implementation of bothconventional and regenerative brake systems on both cars and bikes. Before the initial design(Figure 1) of the RE-Brake system was considered, calculations were made based on bikingstatistics and other energy data to determine how much energy could be gained from such a device.These calculations were done using a few pieces of information, primarily the energy lost when a73-kg person is riding a 10-kg bike at 4.4 m/s. The calculation was done using, 1 𝐸 = 𝑚𝑣 2 2where the mass would be the total of mass of the rider and the bike. The energy of this system wasfound to be about 803 joules, if

Mathematics) wasdeveloped by the NSF (National Science Foundation), beginning as SMET and settling as STEMin 2001 [2]. The disciplines were grouped because it was recognized that they all emphasizeproblem solving and critical thinking skills [3]. STEM has been recognized in educationalreports since the 1980’s [2]. Though each discipline within STEM stands apart, they are alsointertwined-for example, physics and chemistry play a role in engineering and ET, and math isstudied in all disciplines [4]. STEM does not include the arts in this grouping.STEAM (Science, Engineering, Technology, Arts, and Mathematics) is an acronym developed atthe Arts-National Policy Roundtable in 2007 [5].

They state thatfieldnotes can often be written from multiple perspectives.

Even though Feldon etal.’s study on graduate student teaching presents “direct, performance-based evidence ofimprovement on specific research skills associated with teaching experiences that complementtraditional graduate research training”[16], teaching is still considered a separate role withoutpositive impacts on research or the faculty career.
