Students who pass eithercourse must subsequently take a traditional intermediate C programming course. The novel courseutilizes hardware-based projects to motivate students to master language syntax and implement keyprogramming concepts and best practices. In addition to comparing the attitudes and self-perceptions of the students in each of the introductory courses, we also look at success rates foreach cohort in the intermediate programming class as well as their progress toward their degrees.The electrical engineering students who took either introductory class on average had identicalGPAs

There were engineering challenges concerning how to build sustainable tinyhomes and use rainwater harvesting to support an urban garden. Student designers also had to learn thebasics of social work and poverty alleviation so that they could design a neighborhood that would buildconfidence and community for homeless individuals.

This sequential model had twomajor disadvantages. First, because the measurement and data acquisition content wasconcentrated at the start of the semester, many students struggled to remember what they“learned” in the first part of the class when they completed their culminating project later inthe semester, in which they designed their own experiment and then collected and analyzedtheir own data.

Overwatering plantsessentially drown crops, creating additional waste products. The environmental concerns from ourworld’s overuse of water require changing how we use agricultural irrigation. This paper presentsa proof of concept of an automated watering system that monitors and corrects the water contentin the soil, specifically in situations where the plant needs watering.Our project presents a solution to how society waters plants and uses the world’s availablefreshwater resources.
