for Engineering Education, 2016 Challenges and Benefits of Introducing a Science and Engineering Fair in High-Needs Schools (Work in Progress) Science and Engineering (S&E) Fairs are a valuable educational activity that are believedto increase students’ engagement and learning in science and engineering by emphasizingcreativity and inquiry-focused learning.1,2 However, S&E Fairs put demands on teachers,parents, and students for time and resources.3,4 Organizing such an event is especially demandingin the first few years of implementation. As a result, poor and low-achieving schools are lesslikely to implement such a program for their students, despite the potential benefits 1,3,4. Ourstudy is based on data

In 2000, less than 5% of all undergraduate degrees were awarded to engineers.Engineering bachelor’s degrees have grown only 1% since 2005.This presentation describes the overall framework of a project that has been recently funded bythe Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Program (S-STEM) ofthe National Science Foundation. The goal of the project is to provide S-STEM scholarshipsupport for academically-talented, financially-needy engineering students, and to train thesestudents to become effective scientific and technological contributors when entering theengineering workforce.

An innovative scholarship program developedand implemented at Florence-Darlington Technical College, Florence, SC has achieved an 81.8%on-time graduation rate for students in engineering technology programs and other advancedtechnologies by addressing a barrier referred to as the “digital divide” (NSF DUE #0422405,#0806514, #1259402). A technology support element was added to a National ScienceFoundation-funded S-STEM scholarship program in 2004 to address a well-documented needamong prospective scholars. Many scholarship recipients did not have access to a personalcomputer with the software and capability to do assigned work when off campus.

The observations made on this paper are based on our multiple years ofexperience in teaching the topics as well as several informal discussions with professors in otheruniversities. It appears that some students miss the basic understanding that a controller (whetheranalog or digital) represents a transfer function (in the S-Domain or the Z-Domain) or adifferential/difference equation so that, together with the dynamics of the plant and the rest of thesystem, it allows for desired closed loop behavior.This problem can be partially alleviated during laboratory experiments when students notice thata controller’s transfer function in the S-Domain can be practically implemented using hardware,which includes op

Based ona free-body diagram, the system differential equation is expressed in (1). Using LaplaceTransform, this time-domain equation leads to a position-to-external force transfer functiongiven by equation (2). Once the transfer function is derived, a set of parameter values (m = 0.1kg, b = 1 N*s/m and k = 2 N/m) is used to obtain the system transfer function shown in (3

Introduction In January 2013, the California State University Board of Trustees mandated that, unless excepted, undergraduate degree programs, including engineering degrees, be limited to 120 units. Title 5 § 40508 [1] states that “[a]s of the fall term of the 2014-2015 academic year, no baccalaureate degree programs shall extend the unit requirement beyond 120 semester units…” This mandate and short timeline for implementation necessitated swift action for proposals to be submitted and approved via campus curriculum committees and
