build a professional network with the possibility of future employment. A potential long‐term benefit of this experience could be an increased number of off‐site internships. After past interns see the benefit of the program, they may offer similar opportunities to future interns, thus continuing to influence future curriculum, mentorship and ultimately ensuring an industry‐ready student pipeline.

Given the right opportunity, I wouldteach this course again, or another course using a similar format.

is that we had more content than we couldreasonably address within time available for the course, so focusing on objectives and outcomeshelped us pare the material down to its most important components.A revised version of Bloom’s Taxonomy [3] was used to write learning outcomes and objectivesin measurable terms. As a result of an iterative process between SME and curriculum designers,course level learning objectives were aligned with the learning outcomes; likewise, module-levellearning objectives were aligned to course-level learning objectives to ensure that each learningmodule could help learners to achieve intended learning outcomes. To exemplify this point, thetable below lists learning outcomes, course-level objectives, and Module 1’s

The coursedirector utilized the textbook companion website by assigning questions associated with thereadings for each content lesson. The due dates for these assignments were consolidated intothree blocks aligned with the three major exams in the course, but organized by lesson, making itclear to which what reading assignment they were linked.

needed forunderstanding the demonstration and the learning points for successfully completing thequestionnaire which the students filled out immediately following the lecture. The primaryteaching points are summarized in condensed form below. The lecture began by discussing the industrial revolution and the need for power sources to drive the machines which transformed our modern society. o Water wheels were replaced by generators and the electric motor, which is essentially a generator operated in reverse, began to drive the machines. o Wide-scale use of DC electric motors began in the late 1800’s. These motors take advantage of the properties of electric and magnetic fields. o Electric current flowing in a wire will
and success is tightly correlated with a sense of belonging, between student peers andbetween students and their program. By bringing full-time faculty into close and persistentcontact with students in the fall freshman year and throughout the curriculum, the engineeringprograms at York College of Pennsylvania hope to create an environment where students feelsupported and encouraged to survive the significant challenges of an undergraduate engineeringeducation.References [1] ABET, “Criteria for Accrediting Engineering Programs, 2019 – 2020,” ABET, 2018.

impact on the surface it is driving on. The prototyping for the crawlerinvolves some very advanced technologies, using a camera to allow the robot to see, and giving itthe ability to decipher objects and defects from the functional interior of the plane is one of thechallenges they are still trying to overcome. This project has been substantially helped out bythings such as CAD programs and rapid prototyping aids that let the project move ahead muchfaster. This is more important when using new materials such as polymers and carbon fiber.Presentation #5Title: The Evolution of Urban Manufacturing – 1970 to PresentAbstract: This presentation reviewed the state of Urban Manufacturing during the 1970’s incontrast to its condition today, using

Critics view (Peterson 2006; Lee & Neal 2010;Weinberger 2005) folksonomies as unsophisticated, unsystematic, interpretive, and subjective,but those in favor of social tagging point out the value of collaborative indexing and groupintelligence (Avery 2010).

The other thoughtexperiments that Mermin subsequently developed are more appropriate for an advancedaudience; the devices he describes do not require perfectly correlated particles. The concept ofentanglement is fundamental to quantum mechanics and was first introduced by Schrödinger in1935. However, as Schroeder [9] points out, the word has been virtually absent from publicationuntil the 1980’s. Various aspects of quantum computation are revisited throughout the course asMATLAB projects. These projects escalate in complexity and are used to reinforce the value
