Experiments for Protection and Automation in Microgrid Power Systems California Polytechnic State UniversityAbstractThis project establishes practical laboratory coursework facilitating students to operate,coordinate, and integrate microprocessor protective relays in a low-voltage three-phasemicrogrid system. Three laboratory experiments are developed to serve as the laboratorycomponent to an existing power system protection lecture course. The laboratory courseworkdevelopment is part of the Cal Poly electrical engineering department’s Advanced PowerSystems Initiatives, which aim to modernize power engineering curriculum to more effectivelyeducate power students and prepare them for the rapidly changing power

It was developed as a community outreach and marketing toolfor Oregon Tech’s Computer Systems Engineering Technology (CSET) department with supportfrom Oregon Tech Commission on College Teaching and Microchip Corporation. This boardwas designed to be a recruiting tool for potential students, and to engage the community inSTEM. Participants can build the board, program the board, and then take the board home forfurther design and exploration. Many activities targeting younger STEM students focused onphysical (Lego Mindstorms or similar) or virtual (coding only). This project was an attempt toincorporate both hardware and software based concepts into one tool.In Spring of 2015, the Owlet board

The field of nanoscience is growing exponentially over the past years and nanotechnology is impacting our daily lives in many ways 1. The National Science Foundation (NSF) estimates that the job projection for nanotechnology will cover around several million workers worldwide and about $3 trillion in sales for nanotechnology related products by 20202. With this demand, nanotechnology education is being offered by more and more universities around the world. This implies the importance of the education and training on a new generation of skilled individuals in nanotechnology. In other words, it is necessary to have an effective teaching and

to be oneskill or knowledge that electrical engineering students in general do not possess4 is the magneticcomponent design. Electrical engineering students are so accustomed to using commerciallyavailable inductors or transformers whenever they need to use them in their projects. Often timesthis approach is not practical as commercially available magnetic components are limited in theirstandard values. Furthermore, power semiconductor companies many times require their newelectrical engineers to have the basic magnetic design skill enough to design and build their ownmagnetic components for their prototype products. This in turn will reduce company’s time toproduction as well as minimize prototyping cost. To address this issue, Cal Poly

First-year engineering students participated in a project-basedengineering design process curriculum with a service-learning component. Students wereassigned weekly reading materials to be discussed in-class using a four stage Flip-J process. Thestages were: 1) individual reading assignments outside of classroom; 2) in-class formation ofcollaborative expert groups; 3) in-class formation of cooperative Jigsaw groups and 4) in-classreflection exercises. More than 80% of the students indicated a productive experience from thecooperative learning strategy used. Students’ feedback also included recommendations
