classroom and laboratory has been funded by the National ScienceFoundation (NSF) over the last twenty years. His work has led to at least one textbook [5]adopting the micro-insertion approach to incorporate ethical decision making into the end-of-chapter problems.Micro-insertion inserts new content at the micro-scale of a course. For example, Riley et al. [6]describe how ethics can be micro-inserted into a course by expanding the context of technicalhomework problems. A traditional calculation-based problem would be expanded by asking thestudent to evaluate an ethics issue based on their calculation. An instructor hesitant to sacrifice aportion of their course to an unrelated topic is more likely to adopt micro-insertion when shownthat properly

Students can use this tool tohelp them visualize an example as if they were watching the forces being applied in a laboratory,as well as better understand the reactions, steps, and concepts in additional examples. Sampleframes of an animation are shown in Figure 2.

This survey, which took approximately tenminutes to complete, was a slightly modified version of the Friday Institute’s S-STEM survey[16] which has been shown to be a valid instrument for understanding student attitudes fordifferent STEM disciplines. Second, focus group interviews related to attitudes and interests inengineering were conducted.

Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (NEEA) in which utilities, such as theSnohomish PUD and Puget Sound Energy, were tasked to increase distribution efficiencythrough implementation of CVR. Research suggested that CVR provided energy savings and areduction in peak demand but development came to a halt due to lack of funding [3].A report about the effects of CVR on a national level was published by the Pacific NorthwestNational Laboratory (PNNL) in 2010. The study found that implementing CVR on everydistribution feeder in the United States will provide a 3.04% reduction in annual energyconsumption. In 2017, the total electricity demand of the United States was 4.01 trillion kWh;therefore, a savings of 3.04% would reduce electricity consumption by

All courseware was available to students at nocost, including the development environment supporting the HDL, which allowed students tocomplete the experiments outside of the lab.
