Applications were considered complete if they included an application form,personal statement, unofficial transcript(s), and at least one letter of recommendation.Applicant review occurred in two phases: initial screening and PI/mentor review. During theinitial screening, personal statements and recommendation letters were read by the screeningcommittee and scored via a shared rubric. The screening committee was comprised of the REUProgram Director and graduate students and postdoctoral researchers within ReNUWIt. Effortswere made to ensure that each application was read by the REU Program Director and at leastone other individual on the committee. At the end of the initial screening, each application wasbinned as “Yes,” “Maybe,” or “No.”Following the

In week 2,there is a dip in motivation. Most students again find teamwork and discussion helpful. Somecomment heated discussion within their team and difficulty reaching consensus. During week 3,there is an increase in motivation. Many say they enjoy the hands-on rapid prototyping activity.Week 4’s planning activity such as coming up with a materials list gets some students excited.After week 5’s proposal presentation, many students comment that they find sharing their ideasand seeing other students’ ideas interesting.

The address for each sensor is a unique, seven-bit address that is written usingbits one through seven. This is used to identify each device that the Pi is powering [12]. The Pithen sends instructions in the bit zero to the sensor so that it knows to collect data from itsenvironment, allowing the Pi to read from the sensor, and the sensor sends a message back to thePi acknowledging its instructions before data is read from it.
