Institutional ContextTraining teaching assistants is a relatively new practice in higher education, and the catalyst forprograms differs in the US and UK. In the US, there are no standardized guidelines at the federallevel for teacher preparedness in higher education whereas the training that Imperial CollegeLondon conducts in the UK is largely informed by national government mandate.

Prominent among the instructionalstrategies was the use of various formative assessment approaches to adjust instruction whileproviding evidence of student progress in using design practices and engineering concepts in aninformed way. Tasks included: Triad Sorting, proposing and applying Design Rules-of-Thumb,Small Group Discussions, Interviews, using Contrasting Cases and reflecting on design practiceusing an Informed Design Rubric. These approaches were used in a context where human-centered designing and “design with us, not for us” was emphasized. Design thinking was introduced and elaborated upon in a variety of ways

Theuniversal optical conductance model matches reflection data for graphene flakes up to ninelayers thick. However, achieving maximum sensitivity at the desired wavelength necessitatesprecise control over oxide thickness and oxide index of refraction. Another proposed methodutilizes transmission or reflection optical microscopy to determine the number of graphenemonolayers on various substrates [4]. Image modification through software analysis yields a 3Dmodel of few layers of graphene on any substrate. However, this method relies on classical, time-consuming techniques like AFM and Raman spectroscopy for
