Diffusion of educational innovations is a challenge that has defied a satisfactory solutionfor decades as evidenced by the many references in the literature; for example, Borrego [2] statesthat “despite decades of effort focused on improvement of engineering education, many recentadvances have not resulted in systemic change”. Felder and Hadgraft [3] state “… if engineeringfaculties could be induced to put into practice everything we currently know about teaching andlearning …, then we would achieve innovation with impact to an extent beyond the wildestdreams of the most idealistic reformers. The question then becomes, how can we do that?” The goal of this project is to

It is not uncommon for engineers to face the challenge ofworking with constantly changing teams, and as such it is important to understand membershipchange, its overarching effects on outcomes, and how to survive it.Membership change Promotions, selection, layoffs, retirement, role transitions, and absenteeism are just a fewreasons that members may be removed or added to a team7.

Ninety nine (76%) of these students were supported via funding from the NationalScience Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates program. The other 32 (24%)were supported through institutional funds. More than half of the students (56.5%) were female,26.7% of the students were from underrepresented groups, and 52.7% students without previousresearch experience.

Page 26.10.21 IntroductionRetina is a light-sensitive layer of tissue (Figure 1), located at the inner surfaceof the eye. The optics of the eye creates an image on the retina, similar tothe film in a camera. Light striking the retina activates nerve impulses. Thesepulses are sent to various parts of the brain through the optic nerve. Retinascans require that the person removes their glasses, place their eye close tothe scanner. A retinal scan involves the use of a low-intensity coherent lightsource, which is projected onto the retina . A retina scan cannot be faked andit is impossible to forge a human retina. Furthermore, the retina of a deceasedperson decays too rapidly to be used to deceive a retinal scan [17, 18]. Therecognition of a

Also, the students expressed strong interest to further improve theirproblem-solving skills through similar future sessions.
