They attended several volunteer board meetings and familiarized themselves with the organization and then decided to help create curriculum for the food based summer youth program that is hosted by the food bank. Kids spend time working in the community garden and then learn to prepare some of the food that they are growing. While it is cooking, they then play a game or do some other activity related to that food. The students created eight lessons plans based around different vegetables.  Self-Help International - Students worked on a two part project with a local nonprofit that serves communities overseas with a variety of initiatives.

TheDigilent Analog Explorer platform used in the workshop can be replaced by the NationalInstrument ELVIS board that is available at the USMA. The board provides portableinstrumentation and interfaces with the computer. Therefore, all the experiments introduced inthe workshop are easily adapted. My plan is to change two of the MATLAB exercises intohands-on activities for the fall term of the 2015-2016 academic year. Since the majority of theelectrical engineering students enjoy hands-on building exercises, this change will further help instimulating their learning.In particular, the two hardware labs

When this editor has been incorporated into tutorial exercises, as we plan to doin the near future, the validity check will be extended to ensure that the student has made acircuit transformation that is in fact correct. For example, we would check that the student hascorrectly combined a series or parallel set of elements if they are being asked to simplify thecircuit in that manner.

This needdrew more public attention in June 2001 when President Obama put out the call and set a goalfor at least 10,000 more engineers to be graduated each year in the US.1 At the end of August2011, President Barack Obama’s Jobs and Competitiveness council made an announcement tohelp this short-term goal: more than 40 major companies agreed to double the number ofengineering internships to help universities improve their retention rate of engineering students.2The National Science Foundation joined this effort in September of 2012 by announcing acooperative effort with
