- level mathematical language for technical computing. In manyuniversities and colleges it is the standard instructional tool for courses in mathematics,engineering, technology, and science. In industry it is widely used as a tool for analysis,development and research. MATLAB integrates computation, visualization andprogramming in an environment that is easy to learn and use.From the point of view of its usage, MATLAB is mainly an interactive system. At thecommand line the user types statements expressed in familiar mathematical notation,and the system responds immediately with the solution of the request. For instance, tocreate a plot of the function t*sin(t) for the time interval 0 to 20 in steps of 0.05, wewould type t

literate public. The working hypothesis was thatmost of the students would be familiar with these concepts through exposure in lower divisionelectrical engineering, calculus, and calculus-based physics coursework. In selecting theconcepts, we drew upon the Dictionary of Cultural Literacy to validate that the majority of theconcepts are truly essential to a broad grasp of popular science and technology. Our practice hasbeen to administer the inventory at the beginning and end of the semester to cadres of studentsthat enrolled in an analog electronics course. We will present data collected over the last twosemesters to illustrate major misconceptions and significant gains obtained through the course.1. IntroductionABET 2000 student outcome criteria

Furthermore, benefits to bothfaculty and students have been noted by those who have practiced team-based learning methods3.However, team-based learning also presents challenges to both students and instructors4.

Worldeducation rankings show the US lagging behind other nations in developing STEM skills [1]. Inorder to help overcome this widening gap, the US began a push for STEM opportunities for K-12students outside of schools, especially for reach underrepresented minority (URM) students whomay not have equal access to STEM opportunities. In 2007, the University of Arkansas Collegeof Engineering (UACOE) began offering summer programs to increase STEM exposure. In thesecamps, students are free to develop

The public health topics of health disparities (HD) and social determinants of health (SDOH) are becoming vital components to medical curriculum engaging medical students as socially responsible physicians that can mitigate health inequities in their future profession. As these programs adapt to the inclusion of public health topics, as should engineering curriculum that relies deeply on the collaboration with clinical experts for translation of engineering health technologies. These shared principles may improve the ability for engineers on multidisciplinary teams to become competent on the social responsibilities of translating DDS to people and how they may impact health inequities.

Thestudents were asked to rate the ILOs for each of the six modules in the course on a scale of 1 to 5(5
