When reflecting on their civic and community engagement, studentsassociated the ability to respond to a cardiac arrest more strongly than their ability to apply design-thinking skills to address community needs. This may indicate a stronger association with medicalprofessionals helping the community. The results from this qualitative analysis will be used to develop asurvey to examine other preconceptions about engineering as well as evaluate the efficacy of the module.References[1] Kotche, M., Felder, A.

future recruitment efforts to attract engineering students with a diverse background,particularly the underrepresented populations. This paper reported progress of the first objective.Introduction/BackgroundThe importance of diversity in the U. S. engineering workforce has been recognized. Lack ofworkforce diversity in engineering fields has been related to the poor recruitment and retentionof educationally disadvantaged students or underrepresented groups in engineering [1]. Researchhas identified factors preventing those students from pursuing and completing a STEM degreeand strategies to increase diversity in STEM programs such as summer camps/bridge programs,pipeline programs, pre-college programs, targeted programs, and integrated approach

ConclusionThis paper presents preliminary work of the implementation of object detection on Raspberry Pi for asenior design project. We run a mobile deep learning model, SSD-MobileNet, on Raspberry Pi todetect various objects. Preliminary valudation results demonstrate the effectiveness of thisimplementation. Moreover, the on-going work is to improve weapon detection. Future work will focuson completing comprehensive and systematical validation on weapon detection in different testingscenarios.

A 3-feet-long integratedPZT strip of 18 thin-film PZT cells was placed in the middle of the EGP. The prototype of the EGPwas tested using an output load of 7.5 kΩ. A bicycle with a rider weighing a total of about 142pounds served as the mechanical pressure source for the test. The tested PZT cells produced anaverage of 68 VDC, and the energy of the DCPR was 616.53 mW/s for the rider riding the bike onthe EGP.

remains a dominantideology in public opinion, professional practice, academic policy, and law in the U. S. today [1].The legal definition of disability in the U. S. exemplifies the medical model. Section 3 of theAmericans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and its 2008 amendment defines disability, with respectto an individual, as “(A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more ofthe major life activities of such individual; (B) a record of such an impairment; or (C) beingregarded as having such an impairment” [34]. The second model, called the social model ofdisability, emerged in the late 20th century [15] and has quickly become a widespreadepistemology in disability studies [35]. The social model posits disability as a
