His team also assisted in the deployment of 84 TACMAV systems in 2005. Around that time he volunteered as a science advisor and worked at the Rapid Equipping Force during the summer of 2005 where he was exposed to a number of unmanned systems technologies. His initial group composed of about 6 S&T grew to nearly 30 between 2003 and 2010 as he transitioned from a Branch head to an acting Division Chief. In 2010-2012 he again was selected to teach Mathematics at the United States Military Academy West Point. Upon returning

These Student Instructors are students that previouslycompleted the course and returned to take on the responsibility for the design and delivery oflearning experiences in the classroom. Faculty, therefore, assume a coaching role with the SIsand no longer act as the source of knowledge, educational material, and content delivery for thecourse.This research paper delves into the impact that this learning experience has on studentmotivation.

The topics covered include the needs andbenefits of distributed generation, wind and solar energy potential assessment, models of energystorage devices, power electronic interfacing, life cycle assessment and cost analysis, and gridintegration issues. The benefit of such broad coverage is to give the students a comprehensiveview of the various RES components. Each student picks one area to explore further by studyingand presenting one or two research paper(s) to the class as well as doing an end-of-term projectdeveloping a written report and presenting the results of their work to the entire class.The objective of this course is to present and introduce the students to various renewable energytopologies and

They contained the lectures in which the concepts were introduced aswell as the solutions to some sample problems, but they also contained the class discussionsrecorded live during the Fall 2014 class. Nevertheless, during the subsequent semesters, whenthe flipped classroom approach was implemented, the students were asked to watch the recordedlectures before coming to the class. Throughout the 4 semesters considered in this study theinstructor made syllabus changes to ensure that the students are watching the recorded lectures asrequired. Some

One of the difficulties in developing a project for students is finding a device or systemthat will inspire interest and reward successful completion of the objectives. A Theremin is anideal project because of the adaptability of the circuits and the resultant instrument is a uniquedemonstration piece. The Theremin was invented in the early 1900’s by Lev Theremin1 andpatented in 1928 and marketed by RCA. It is considered the world’s first electronic instrument.The most unique

Team 26 made an inflatable trampoline cart with rails that would be pulled by theirteam leader, while team 36’s cart would be driven by motors and power.

Results showed that media with PLBC and RCBC improved ethanol production by 59% and 16%, respectively, compared to control. Besides, PLBC medium enhanced CO and H2consumptions by 40% and 69%, respectively, compared to control. Inductive coupled plasma (ICP) analysis of elements in fermentation medium showed that PLBC medium contained thehighest concentration of Na, K, Ca, Mg, P, and S. The release of Ca, Mg, Fe, and Mn compounds from PLBC during fermentation was initiated by accumulation of acetic acid, indicatingbuffering effects of biochar on the acetogen culture.
