teams are highly committed to the projectsthroughout the semester; (iii) mentors are available and responsive to students, have internalsupport and value student work; and (iv) instructors constantly communicate with mentors andstudent teams, facilitate the student-mentor relationship and monitor the design and developmentprogress of each student team. As each project has its unique type, constraints and scope ofdesign or experiments, team office hours or interactive Questions and Answers (Q&A) sessionsthat are periodically scheduled throughout the semester between each team and instructor arevery helpful. Instructors can use these team office hours and Q&A sessions to better controlproject progress, address student needs and resolve

. 5. Total cost and profit.In the electric field of a line of charge example, a thin, uniformly charged rod of length L withtotal charge Q generates an electric field. Students are guided to find the strength of the field atdistance d in the plane that bisects the rod. Figure 1 Line of ChargeThe total charge Q is divided into many small point-like charges ΔQ located at points 𝑦𝑖 and theelectric field from each of them is determined. The net field can be found by summing the fieldsof all the point-like charges ΔQ and forming a Riemann sum. By taking the limit as the numberof point-like charges ΔQ increases to infinity, the Riemann sum will converge to a definiteintegral. The integral can be

This includes thetime to allow gradual maturing by the students to understand the process of their learning.Finally, based on the reflections provided by the student, there is more evidence of theirawareness and eagerness to realize the value of lifelong learning.In our courses, during each lecture, students engage in activities/problem solving and discusstheir thoughts, ideas and reflections with their teams. Through these reflections, the studentsreview and summarize their learning from previous lectures and at the same time they activelyengage in the process of thinking and deliberation within the classroom.A day in the non-calculus based class Every class, starts with a brief review, open discussions and Q/A of the last

If the number of columns of the first matrix is not equalto the number of rows of the second matrix, we cannot multiply those two matrices.In multiplication of two matrices, if the order of the two matrices change, if still the dimensionsallow multiplication, the result of multiplication will be different than the previous multiplicationunlike the multiplication of two scalars. b) How to write a set of equations with multiple unknowns in the form of matrices.If we have a set of q linear equations with q unknowns, the equations

Such exercise builds their confidence andunderstanding of how the electromechanical systems work. After students are familiar with thetechnology and concepts, in the learning phase, they are introduced to the history of NASA’sspace exploration through series of NASA’s excellent video content available through multipleof NASA’s web resources [7].

brought many of my online activities--like demonstrating tostudents how I would research a company--into my face-to-face course. More broadly, I’ve usedmy LMS page to be more transparent about course and assignment-level goals and objectives. Inan online course, it’s important to present those clearly to students in each unit to promote theself-regulation and reflection. I often discuss those objectives in my face-to-face course, but I’vebeen more intentional about using the LMS to highlight them. Similarly, I (Prof. Livingston) have incorporated several elements into my face-to-faceclasses, such as weekly checklists and Q & A discussion forums.

Task 1 — Reading Datasheets:In Task 1, students were required to note down the manufacturer specified PV parameters fromsolar module datasheets, such as open-circuit voltage (𝑉𝑂𝐶 ), short-circuit current (𝐼𝑆𝐶 ), temperatureco-efficient of short-circuit current (𝐾𝐼 ), and the cell area. This is an important step before thesimulation models can be constructed. Only one solar cell’s data (Q-Cells; Model: Q6LMXP3-G3,Power Class: 4.53) was used for modeling and simulation7. This cell had the following parameters:𝑉𝑂𝐶 = 0.636V, 𝐼𝑆𝐶 = 9.15A, and 𝐾𝐼 = +4.575mA/K, and cell area = 243.36 cm2.2.3

Figure5, students can visualize the operation of a microgrid consisting of 2 synchronized inverters.Exploiting the capabilities of the controller, we can employ one to simulate a wind turbine byplaying back actual waveforms recorded at a functioning wind farm. Students can see thewaveforms both as a time domain waveform as well as a D-Q representation.
