. The dream of an autonomous vehicle has been there for almost acentury. It can be said that the first “autonomous” vehicle was Stanford Cart which was built in1961. The automated car concept was evolved truly in 1980s with Carnegie Melon University’sNavLab and ALV projects which resulted in ALVINN which used a neural network to drive [8].The automotive industries are conducting significant research and development efforts in thearea of autonomous vehicles. The major automotive companies like Toyota, Ford, MercedesBenz, BMW, Volvo have announced their plans for creating an autonomous car. In the racetowards autonomous vehicles, Tesla and Waymo (from Google) are two of the most advancedcompanies. In 2014, Google introduced Google car with camera

The regional robotics competition will be held in fall 2020, and itwill be West Virginia’s first girls-only VEX robotics competition. Through attending the roboticsclubs and competition, female middle school and high school students are expected to becomemore knowledgeable and interested in STEM disciplines.The specific implementation plan has the following four tasks.

theirgovernment. Everything in the business trip was going as planned because, being a Bengali by birth, I knewthe local language and the culture very well. On the last day of negotiation, I was supposed to travel toDacca, the country’s capital to sign some final documents. The meeting was scheduled during the earlymorning hours. So my chauffeur and I woke up very early, and started driving before daybreak. Therewere no traffic jams during those early hours and the drive was smooth without any problem. When wereached the outskirt of Dacca I felt very relaxed thinking that we had arrived just in time to sign those veryimportant final papers of the negotiation. At that very moment my chauffeur slowed down the car andneatly parked it at a safe sidewalk. He

thisprocess to finish the workshop with an "Integrated Course Plan" that will best enablestudent learning.The university coordinator for assessment and curriculum design commented aboutleading the course design process: The instructors really wanted to start with lengthy conversations about content and who was going to teach what, when. They struggled to see the reason for backing up and starting off with articulating goals and outcomes. But when they started to see how the goals and outcomes guided their thinking and allowed them to better work together to coordinate the various courses and align student learning they seemed to really embrace the process. I was so impressed with the conversations they had

The three pathwaysincluded the main campus-honors program, the main campus-standard program, and a regionalcampus. We selected only three pathways for the pilot because the main goal of the pilot was torefine the protocol, which we felt could be accomplished using a smaller sample of students andpathways then planned for the full study data collection. Further, we chose these three pathwaysbecause we felt it would provide a representative enough sample for the interview protocolrefinement. We recruited participants through an announcement of the study made during theirintroductory engineering course. A follow up email was then sent to the students with a link to

reconnect with their children in a positive way upon their release. We have some pre-planned assignments, such as a moon weight calculator which asks for auser’s weight on earth and calculates his or her weight on the moon. We also build flexibilityinto the curriculum, incorporating student ideas whenever possible. For example, after workingon the moon weight calculator program, a student said “I wonder if we could use the same ideato come up with a sentencing calculator?”. The sentencing calculator involved accepting as input(a) an initial sentence duaration, (b) eligibility for “half time” and (c) if you were good and gotyour 10% “kick”. This program was exciting to create because we hadn’t yet discussed “if”statements. We had to work around

the “corerelationship” of learning. When instructors and students come from different culturalbackgrounds, planned efforts to cross social borders and develop caring, respectful relationshipsare essential. From the very first day of school, teachers can set the tone by greeting students atthe door with a smile and a warm, welcoming comment. Greeting second language learners witha phrase in their native language can be especially affirming. Teachers can also forge positiverelationships with students by sharing stories about their lives outside of school, learning aboutstudents’ interests and activities, inviting them to make choices and decisions about classactivities, and listening to their concerns and opinions.In addition to establishing

Equipment for the class can be inexpensive because high qualityand accuracy of 3D printed pressure sensor are not required for educational purposes. The increasein the use of 3D/4D printing technology and smart material in industry implies that companies willbe looking for engineers with the interdisciplinary skills and knowledge

Further research is warranted from these findings to assess linksbetween high school preparation and STEM performance at the university level.

hypothesis is that if students strengthenspatial skills and earn a higher grade in their credit-bearing course this will subsequently lead togreater persistence and degree completion. The final spatial skills course was delivered in fall2017, a semester longer than originally planned. This no-cost extension allowed the project togather an additional semester’s worth of student course and persistence data. The communitycollege partners are currently collecting data about student enrollment since the semester inwhich they completed the PSVT:R pre assessment, grades, and graduation status to allow for thisanalysis.Another area the study is currently examining is the impact of using the iPad for sketchingpractice on student outcomes.
