it’s the other way around, and people are expecting gay men, like, there’s no way you could be acting like that in a technical position… (Brian) I guess there’s this assumption that, “oh, you’re a lesbian, you’re kind of butch, you are definitely kind of more guy-ish, so it would make sense that you are an engineer, because guys are engineers”…I think, for straight women, it’s like, “oh, you’re pretty, you would want a social type of major.” Researcher (Q)uestion: Do you think the way that other students see competence in engineering aligns with that? Um, yeah. I actually think so. Because I’m, I guess, not a stereotypical female, or what is socially constructed as a

velocities thatthen feeds into the kinetic energy term of energy balances, you end up with two pathwaysthrough volumetric flowrate using area to get to that point, one for liquids and one for gases.Potential energy, heat (Q) and shaft work (Ws) also appear leading up towards the top of thediagram where internal energy (ΔU) and enthalpy (ΔH) appear. One can then bridge over tospecific internal energies and enthalpies (U-hat and H-hat) to the left through temperature andpressure information. One can also calculate enthalpies and internal energies from integrals ofthe appropriate heat capacities in the upper right. Phase change information may also be neededthrough ΔHvap, ΔHfus and ΔUvap, ΔUfus. It should be noted that even after several years of

(D0 = 0, D1 = 0) corresponds to the empty set meaning that the value of D is not yet available. The two rails are mutually exclusive, such that both rails can never be asserted simultaneously; this state is defined as an illegal state. A quad-rail signal, Q, consists of four wires, Q0, Q1, Q2, and Q3, which may assume any value from the set {DATA0, DATA1, DATA2, DATA3, NULL}. The DATA0 state (Q0 = 1, Q1 = 0, Q2 = 0, Q3 = 0) corresponds to two Boolean logic signals, X and Y, where X = 0Proceedings of the 2009 Midwest Section conference of the American Society for Engineering Education  4 and Y = 0.

At three hours in length, this session served as the foundation for our education forthe week. Each department discipline in the production pipeline was defined and elaboratedthrough Q&A, but not with the same rigor, as each department would define itself later.Global Overview: AnalysisSimply put, every embedding industry needs to elaborate on the instigation/deliverable life cycle Page 14.529.5of a

The sketch also alludes todeeper issues relative to male-female gender dynamics, poor communication and follow-through,and frustration about unsatisfactory group dynamics.After Off-Course ends, the facilitator discusses the performance with the audience using a varietyof interactive learning strategies: pair sharing, large group discussion, and Q&A between thesketch characters and the audience. That is, the characters from the sketch remain on the stageand the students in the audience interact directly with them (as they remain in character) byasking questions

with the shrinking size in the relationship betweencharge, voltage and capacitance Q = C V is at the root of this sensitivity since at acapacitance of 10-17F or less, V is likely to be larger than the thermal voltage for a singleelectron moving from one side to the other1. Such effects cause degradation in theperformance of CMOS technology ultimately limiting the device densities attainable withtransistors. These limits have led to the growing importance of developing alternativebottom up approaches such as nano-technology which allows scaling at the limits ofmolecular dimensions. QCA and nano-wires are two such approaches and our interest inthese two areas has been guided by the PI’s prior experience in the field of QuantumInformation

The principle advantage to a DFIG is independent control of active and reactive power.The laboratory illustrates how the d and q components of the rotor current affect the P and Qcomponents of the complex power.5 Integration into curriculumA basic knowledge of electric power topics, including voltage, current, active and reactive power,three-phases systems, and one-line diagrams, is required for all experiments. Students will benefitfrom previous work with electric machines, especially induction machines.

It helped by creating internal competition. It hurt by dividing people and assets. 3. Helped- competition kept us driven and let us see other alternatives to problems. Hurt- split up the members that really wanted to work on the vehicle and not choosing members hurt team dynamics. 4. Helped- teams were able to show the other difficulties and problems that would be applicable to both. Required increased insight to produce two separate products. 5. I think it helped because we fed ideas off one another, but a consolidated team with those that worked

Several students signed up for the course not realizingthat it was an inverted format and had expected the course to be a more traditional lecture formatwith laboratory experiences embedded throughout the semester. Many felt that the hybrid natureof the class would have worked better if hands-on opportunities were provided during class time.Student enthusiasm during the pilot was strongly positive overall.
