The success of the first in-personSTEM workshop signifies the potential for future outreach events in collaboration with RBTVand other partners. Insights from survey data will be instrumental in refining future engineeringactivities, aiming to enhance the interest and engagement of female students across variousSTEM modules.7.

Thecompetition team students who participated in the project said they gained more practicalexperience. However, they noted that it required dedication and time commitment. To betterassist the capstone students in the future, several sites and data will be provided for students whowould like an experience similar to the competition project. The capstone requirements would bemodified if they chose this option as their capstone project. This will not impact the capstoneproject timeline while providing a competition-like experience.References[1] A. S. Baitule and K. Sudhakar, “Solar Powered Green Campus: A simulation study

by SDU Robotics, which allows for programmatic control of the UR3 arm. The demo will explain key concepts such as controlling joint variables, defining the robot's pose (position and orientation), and using motion commands (movej for joint-based motion and movel for linear motion). Additionally, students will learn how to utilize kinematic functions like getForwardKinematics and getInverseKinematics to calculate positions and joint values for the robotic arm. Students are provided with sample Python code that demonstrates how to control the UR3’s movements and operate the attached Robotiq gripper. The code will serve as a foundation for Lab Assignment #1, where students must modify the

During the summer prior to the apprenticeship, a full list of all students in theaccepted major(s) was requested from the school and was filtered by GPA and course creditcompletion. Then the remaining students were individually reviewed for program eligibility, andindividual outreach was conducted over the summer to form a cohort of interested and eligibleapprenticeship applicants.Toward the beginning of the Fall semester, a member of Career Services responsible forcoordinating the apprenticeship program began conducting individual meetings with students.These sessions were typically 45

, but not on GPA, because there are more grades that exceed100% that provide no benefit to a GPA increase. Spring 2010 currently has a 94.2% average,while Spring 2009 had an 87.1% average, Spring 2007 had an 86.5% average and Spring 2008had an 88.9% average. Partly contributory to Spring 2010’s higher grade is the incoming GPAof the students. Furthermore, the first midterm exam was completed with an 84.8% averagewhich significantly reduced their course average at this point. The reduction of requiredassignments has hindered the student’s ability to complete an exam satisfactorily within a timelimit due to lack of practice.

they apply to college students today. These theories are Classical Conditioning,Operant Conditioning and Social Learning. We will all recognize the learning patterns of ourstudents in all three theories. Classical Conditioning Classical Conditioning grew out of experiments to teach dogs to salivate in response to the ringing of a bell, conducted in the early 1900’s by Russian Psychologist Ivan Pavlov.4 This study connects an unconditioned stimulus to a conditioned stimulus and eventually to an unconditioned response. But students seldom learn as a response to a stimulus so this theory doesn’t really apply to college learning. Operant Conditioning Operant Conditioning is much more applicable to

U.S.A. The primary avenue of getting a job in the U.S.A. for a person who is not a citizen or a permanent resident is the H1-B visa (work visa).2 Due to immigration policies, it is easier to get the F-1 (student) visa and convert the status into H1-B after completion of the degree than directly getting the H1-B1 . Anecdotes tell that in the flourishing dot-com era of late 1990’s, many post-bachelor’s Ph.D. students would belured away by the companies. That may be the reason that in some schools it is difficult, de jure or de facto, for afunded post-bachelor’s student to get an M.S. diploma even after completing the equivalent course works.2 Obtaining employment based permanent residency (the “green card”) for getting a

Note that theblinking red light turns on. This occurs because output 0 (O:0/0) of the PLC is activated from 0, OFF to1, ON. Referencing rung 2 of the ladder logic diagram in Appendix A, it is seen that O:0/0 (portrayed asa load on the right side of rung 1 of the ladder logic diagram) is activated when input 5 (I:0/5, a ladderlogic switch) is activated to 1, ON. This is done by physically moving toggle switch 1 of the 1796SIM1500 Input Simulator in the up position, completing the 24 VDC circuit.

the first semester, the instructors encouraged students to use “DesignThinking” to guide their efforts in defining the elements in the exhibit (which correspond tostudent projects). The Design Thinking steps are: empathizing with the customer (i.e., theparticipant, in the case of the exhibit), defining the elements in the exhibit, ideating about how torealize the elements, and next to make and test low fidelity prototypes (that is, prototypes madewith a relatively small investment in time and energy and just good enough to be able to tell ifthe current approach is good).
