elements of the course that have fosteredhigher levels of intellectual development and thereby critical thinking skills.Felder and Brent6 suggest that there are five teaching conditions that correlate with students tak-ing a deep approach to learning. The first condition, “Student-perceived relevance of the subjectmatter” is obtained by the industrial involvement and real-world problem solving. Since thiscourse was co-developed by industry, it has received the “industry stamp of approval” whichgives the students incentive and enthusiasm to learn the course material. The second condition,“Clear expectations, practice, and feedback” is obtained in the laboratory exercises (labs). Thecritical thinking process is modeled by the professor in the early

FPGAsare not only programmed through atraditional schematic fashion, they are alsoprogrammed using HDL. HDL is used todescribe the behavior of the circuits that arebeing created. Although HDLs describenearly all advanced circuits, certain circuitscan be automatically synthesized, meaningthat HDL code can be rendered from acomputer directly into a working design.This is particularly true of “reconfigurable Figure 1.

, forexample, applying FEA to a common truss problem can help the student visualize the bending oftruss members and deformation in a way previously not possible. Use of FEA for studyingengineering concepts is similar to the inclusion of laboratory experiments in lecture-courses, toprovide reinforcement of core lecture material more effectively than a textbook16. Also, FEA canbe used to bridge the gap between traditional learning through textbooks, which are typicallycomprised of standard geometry, and applying those concepts to real world and design problemswith complex geometry, where knowledge gained from textbooks alone is not sufficient. Thoughpowerful with advanced graphics and animation capabilities, these commercial tools do not lendthemselves

Chemistry is typically thefirst college lab experience students have, so in-lab assistance can be extremely helpful.In fact, one Chemistry faculty member found that employing an ET has increased the successrate in their General Chemistry 1 classes as follows: 49% in Spring 2022 (first semesterimplementing ET) to 63% in Fall 2022 and to 66% in Fall 2023.

Further, it should not beassumed that white women will be supporters and allies of URMWF [18],[19],[20]; e.g., “thereis a long history of white women not being trustworthy allies” [21].

Therefore, significant effort has been placed in designing, synthesizing, andimplementing quantum dot semiconductors in photovoltaic applications. This has led to acombination of computational design investigations by physicists, advanced synthetic proceduresby chemists, and fabrication and testing of quantum dot solar cells by engineers. As such,significant progress has been made with respect to achieving relatively high power conversionefficiency values at the laboratory scale.
