The learning outcomes stated in the course syllabusare: 1. Develop a fundamental knowledge of the working principles behind various sensors and transducers, including their response and calibration for static and dynamic responses. 2. Acquire analog signals utilizing benchtop / handheld equipment (multimeter, oscilloscope) and National Instruments* data acquisition (DAQ) hardware with LabVIEW* 3. Conduct, analyze, and

In these, material dealing withethics is not considered separate from the main topics of the engineering course, but instead asinextricably related to it as blood is when infused into a human body. Infusions of ethics mayentail complicated course planning that can be a challenge for educators who are inexperiencedin method and topic areas, but they can nonetheless be strong options for helping engineeringstudents see ethical implications in their work.A “high dose” of ethics, on the other hand, might entail a larger-scale endeavor such as adedicated course of study focused explicitly on engineering ethics

Moregenerally, it is estimated that industrial economies return much of the raw material to theenvironment as waste, within one year of extraction (8). There are technological and societalbarriers towards overcoming the conventional linear cycle of consumption. A societal challengeis the flow of electronic waste between countries, for example from the United States to China.However, the focus of the RET Site was to provide research projects based on the naturalsciences for the teachers, so the issue of electronic waste export was not explicitly addressed.Instead, teachers focused on characterizing and solve technical challenges.

Therefore, work is being done to design assessment that allows for student freedomwith strategies like project-based learning and learning portfolios [5]. These forms of assessmentderive from work on open-ended learning environments and self-regulated learning. Open-endedlearning is a pedagogical approach that harnesses students’ intrinsic motivation to learn [6], andself-regulated learning is when students make goals and evaluate their learning in order topractice metacognition [7].

There was a repeatedissue of the soil moisture sensor generating incorrect readings, and not just working “backwards,” butworking in strange ways all together. The problem that caused this was loose wiring. To fix this, wireswere glued together where needed, and taped down to the Arduino Uno case so they would not comeloose again.Knowledge and experience on selecting and using appropriate sensors for plants development that weregained in this senior design capstone project led the authors and undergraduate students to be recentlyinvolved in a major USDA grant award titled “Design and Development of a Handheld InfraredThermography Device for Nondestructive Rapid
