asked on the platform. The platform does not have a good interface for the display ofdrawings or mathematical formulae, which are important in upper-division engineering courses.To work around this, this author began to exploit the image upload feature of Kahoot! to upload asingle image containing all drawings, necessary formula, and the multiple choice answerselections [20]. The students then simply choose the shape/color corresponding to ABCD in theKahoot! app. An example of such an image is demonstrated in fig. 2. It can be seen that thegeneric purple kahoot! background that was demonstrated in fig. 1 has been replaced by an imagecontaining the question. This example deals with the strain rate tensor, S, that had been recentlyintroduced in

Currently, course information is uploaded to thechatbot in a semi-automated manner, implementing a fully automated process can be moreproductive and easier for educators and admin users. To improve our chatbot, a new feature willbe added allowing students to provide their feedback on chatbot responses based on relevancy.This will allow us to measure how much student inquiries were successfully resolved.References[1] D.

The inductor current iL and the capacitor voltage vC are the two variables which usually serve asthe control of diode or diode network.If there is only one time-based switch S, the converter operation comprises of two circuit modes: one when theswitch is turned on and the other when the switch is turned off. If there are two time-based switches S1 and S2, theconverter operation may comprise of four circuit modes. If one switch S1 is time based and the other S2 is based onthe circuit conditions such as the current inversion or the polarity inversion of a voltage, the converter operation mayconsist of two, three or four circuit modes.Each circuit mode is

This group deeply elaborated on privacy concernsalready in their first report and used the privacy aspect as a starting point for ideatingsolutions for their challenge: “It is important to find a solution for our challenge as IoT devices are getting more common everyday and it is very likely that soon everyone is an IoT user. Because of this privacy will be an issue, since IoT is important as it guarantees equality and freedom. If IoT devices are not secured, soon everyone will have spying devices at home and the data these devices collect can be used against their users.” (group E, first report)A further four groups (L, N, R, S) increasingly raised privacy concerns.
