haveincorporated a value sorting activity into the second semester first-year engineering course. Inthis activity students have reflected on their personal values and completed an activity toidentify their top value. They then worked together with their assigned design project teams todiscuss their value and why it is important to them. Teams have been encouraged to use thoseidentified values as they think about how their team will operate and in writing a team workingagreement. Recently this idea has organically taken hold in most classes, but moving forwardwe plan to formally incorporate this activity in all sections. Additionally, we are planning toincorporate more explicit diversity, equity, and inclusion content as it relates to teamwork. Weplan to

In the proposal assignment, students were developing a persuasive argument to convince theirtarget audience to take some desired action (greenlight a project, fund some research, implementa new approach). The goal of the concept map was to provide students with an alternative form fororganizing their thoughts and recognizing what gaps remained in their understanding of, researchon, or argument for their topic. The assignment included a brief reflection asking the students toshare what new connections the map allowed them to see and what “unfinished business” itsurfaced. Students

From the students’perspective, this study seeks to reduce “D”, “F” and “W” grades and helps students to improvetheir grades more towards “A” and “B” by increasing their learning. Also, with this experience,in the long run, this transformation of the traditional classroom to an active learning environmentcan be extended to other courses like Fluids Mechanics, Controls, Machine Design, etc.Moreover, this learning approach promises to increase student success in a core course likedynamics, which should positively impact students’ performance in subsequent courses in theME department.Fig 1

thedifferences in ESS operation for different facilities, the differences between ESSs, and thebenefits of ESSs in load leveling. The results demonstrate that intermittent process facility(typical manufacturer) requires a larger ESS to shave many peaks to achieve a desired DR.Furthermore, the results provide insight towards the weaknesses of some ESSs when comparedto others, leading to areas of future development. For example, the lifetime of Pb-acid ESSs isthe shortest, so research should be conducted to extend the lifetime of this ESS. Also, the resultsreveal a demand profile becoming flatter as the DR is increased.Acknowledgement This material is based upon work supported by Salt River Project (SRP) under award number98-153C MOD49 NonEE.References
