, skills, and practices ofstudents while creating bridges to engineering and classroom experiences. It is alsocomprehensive because the goal is to improve academic achievement while helping studentsmaintain their identity, connect to their communities, develop a sense of shared responsibility,share their “sensibilities,” and develop critical consciousness. Through a rasquache approach,students will see themselves and their communities in a curriculum that is empowering,transformative, and liberating. The goal would be to replace individualistic perspectives withmore cooperative and active roles from the students and teachers.References[1] J. S. Passel, D. V. Cohn, and M. H.

Quickly in his career, he turned his focus on CAD production drawings on the computer and built a computer division and set standards at the Myers/Schmallenberger Design firm in Columbus, Ohio. In the Early 1990’s, Marty started up his own consulting company doing visualizations and animation for companies in the design industry. Some of his clients included: Rubbermaid, Christian Broadcasting Network, Frigidaire, Hobart Ware-washing Division, Character Builders, and American Greetings. The highlight to his consultant career was working on the 1996 movie ”Space Jam” and had 10 seconds of animation

implementation of bothconventional and regenerative brake systems on both cars and bikes. Before the initial design(Figure 1) of the RE-Brake system was considered, calculations were made based on bikingstatistics and other energy data to determine how much energy could be gained from such a device.These calculations were done using a few pieces of information, primarily the energy lost when a73-kg person is riding a 10-kg bike at 4.4 m/s. The calculation was done using, 1 𝐸 = 𝑚𝑣 2 2where the mass would be the total of mass of the rider and the bike. The energy of this system wasfound to be about 803 joules, if

He wants something that will be appropriate for his wilderness resort. After learning of your vast new knowledge of fluid mechanics, he has asked you to design a fountain. As a member of the National Fluid Power Association, Uncle Mort requires that one or more of the nozzles is controlled by a hydraulic system which will allow the nozzle(s) to move the water jet(s) in some sort of pattern. The water jet(s) from the movable nozzle(s) must be high enough pressure to allow for a sufficient water height. He wants this fountain to be an attraction for his customers

Students are paired up (with an occasional trio, ifnecessary) and given a generic set of instructions explaining that they will perform a ‘scene’ withtheir partner(s) for their peers in approximately ten minutes. These instructions also include somereminders of things to consider that may help them communicate their scene, including tone,volume, body language, and use of relational space (all discussed previously in course content).Students are additionally encouraged to use readily available props as they deem appropriate.Each group is instructed to keep their scene a secret from other groups as they prepare.

graded homeworks are returned to thestudents. The class discussion helps some students, but others remain unclear about the distinctionsbetween the notions of domain, problem in the domain context, and solution. The key questionthat motivated our work was, how do we help students overcome such misconceptions and developdeep understanding?In the CONSIDER approach, following the lecture(s) on the topic, the instructor would post thehomework on the CONSIDER system. The instructor will also specify a deadline by which eachstudent will be required to submit her answer. The homework may be similar to the one abovebut, for this discussion, we assume there is only one question, item (3) from the example. Oncethe instructor has posted the homework, each
addition of engineeringcontent and practices to NGSS does not add additional requirements to the science standardsalready being taught. Although NGSS is not adopted in Oklahoma, the new OklahomaAcademic Science Standards, OAS-S, mirror NGSS. Further, many participants stated that eventhough they did not receive any resources for teaching engineering, they were satisfied with thisbecause they did not teach engineering anyway. This reveals that teachers do not understand thescience standards they are required to teach as part of OAS-S, which require them to beengineering teachers. Some participants’ responses indicated that teachers held misconceptions about thedifficulty or nature of engineering. For example, a few participants mentioned

In addition, we take our deterministic random phase θ in the interval[-π,π]. The problem of detecting the periodical components in a time series (described in (2)) isequivalent to the problem of detecting peaks in a periodogram in2,9.We focus in detecting aperiodicity from (2) in frequency domain and the periodogram that is coordinated at Fourier in9.In spectral analysis, therefore, we take ∆t as sampling time, and we convert it in to frequency bycalculating Nyquist frequency f which is going to observe in frequency domain as double sideband with the interval S f , f from1-2 which can be defined
show typical Mossbauer spectra of iron film prepared by spin coating and sol-gel method respectively. The Mossbauer spectrum of samples prepared by spin coating can befitted with two Lorenzian doublets. This indicates presence of two different forms of iron. Theisomer shift,0.53 m/s relative to iron foil spectrum, and quadrupole splitting, 0.8 mm/s, of line Bagree with octahedrally co-ordinated Fe3+. However, line A shows very little isomer shift, 0.04mm/s relative to iron foil spectrum, and quadrupole splitting of 1.3 mm/s. The isomer shift ofline A is compatible with Fe0 but presence of quadrupole splitting indicates non-symettricelectron density at the site of iron nuclei. But the intensity of line A is significantly lowcompared to line B
