. Themanual robot control and lead-through programming session deals with manipulating varioussmall objects. The computer programming task (two week session) is to have the robot write aword (student’s name) on an 8 ½ by 11 inch sheet of paper. Students’ evaluation survey, collectedwith the lab reports at the end of lab sections, plays an important role of “closing the loop” instudents’ experiential learning process. Figure 1: Laboratory setup for the RV-M2 robot.Hardware Setup The robot system setup, shown in Fig.1, includes the RV-M2 robot arm, the teach pendant, thecontrol module, and a computer. The robot arm can be controlled manually by a teach pendant orprogrammatically by a Q-Basic program, which originally run on an

For the readmode, the input is Sense ENable (SEN). The outputs are the differential voltage outputsreferenced as Q for the left side of the circuit and Q’ for the right side of the circuit. For the writemode, there are four inputs: WEN1, WEN2, WEN3, and WEN4.The three inverters that appear directly around the MTJs are the write drivers.

pattern was distinguished by the phrase “I feel” as well as the word“just.” The use of “just” seemed to reference an innate feeling the student had about theirattitudes and beliefs, rather than a specific affinity towards some trait such as creativity or actionsuch as problem solving. Students expressed two kinds of emotional responses to belongingness:comfort and enjoyment. An excerpt from Candace’s interview transcript is an example ofstudents’ comfort towards being in engineering. Q: Do you feel like you belong in engineering? Candace: Yes. I don't know, I've just never felt like I wasn't in the right place or I wasn't- I guess I've never felt like I didn't belong, so I don't know why I feel like I do belong, but

itemsbut are dependent on each other. If students find that they include a dimension or force in theequations of equilibrium that is not in the FBD then they must go back and add it in.Emphasizing the idea that the equations of equilibrium are driven by the free body diagram hashelped students develop a clearer understanding of how and why FBDs are important to theproblem solving process. In practice, instructors write ABCD ⇒E on the board frequently whendrawing free body diagrams as a constant reminder.Let’s take a look at an example from Hibbeler’s text at how this maps to what’s already done.(Pearson has granted permission to use these images.)To avoid confusion with the discussion of the technique, the point locations are renamed to be P,Q

Watch the motion of the point, Q, in the tilted plane directly above P.Say the motion of P starts when Q is highest. Q will be observed to descend monotonically to aminimum and then rise monotonically back to its starting height.We can now derive the relationship between the height of the point Q and the angle that P makesin the x-y space. Since the gradient of a plane is constant and ⃗⃗⃗⃗ | is constant, equation 2 aboveleads to the conclusion that if the angle, φ, of the direction is chosen to be 0º in the uphilldirection, then

Through this program, learners cantake a course completely for free in the “audit track” which allows them access to all coursematerial, but does not provide instructor grading of assignments or any kind of “verified”certificate of completion. For these students, the course is treated much like a traditionalMOOC, but with the benefit of an instructional team that includes professors who monitor andparticipate in discussion boards and host live “Q&A” video sessions throughout the course.
