First isthe need to know the physics of a solar cell, how it functions, and its performance criteria.Second is the requisite knowledge of the converters, such as the charge controller and inverters:their engineering, performance parameters, different technologies, and suitability in variousapplications. Thirdly is the necessity to acquire knowledge of the different battery chemistriesused for the storage of renewable energy and which is most appropriate to specific environmentalconditions such as South Sudan. The fourth identified problem is the proper integration of thevarious components to meet a particular power need. Throughout the course, I broke down thevarious problems

A growing body of evidence advocates that LTS may provide significantadvantages to engineering students, but studies to date are quite limited.11-15 Asuniversities play catch-up to these trends, a fundamental question remains unexplored:What motivates engineering students to be engaged in service?2.

In the online lab, students from two different engineering programs (mechatronics engineering and industrial engineering) were paired together using Zoom’s breakout rooms thus engaging in PL. Also, each student was issued a kit of parts necessary for the physical implementation of the lab designs off campus. Student pairs that finished their labs early were required to help other pairs.

students.KeywordsSummer camps; Assessment; In-person to virtual; Underrepresented; URMIntroductionAs new technologies emerged over the last several decades, the need for a STEM workforceincreased and began a movement in the United States (US) to improve STEM education. Worldeducation rankings show the US lagging behind other nations in developing STEM skills [1]. Inorder to help overcome this widening gap, the US began a push for STEM opportunities for K-12students outside of schools, especially for reach underrepresented minority (URM) students whomay not have equal access to STEM opportunities. In 2007, the University of Arkansas Collegeof Engineering (UACOE) began offering summer programs to increase STEM exposure. In thesecamps, students are free to develop
