of universities is another task al-together that’s equally important. By building upon continued efforts, future directions can drivemeaningful progress toward equity in STEM education. Such efforts will ensure that STEM fieldsaccurately reflect the overall diversity of the population as a whole, as well as create innovationand excellence for every student engaging in STEM curriculum.AcknowledgeThis work is supported in part by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under Grant No. 2301868and the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA NIFA) Grant No. 2023-70020-40570 .References [1] S.

By measuring these typesof hope, we capture the attitudes necessary for feeling efficacious and motivated, ultimatelydriving ethical action based on critical views of a sociotechnical world.Course DescriptionThe course driving this research was taught as an elective, special topics course offered throughthe computer science department at a medium-sized

Examining the resulting Item Characteristic Curves (ICCs) is astraightforward method for understanding this. These curves illustrate the likelihood of anexaminee answering correctly based on their ability. This probability is small for individuals withlower ability and higher for those with greater ability. Each item produces a smooth S-shapedcurve. In Figure 1, with ability ranging from -4 to +4, the probability starts near zero at lowerlevels and approaches one at higher levels. An S-shaped curve is considered to be an indicator ofa good question. For the FMCI, as shown in Figure 1, we

The goalof this paper is to examine students’ perspectives in relation to course assessment practices.2.1 Theoretical FoundationsPost-secondary computer science education researchers hold diverse epistemological andtheoretical perspectives [7], [8], [9], although, as with much higher education research, thesefundamental perspectives are often unexpressed in published research articles [10], [11].Epistemology and theoretical perspective, even when unacknowledged, affect researchers’ tacitbeliefs and underlie their theories of learning. Since this study uses Braun et al.’s [12] reflexivethematic analysis and they recommend that “[r]esearchers should always reflect on and specifythe

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.

In somecases, steps three and four are skipped, and only one round of interviews is completed. The faculty hiring process is fraught with bias, including racial bias [1], gender bias inletters of recommendation [2], and search committee members seeking to hire people whoseresearch areas are most similar to their own [3]. Hiring people similar to oneself extends beyondresearch areas. Many search committees look for candidates who would be a good “fit”(generally, scientifically, programmatically) [4, 5]. However, “fit” is highly subjective and opento the evaluator’s personal biases

Moreover, the proposed holisticengineering design education prevailing over the restricted use of key technical macro-thematicfactors, allow for the design of equitable and inclusive solutions through the consideration of thediverse influences associated with the project. This is an especially critical feature given that keytechnical macro-thematic factors used for traditional engineering design may be developed basedon specific group(s) of our society.

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
