To me, GPT seemed to fabricate the stated connection between Omar’s experience in [Engineering Course ST] and his engineering identity (I don’t think Omar indicated that this experience made him feel more – or less – like an engineer). … As another example of where I think GPT may be giving an interpretation that the data does not support, it said, “Omar's teamwork experience in [Engineering Course ST] made him feel more like an engineer.” I don’t see Omar actually saying this.

Does Korkmaz et al.’s (2017) [4] CT scale effectively measure the underlying construct of CT in HBCU engineering students? 2. To what extent do HBCU engineering students believe that the integration of the CAVE into the curriculum enhances their CT skills relevant to engineering?

Dostudents correctly anticipate the presence of each type of STEM connection in the unit (science,technology, engineering, mathematics)? 2. Do students correctly anticipate the nature of theSTEM connections in the unit? In answering these questions, we can discover if studentsdetermine that they must learn the very same STEM concept(s) for which the curriculum wasdesigned. If students anticipate the correct connections, we have reason to believe this supportsstudents’ feelings of autonomy, competence, and motivation.

circuit that efficiently steps down a DC voltage to a new level. The basic principles discussedapply to other types of PWM converters. The buck chopper circuit is illustrated in Fig. 1. The circuit is controlled by cyclicallyopening and closing switch S. This periodic rate is called the switching frequency and drives the sizing of the circuit inductanceand capacitance. When the PWM signal is high, the switch S is closed. When the PWM signal is low, switch S is open anddiode D conducts. The amount of time that S is closed divided by the switching period is called the duty cycle. For an idealbuck chopper operating in continuous conduction mode (inductor current always positive), the output voltage is approximatelyequal to the duty cycle times the

However, testing does show increasedpower output from shrouded geometry that can be compared to unshrouded tests to determineand “effective” velocity to see what speed is necessary to produce the same power without ashroud.To further confirm CFD predictions, three different shroud sizes were tested: 20°, 25°, and 30°.All had an outlet area to inlet area ratio of four
