The Fellows surveyed were eitherfacilitators of their own Math Club(s) or assisted the two graduate Fellows in FAME orEnergy Club. This survey was designed to capture the perspective of each person filling Page 13.1235.10out the survey with respect to the student, the teacher, the school, the Fellow or thegraduate Fellow. For example, if a Fellow were filling out the survey, then they wouldthink about their students in the OST Club when answering the question, “Doesparticipation in the OST Club positively affect the students

The individual should consider whether the action is consistent with:Policy/Regulations, Laws/Regulations, Universal societal/organizational values, andself/personal values.AssessmentTo demonstrate that students have a basic understanding of the importance of ethics, I usedseveral methods. At the end of the class session, I asked students to write down what were thetwo most important things they learned in the class. A number of students were surprised athow wide spread the misconduct was at Enron. Several noted that it involved financial

is a coherent rigorous verbal framework specifying aconcept. A discussion of the conflicts between the infinities of everyday experience and formalinfinities based on axioms can be found in reference 12.The interesting conversations13 of a knowledgeable father with his six-year old son, Nic, providean insight on how a child's intuition builds an image of the concept of infinity. In the beginningof the conversations Nic imagines infinity as a very huge number, much bigger than 10, biggerthan a million, probably bigger than a "googol" (1 followed by a hundred 0's). Nic's infinity canbe operated on like any other number in arithmetic ("infinity" + "infinity" = "two infinity", andthere is "half infinity" as well). Nic also invents a number

engine torque by dividing the power by the engine speed in radians/s. Apply the proper unitconversions to express the torque in kN-m.5. Compute the fuel efficiency. The fuel efficiency is defined here as net power divided by the energy content of thefuel supplied. Using the mass of air (m) and specific work per cycle (w) computed above, the lower heating value ofthe fuel (LHV) and the air fuel ratio (AFmass) from the combustion calculation, the efficiency is given as ηfuel = (mairℜw)/(mfuelℜLHV) = (AFmass w)/(LHV)6. Repeat the steps above for complete combustion with 130% theoretical air.7. Repeat the steps above for combustion with 80% theoretical air. Assume that the products contain unburned fuel(5% of the

The pre-survey is provided duringthe first week of the program. The post-survey is provided during the last week of the program.Survey responses are collected and de-identified before being made available to the PI. The firstyear of the VisREU Site resulted in lackluster student participation—less than 4 studentscompleted surveys. Greater effort was made in 2015 to stress the importance of feedback. As aresult, 92% (11 out of 12) students completed pre-surveys, 67% (8 out of 12) completed post-surveys. The following sections present survey responses from 2015 VisREU Cohort

With these teaching objectives, there were some specific objectives the board design had toachieve. These design objectives are listed below. • The board should be easy to solder • The board should be sufficiently low-cost to account for mistakes • The board should have a prototyping area The OwlBoard is based on a modified open source Numato Mimas board, which is men-tioned in Section 5.2.
