Edward Berger is an Associate Professor of Engineering Education and Mechanical Engineering at Purdue University, joining Purdue in August 2014. He has been teaching mechanics for over 20 years, and has worked extensively on the integration and assessment of specific technology interventions in mechanics classes. He was one of the co-leaders in 2013-2014 of the ASEE Virtual Community of Practice (VCP) for mechanics educators across the country. His current research focuses on student problem-solving pro- cesses and use of worked examples, change models and evidence-based teaching practices in engineering curricula, and the role of non-cognitive and affective factors in student academic outcomes and overall success.Dr

In the present study, the primary unit of analysis is the design team.Participating design teams were in classrooms that participated in the larger study during itssecond year of data collection; were video–recorded as part of qualitative data collection for thelarger project; and learned two science–integrated engineering units in sequence, Unit 1 and Unit2. Unit 1 for all teams was an EiE bridges unit in which students used simple materials toconstruct a strong and stable bridge across two abutments [20].

with industry, colleges of engineering arestriving to be "one-stop-shops". As part of these partnerships, the role of research and graduateeducation is often a central focus. Indeed, in addition to tangible research results, companies areoften very interested in hiring advanced degree candidates as well as traditional undergraduateengineering students. One of the key ingredients in working out such partnerships is findingways to entice outstanding students into completion of an advanced degree.Despite the increasing prevalence of such opportunities, graduate school is not often thought ofby students as a career path, especially early in their undergraduate curriculum.

An ESP-32, a Low-cost, Low-Power system-on-a-chip L-PSoC microcontroller with integrated Wi-Fi and dual-mode Bluetooth, was used to turnthe ISO-UART connection to the master board into a Wi-Fi connection. This conversion ofconnection type is the basis of what is now a wireless D-BMS, and all data was then transferred toa MATLAB script for data to be visualized and analyzed.
