. Since its firstconception, IoT came a long way in consumer products and industrial applications. Numerousresearch projects have been conducted; and, countless research papers have been published.IoT gained momentum in recent years and became one of the hottest topics in the IndustrialDesign (ID) discipline. IoT transformed the way once acceptable design methodologies intoobsolete. New design disciplines started to emerge to solve complex information architectureproblems. The consumer market is experiencing a growth of products that work by networking“things” with sensors. House appliances with sophisticated sensors help owners by carrying outhouse chores. Autonomous homes control indoor climate while the owners are not present.Smart devices

This result was due to a biased sampling; the four juniors taking the special topic course initiated the effort, and the sophomores that attended regularly were invited by the instructor. We hope to see better understanding of basic principles and excellent performance in the future versions of the course.ConclusionsStatistics Literacy and critical thinking is necessary in today’s world that is fascinated withnumbers and data.

Thus, this project focuses on ruralcommunities to understand how key stakeholders and organizations support engineering as amajor choice and addresses the following questions:RQ1. What do current undergraduate engineering students who graduated from rural high schools describe as influences on their choice to attend college and pursue engineering as a post-secondary major?RQ2. How does the college choice process differ for rural students who enrolled in a 4-year university immediately after graduating from high school and those who transferred from a 2-year institution?RQ3.

Whenever instructors choose to use these indirectcommunication strategies, they need to provide students with explicit lessons on how nondirective verbal interventions are actually “code” for direct commands.Instructors interviewed in this study mentioned that email communications to some middle-eastern students sometimes seemed less effective, these students preferred face to facecommunication.

Thisscheduling preserved the 5 contact hours of the standard sequence. However, due to the doubleperiod day being used for laboratory activities 4 times per quarter and projects/recitation 6 timesper quarter, that day only counted as 1 credit hour toward the total.The laboratory activities discussed in this paper were developed to enhance the Calculus Ivariant. The labs were developed by one group of faculty and tested by another group during
