-surveys; however,participation in the survey is voluntary. Surveys are administered electronically and via email byUNC Charlotte under the direction of Dr. Audrey S. Rorrer. The pre-survey is provided duringthe first week of the program. The post-survey is provided during the last week of the program.Survey responses are collected and de-identified before being made available to the PI. The firstyear of the VisREU Site resulted in lackluster student participation—less than 4 studentscompleted surveys. Greater effort was made in 2015 to stress the importance of feedback. As aresult, 92% (11 out of 12) students completed pre-surveys, 67% (8 out of 12) completed post-surveys. The following sections present survey responses from 2015 VisREU Cohort
to FPGA • Understand the need for current limiting resistors for LEDs and calculate a proper value • Place a button, seven-segment display, or other device into a prototyping area, wire it to the programmable logic device, and successfully program the PLD to interface with the new component(s). With these teaching objectives, there were some specific objectives the board design had toachieve. These design objectives are listed below. • The board should be easy to solder • The board should be sufficiently low-cost to account for mistakes • The board should have a prototyping area The OwlBoard is based on a modified open source Numato Mimas board, which is men-tioned in Section 5.2. The OwlBoard

grant to travel to Europe to seekrare journal volumes and books to add to the library collection. Crosland traveled to eightEuropean countries, such as Great Britain, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. Shereturned with many issues of important scientific journals, which were unavailable during WorldWar II. Crosland also obtained additional grants from the Rockefeller Foundation, the NSF, andGeorgia Tech Alumni clubs to purchase scientific works. She purchased and was given manyrare journal volumes and missing issues, the value of which well exceeded the travel expenses.In her letter to a donor who helped to make her trip possible, Crosland wrote: “I was quiteflattered when Professor A.
