6:30pm WISE CenterThursday, December 6 – 12 FINALS!!V. Retention Programming Evaluation-WISE Member forumsWISE holds two member forums each semester to evaluate the progress for the new andcontinuing retention programs. This past fall feedback was positive. Students really enjoyed thewellness series, as well as the community service involvement. In addition, old favorites like theWIN series and WISE Seminars were popular as well. Students further greatly appreciated theimprovements made to the WISE Center stating: “It feels like the College is taking us seriouslyand really supporting us.”VI. Retention ResultsThe enrollment of women in college ha s been steadily increasing from 532 (16.8%) in fall 1991to 940 (20.2

differences among the various majorshave also been posited. These techniques are a response to the rise of interdisciplinary designcourses coupled with a more distracted generation with a shorter attention span. As the methodshave been proven successful at the K-12 level, with proper implementation, there is a highprobability of success of the modified techniques presented. The re-interpretations arenecessarily diluted but have shown promise anecdotally through the author's experience. Werecommend further study using both qualitative and quantitative assessments to validate initialobservations of the implementation of these techniques.References[1] A. Van den Beemt, M. MacLeod, J.

We present acomprehensive method that utilizes the unique properties of ESP32 microcontrollers to captureWi-Fi signal metrics to generate a visual representation of the physical space and the object(s)within it. The inputs to this software mimic those provided by the hardware array and employsadvanced algorithms to process the metrics made by the array. This technique, often referred toas Wi-Fi imaging or Wi-Fi based material sensing, has significant implications for

In both schemes, pass band insertion losses of less than 0.2dB and stop band rejections ofgreater than 50dB are easily obtained using both techniques.

causes frustration for students is moving easily between verbal, symbolic, andgraphical representations. This represents a major challenge to students, especially in theirphysics classes. A quick look at a typical physics books used at TAMU14 reveals that almost allthe problems are presented verbally, although pictures are used on occasion. This is also the casewith optimization problems in calculus, which are often used as applications of the derivative.Often, students do not have any major difficulty in carrying out the mathematical manipulations.Rather, they struggle to convert the verbal description into a mathematical description. Studentsare unable to answer questions such as: 1. What is(are) the variable(s) of interest? 2
