absorbssolar radiation, it heats up, then emits radiation from its surface to cool down and achieve radiativebalance18. The Earth’s hydrosphere is composed of all water including in oceans, lakes, rivers, andgroundwater. The hydrosphere plays an essential role in the climate system because water transportsheat better than air; hence, so the impacts of climate change will be transmitted by water19. The Earth’scryosphere is composed of the surface snow and ice as well as permafrost or ground ice. Thecryosphere is important when considering surface reflectance or the albedo effect; the sun’s energy is Proceedings of the 2024 ASEE Gulf-Southwest Annual Conference West Texas A&M University, Canyon, TX

Scientific Method and Engineering Design Process used to solve research programs.Organization Level CMC features reflect values, mission alignment, and structural compatibilityamong collaborating entities. Personal Level CMC features refer to trust and rapport built amongthe individuals carrying out collaborative activities. A goal of the five-way collaboration describedhere was to put in place measures to create or reinforce all 8 aspirational features of a successfulCMC. These measures are described and addressed in this Methods section.The first engineering design-and-build process facilitated by this five-way partnership centered ona new camouflage deployment system for the Army’s Light Medium Tactical Vehicle (LMTV) atUF and the M109 Paladin at

thelocation where the coal fly ash particle would settle. The fourth part consists of estimating the totalamount of coal fly ash per county to allow for correlation analysis later. The four parts are executedin one iteration during which the coal fly ash particle is assumed to settle regardless of how longthe particle is airborne. The wind speed and direction are set during the entire time of an iteration.This iterative process is repeated several times to account for the random changes in wind speedand direction.The size of fly ash particle is selected using Figure 2 and Equation 6. Figure 2 reflects the actualdistribution of particles typically found in coal fly ash. Equation 3 is used to compute its terminalvelocity using Stokes’ law. Next, wind

hay bale insulation (right)The Spring 2023 cohort’s performance optimized design required installing external heating andventilation systems, insulation, and thermostats. This design considered electric, oil, and propaneenergy source options, two of which did not meet the MC director’s sustainability criteria. Thetypes of insulation considered were fiberglass, polystyrene foam, and reflective insulation.Thermostats and a ventilation system were recommended for installation, but very littleinformation was presented on the specific system to be installed. No system parameters,mathematical approximations, or heat transfer modeling were presented to size the system. Theteam estimated that this design could cost up to $7000. The cost optimized

For instance, if X students drop out orgraduate by the end of a semester, they will be removed from subsequent analyses, ensuring thatthe remaining students constitute the entire study cohort for subsequent persistence analyses.The study will acknowledge the dynamic nature of student enrollment, and robust measures willbe employed to handle attrition. The removal of students who exit the program will ensure thatanalyses reflect the evolving composition of the sample, contributing to the accuracy andrelevance of the findings.ConclusionIn conclusion, this study undertakes comprehensive exploration of the factors influencingengineering student persistence, with a particular focus on the impact of Calculus I.

In all cases, the training of students should becommensurate with the prospects of their career plans and expectations of their potentialemployers. Thus, for instance, within UI-dominated disciplines, there should be a greateremphasis on providing resources for establishing industrial connections.Lastly, the findings highlight the importance of refining academic course plans and institutionalsupport for effective doctoral training.

In a scoping review of empathy in nursing students, simulationincreased empathy levels and confidence, and is deemed beneficial for enhancing empathyawareness, sensitivity, and decreasing negative emotions [31].Empathy is central to the nursing role, fostering and promoting the therapeutic nurse-patientrelationship. Empathetic nursing care requires self-reflection, mindfulness, giving of oneself, andviewing the patient as a whole. Empathy allows patients to feel validated, understood, andrespected.

and in identifying formal evaluation criteria that robustlycapture whether skills have been acquired. Of interest is whether tools can be developed thatprovide more robust formative assessment of a modeling activity. This contrasts with summativeassessment approaches which largely benefits the assessor in reducing grading times byevaluating the result but can miss important tendencies in a student designer that might need tobe corrected. For this to be feasible better metrics that reflect how a modeling activity isprogressing not just with respect to realizing a final shape goal, but also in capturing designintent and meeting best practices is needed.

Initially, the researchers felt Omar’sresponses could have fit in broader systemic issues such as greenwashing or performativeallyship [34], [35], but in reflection following the interview process, the researchers felt Omarmight have been uncomfortable, or felt he was being assessed, leading him to look for the “right”answer. However, Omar perceived his work as separate from efforts in diversity or equity, the“science side of things.” Later in the interview, Omar also mentioned that he did not have a lot ofinvolvement with the Center outside of his lab, lab work, and advisor.

After this, the instructor typicallypresents the true conclusion, which is always an entertaining time—especially if a team wascorrect but was not voted up to the next level.Students are asked to reflect on the experience together in a classroom-wide discussion. Themain takeaways typically regard:• The criticality of due process, the formality of investigations, and the correct handling/ interpretation of evidence.• The power of perception, and how remaining impartial is paramount when the stakes are so high.• The nuance and broadness of engineering as a profession and skillset. Equipment can be very sensitive to small elements, and a broad knowledge base is needed to not only understand the

limitation is mostlikely due to the FPGA’s ability to connect two ALMs during the routing process, where a wirewith a width larger than 1120 cannot be connected between two ALMs. The data we report onlygoes up to a maximum bit-width of 1024, so this limitation is not reflected in our graphs. Also,the Goldschmidt divider has a smaller range than the other dividers because it was not able tosynthesize above a width of 244. This is due to the limited number of DSP blocks.4.1 AreaThe FPGA used in these tests is the 5CGXFC9E7F35C8 from the Cyclone V line. This FPGA ischosen due to its large amount of available ALMs and DSP blocks. The maximum ALMs that ourFPGA has in this study is 113,560.

Additionally,Mechanical Engineering (ME) and Industrial Engineering (IE) students showed lowercollaborative learning beliefs compared to their counterparts in Electrical and ComputerEngineering (ECE).
