increasing attention from many stakeholders in academia includingfaculty, staff, administrators and students. Its significance goes beyond the benefits for theacademic institutions to encompass national concerns.At a large land-grant university in the mid-Atlantic region, between 2003 and 2012, an averagethirty percent of first-year engineering students left engineering before their second year. Athree-year study (2007-2010) implemented to gain insight into this attrition rate, showed thatstudents left primarily because of lack of interest in and knowledge about engineering and theinstitution, disconnection from the engineering profession, low self-efficacy and academicdifficulty. Underrepresented minority (URM) students left at a disproportionately

computing andeach requires a different skill set. It seems like people in these fields have a preference for beingtaught differently. Is it possible to predict in which computing discipline an incoming freshmanwould succeed based on their learning style? Previous research has shown a correlation betweenlearning style and academic success, but does this correlation also exist for computingstudents?In the 1970s, David Kolb developed a model to represent learning styles. His model works on atwo-axis system: concrete experience (CE) versus abstract conceptualization (AC), and reflectiveobservation (RO) versus active experimentation (AE). The x-axis, AE−RO, differentiatesbetween students who learn by doing or by seeing results, and those who prefer to

They soon provedto be one of the most simple, the most insightful, and the most popular instruments that studentsuse in an AC power laboratory at this university. Their primary focus in this Energy Systems IIlab is for the synchronization between an AC generator and the local power grid. When federallegislation made their incandescent light bulbs obsolete in 2014, a replacement instrument designbecame necessary.

demographics of our country are changing at a rapid pace. According to thelast American Community Survey (ACS) from the Census Data (2015), 71.81% of schoolage individuals, who are speakers of languages other than English, identified themselvesas Spanish speakers. Soon, Hispanics and Latinx will become the largest minority in ournation. In this population, 60% of the households are considered by the system as LimitedEnglish Proficiency with low levels of college attainment (US Census, 2015). Yet, yearsof educational reform have no resulted in educational gains for students who are Englishlearners.

The travel time test requires that both 120 V ac (for thecompressor) and 125 V dc (for the controls) be provided to the breaker. On the breaker tested, alarge spring is used to open the interrupters, while a pneumatic system is used to close thebreaker. A Doble TDR900 is used to perform the test.

Outside of the solar panels themselves, the inverters arethe most important constituent of the solar power system as they take the DC electrical powerthat the solar panels produce and convert it into AC power before injecting it onto the grid. Thegoal of this project is to compare the performance of solar panel arrays fitted with stringinverters, DC power optimizers, and micro-inverters.

Research has shown that using student-centered active learning strategies in theclassroom leads to enhanced learning (Benson et al., 2010). According to Towner (2017),engineering education must be re-evaluated to increase “value added time” in the classroom.Therefore, it is important to incorporate teaching methods that provide more opportunities forstudent learning and development of critical skills.Based on information provided in existing literature, three different in-class instructionalmethods were evaluated in college classrooms in Canada and the United

The mechanism of this effect is easy to appreciate –if panels get dirty, the dirt on the top of the panel glazing reduces the transmission of light to thesilicon semiconductor, and as a result photocurrent is greatly reduced. The effect is similar tohaving the panels shaded by a tree or other such obstruction. What many people find surprisingis that even for systems with annual cleaning regimens, reductions in panel performance due tosoiling frequently are found to be as much as 10-15% loss of electrical output. In extreme caseswhere panels are not inspected/maintained, the surface may become completely opaque withgrime
