This allowed students to check their understanding while theproblems were still fresh on their minds. The timeliness also allowed students to keeptrack of

The mass flowshould ideally remain constant unless there is a variable valve system in place, however it shouldstill indicate any kind of flow irregularities that may be present. As for the combustion chambertemperature should increase rapidly at the start of the burn and slowly reach a peak temperature,which should be at the end of the burn. With these properties in mind, the sensors chosen shouldbe able to validate these trends. As discussed previously, need for the mobility of this data acquisition system should notbe understated. As full-scale rocket engine testing can be a potentially dangerous proposition, itis important to move the system to a safe location to perform a

We explore graduatestudents’ perceptions of their multiple roles today and in the future, focusing on a) the actualroles they currently hold, b) the roles they desire to hold now and in the future, and c) the rolesthey believe they are expected to hold now and in the future.TerminologyThroughout this research key terms were used with distinct definitions in mind. First, the termidentity is used in terms of who a person is in the professional sense. For example, for graduatestudents and professoriate, identity often includes the roles of

Perhaps the most prominent aspect of threshold concepts is their transformative nature.4 Onemanner of understanding the transformative criterion is to recall a concept that presented anentirely new lens to view the physical (and perhaps nonphysical) world. For example, fromelectrical engineering, one of the first ideas that may come to mind is the Fourier Transform of asignal f(t), ' 𝑓 𝜉 = 𝑓(𝑡) 𝑒 (*+,-. 𝑑𝑡, ∀𝜉 ∈ ℝ (1) ('From a purely mathematical point of view, the transform appears

The prototype is designed to collect salinity and otherenvironmental data and is equipped with onboard computers, water quality instruments(Hydrolab), GPS, digital
