Yet, little is known about how these different experiencesaffect veterans. This WIP is a case study of two veteran students who are participants in a largerresearch project. Our analysis is guided by Wenger’s Communities of Practice framework andGee’s identity framework. The two students in this case study are Jacob and Malcolm.

Malcolm is a transfer student pursuing a computer science degree througha pre-major common FYE pathway. Preliminary results indicate that Jacob and Malcolm havesome
piezoelectric energy harvester studied in this project consists of a vibratinghost structure, a cantilever beam with an attached piezoelectric layer mounted to the host structure,and an energy harvesting circuit connected to the piezoelectric layer. When the host structure isvibrating, the vibration energy is absorbed by the piezoelectric material which deforms and inducesa voltage output across their electrodes. This voltage can be stored in a battery or some storagedevice for potential use.Deriving a dynamic model is crucial in order to design a piezoelectric harvester with optimizedperformance. In this preliminary study, we focused on developing a simulation model ofpiezoelectric harvester using the ANSYS workbench simulation software. In the next

Hence, students try to find contextualized workscenarios such as internships or co-ops, where they can be involved in a real project in acompany. This particular setting provides students with an understanding of the workenvironment and also brings benefits to industry and universities [5]. On one hand, industrydemands an integral formation of individuals that are competent in technical skills in their areaof discipline, but with elements that enable them socially, ethically and professionally. On theother hand, society requires answers to its

FIR is a 24/7 faculty resource for undergraduateengineering students. The EIRC which will be examined in this project is located at Boise StateUniversity in Idaho. The EIRC is about 34% female and 66% male, and the distribution of themajors closely mirrors the college of engineering’s statistics. The researchers hypothesize thatstudents who live in the EIRC benefit greatly from being a part of the social/academiccommunity.The EIRC provides many resources to help students adjust to college and get involved oncampus. All participants are required to take a course together taught by the FIR, and they meetonce a week for the entire year.
