The practices and mindset associated with quality teaching mirrorpractices of entrepreneurship and the entrepreneurial mindset.The EMIT Academy uses the metaphor of teaching as entrepreneurship to frame a facultydevelopment program for engineering faculty. The EMIT Academy was modeled on the NationalScience Foundation (NSF) funded Innovation Corps (iCorps) experience [1]. In iCorps, facultywork through a curriculum to help bring technology concepts to market. In the EMIT Academy,faculty applied similar entrepreneurial principles and processes as iCorps to teaching innovationand evaluation. During the Academy, faculty do critical reflection

remote learning.1. IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic resulted in educational institutions across the world pivoting quicklyto online learning. Initially, teachers had to adapt to emergency remote teaching and wereoverwhelmed with the additional work required to develop their remote classes [1]. One surveyconducted to evaluate the successes and challenges teachers faced as they moved to virtualinstruction in spring 2020 showed that although teachers transitioned immediately to virtualinstruction, they were not properly trained or given enough time to effectively redesign theirpedagogy. Teachers were inundated with information and resources to help with virtualinstruction and overwhelmed by how quickly they had to transition [2]. Some courses

Researchers involved in science education haveused pre- and post- assessments to measure student learning and validate the need for curriculumrevision [1]. Engineering Graphics has been identified as a field in which the use of a CI couldexpose common misconceptions associated with graphic representation, as well as identify thefundamental concepts that contribute to the generation of those graphics. With varying curriculaacross institutions it can be expected that the implementation of engineering graphics will differ.The development of a standardized instrument to assess the understanding of concepts related toengineering graphics could be beneficial in streamlining or standardizing instruction

Such an approach can “replace andamplify real experiences” through proper guidance to “evoke or replicate substantial aspects ofthe real world” [4]. Simulated environments that can provide the high fidelity immersiveexperience, such as CAVE [5]–[7] or other forms of visualization representation can help thelearners create the necessary cognitive connection [3], [10] between the physical world and thecomputer-generated instance.

Because of the earth’s limited conductivity, it takes a relatively large amountof power to overcome ground losses (in addition to spherical dispersion losses) and these groundlosses increase as the frequency is increased. Hence, this is why practical ground wavecommunication is limited to the MF and below bands (i.e. below 3 MHz). Another means of radiopropagation is tropospheric bending where

While such a course structure is thought necessary for most courses, it hasbeen observed that students tend to gravitate towards rote learning and perhaps mostlyremembering just enough to succeed in the exams [1]. There are two ways to counteract thisproblem. The first approach is to reduce the course content and focus on essential and importantconcepts in more detail, with repeated activities around the reduced number of topics [2]. Thesecond

Studentassessment has shown that our approach greatly enhances understanding of helical antennasystems and has caused significant increase in student enthusiasm for selected topics in antennas.Introduction The helical antenna was invented by Dr. John D. Kraus in the 1940s [1]. The uniquedesign has given this type of antenna several advantages over other directional antennas. Theseadvantages include universal polarization, relatively high gain, broad band capability -withrespect to both directionality and SWR- greater immunity to multipath interference, as well ashaving a relatively simple structure and feed system.

mainpremise of the TAP theoretical framework is that the validity of an argument depends on itslogical structure, and the process for constructing these arguments is argumentation23. The TAPmodel is a general model that can be applied to many disciplines, including philosophy, law, andmathematics, among others. Per Toulmin’s definition, a rational argument contains some, thoughnot necessarily all, of six main elements: claim, data, warrant, backing, modal qualifiers, andrebuttals (See Figure 1). More complex arguments will include more elements. For the purposesof this research, we chose to define an instance of EBR using a limited version of Toulmin’s sixelements in order to explore a greater variety of EBR.

That is, students build robots that are strongor fast to carry out a mission in competition with other robots. Several researchers have shownthat female students are often less motivated by competitive, mission based approaches [3-5]. Inour own rural area, females are less likely (1 girl:10 boys) to participate in robotics programs,which mirrors national trends [6]. Female students are more likely to be
