It is mounted on a development kit board that allowsfor convenient prototype wiring. The module supports RS232 signal interfacing (TxD, RxD,plus handshaking) and direct UART signal interfacing (TxD, RxD, plus handshaking). Themodule has 64KB of SRAM and 512KB of flash. Resident on the device is a Bluetoothembedded host stack. The other

found that only 61% of the students who took ourfirst semester engineering course (ENGR 101) continued as an engineering major in thesubsequent year. We believe that many of those who left engineering after the first year wouldhave continued in engineering if they had a more encouraging, helpful, personal, and stimulatingfirst year experience. Many other universities have recognized the importance of the first yearexperience as well and have revamped their first year introductory engineering course(s) [1-5].The goals of this introductory course are to provide students with basic skills for success, toenhance their interest in engineering and to cultivate their sense of belonging. Because of therecent decline in engineering enrollments [6], this

Moreover, the response of the system is analyzed in real-time with the useof MATLAB® and Simulink® software, including the Simulink S-Function block. This block isused to generate real-time solutions for nonlinear systems which can be modified and updated bythe user as the simulation is being conducted, similar to a physical system.The virtual crossflow heat exchanger simulation software incorporates three MATLAB ® scriptsincluding an initialization script, a calculation script, and an S-Function script, in addition to aSimulink® data file containing the user interface and the block diagram of the system.

The selection processused to pick mentors and mentees was also investigated with the research questionnaire to furtherunderstand student preferences and specific needs of those majoring in STEM fields.The sixty-four (N=64) participants represents a diverse sample of graduate students who pursueundergraduate STEM degrees. Students reported their mentors helped with the following: 1) providingfunding, setting goals, providing positive and constructive feedback on their work, and being supportiveof ideas which allowed the mentee to follow his/her own ideas for their work. Alternatively, someparticipants reported unmet expectations by their mentor(s), such as wishing the mentor had: 1)provided more exposure to

For the experimentally determined Coriolisacceleration, the team reached a value of 0.1305 m / s 2 while their theoretical calculation wasfound to be 0.1608 m / s 2 . A sample is given here from the team’s concluding remarks:“From our data we can conclude that we successfully isolated the phenomenon. We did this bycalculating our theoretical acceleration and comparing it to what the sensors actually recorded.Areas of improvement would be a more rigid base, smoother running surface, a constant angulardrive and linear velocity for the car.”B.

In this paper, we will focus on our use of Kirton’s Adaption-Innovation Theory [27]and the KAI® (Kirton Adaption-Innovation inventory), which measures individual cognitive style[26]. We are also exploring the use of ABAKAS, a validated measure of engineeringinnovativeness based on Ferguson, et al.’s model of that construct [13, 14]; that work will bepresented in future publications. The individual cognitive style data provided by KAI was used inthe current study to supplement the team interaction data provided by IDN to develop a richerpicture of I-Corps™ team
