given discipline would have both UI and CD components, but their relative emphasis may varygreatly from one discipline to the next. 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. The emphasis on incorporating problem-solving, dataanalytics, and writing skills into coursework reflects a commitment to aligning academic trainingwith the broader skills needed for

empathetic communication. A systematic review found that simulation-basedinterventions that are both immersive and experiential were the most effective method ofempathic education [32]. 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. Collaboration and communication between nursing and engineering is
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. In this paper some of the challenges of evaluating 3DCAD modeling efficacy are explored

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. Omar may not have beenexposed to the importance of inclusive or equitable practices in the way Zenith was

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

A summary of the training follows: Guidance for tutors • Reflect on the purpose of the activity and how students experience it • Students have written guidance and can complete the activity independently • Avoid telling students things directly or giving them instructions • Listen to students, understand their point of view first and use that as a starting point • Be positive and
completed the survey near the end of each school term, with the Winter termsurveys completed in March 2023, and the Spring term surveys completed in June 2023. TheMECH-431 courses were complete by the time the survey was taken by enrolled students, so theywere able to reflect on the course as a whole at the time of completing the surveys.4.1 HypothesisResults are determined in this study by inductive reasoning. Based on the results of the literaturereview, it is clear that some dynamics systems and controls undergraduate laboratory courses atother institutions have effectively employed hands-on laboratory exercises at low cost. Therefore,a reasonable resulting hypothesis is that low cost physical laboratory experiments can beemployed effectively in

This commitment to a shift in the educationalapproach within MSE departments is highlighted in the strategic plan of the National Scienceand Technology Council’s Materials Genome Initiative, which posits that the next generation ofthe MSE workforce will need to master three competencies: experimentation, data management,and computation [4].MSE educators have worked to construct educational offerings that develop competencies in theareas identified by the Materials Genome Initiative.

This question was derived from previous work that quantitatively exploredundergraduate engineering identity and recognition beliefs [11] and specifically uses thephrasing “see you as an engineer” to keep questions in the participants’ language [37]. The open-ended nature of the focus groups allowed for follow-up questions and permitted researchers togather rich details about participants’ experiences to go beyond whether they do or do notbelieve others saw them as an engineer and to better explore the qualities of experiences that ledto these beliefs. Questions relevant to this study are presented in Table 1.Table 1: Focus

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

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

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. Very few dividers in this study approached this maximumnumber of
