Project 1 took place during the spring of 2022 and was comprised of awindmill generation system. The circuitry utilized in this project includes a basic resistor for thegenerative load along with a basic voltage measurement of this output. There is also a proximitysensor circuit that is used as a tachometer to measure the rotational speed of the windmill.Project 2 took place during the 2023 spring semester and was comprised of a water filtrationsystem.

unwaveringsupport.Introduction and BackgroundFirst-generation college students face many challenges compared to their continuing-generationpeers when pursuing an undergraduate engineering education [1]. First-generation students oftenface additional barriers to success in engineering, like inadequate academic preparation [2], [3], alack of family support [4], and difficulty transitioning to postsecondary education [5], which canlead them to struggle academically [6]. First-generation students must overcome these uniquechallenges in addition to the challenges that are common in the broader population. Thetransition from high school to college not only represents a shift in academic rigor but also asignificant change in the learning environment and culture. In

comprehensively, the undergraduate engineering curriculum should not only besolidly grounded in the fundamentals of engineering but also aim to instill a commitment tolifelong learning in students [1]. It is essential for students to receive exposure to multiple technicaldisciplines so they can broaden their vision of engineering overall [2]. Typically, schools requirestudents to take engineering elective courses outside their primary engineering major, therebyfostering connections with other engineering domains. Electives present an excellent opportunityfor students to showcase their talents, cultivate new interests, and develop additional abilities [3],[4]. Moreover, these elective courses create an environment for students from various

In contrast, active learning techniques, where the instructor is more of a ‘guideon the side’ have been shown to foster a positive learning environment, increase studentengagement, promote communication skills, make the overall learning experience more effectiveand appealing, and improve student grades on summative assessments [3]-[5].

Each problem is aligned with a specific learning target, and a given learningtarget will appear on multiple understanding checks in order to provide extra opportunities andincrease retention. For every learning target, once students fully and correctly justify theirsolutions twice, they have mastered that learning target. Final grades are then calculated based on the number of (1) learning targets that theyhave shown that they have mastered, (2) class preps earned, (3) homework assignmentscompleted, and (4) writing assignments completed.

-in-Progress: Effect of Instructional Practices on Students' Engagement and Performance – A Study DesignAbstract Prior research has focused on examining the effectiveness of student-centered instructionalpractices in conceptually hard STEM courses. However, the effectiveness was measured mainlyby comparing the improvements in students' learning outcomes in new practice against thetraditional approach. Since instructional practices are at the heart of effective teaching, a lack ofstudent-based investigation may lead to critical but often neglected research dimensions. Thesedimensions include: 1) Understanding students' perceptions of new practices. 2) real-timeaccounts of class that could influence students' perceptions 3
