. Some offer apps that include conceptsrelated to programming and controls, such as block programming, which can be found in toyslike Kamigami robots [37], and trajectory planning, which can be found in toys like the Spherorobot. Some toys include advanced vision capabilities [38] and an interactive learningenvironment, such as the Cozmo robot. The Cozmo robot (shown in Figure 1) is an autonomousrobot that is shaped like a truck [39]. It integrates computer vision capabilities with artificialintelligence algorithms [40]. Children can interact with it and see how the robot can readinformation from the objects in its proximity, which is important for various applications inmaterial tracking. It also has vision recognition capabilities that are

The blame falls on me for underestimating biology and putting a lot of time to graphics. I plan to solve this by seeing the biology teacher for help. I wish to actually understand how to work through his purely conceptual tests.First entries by Author Y Entry 1: My old school, [name of prior university], had a campus that you could walk from any building to another within 10 minutes.

Stanford does not teach their students Engineering Drawinguntil their second year, but they still made this class a requirement before advanced engineeringdesign classes [3]. These colleges are similar to NAU’s Mechanical Engineering 4-yearprogression plan because they require introductory mathematical and engineering design coursesin the students’ first years.

. However, due to alack of emphasis on Computer Science, current instructors are not adequately equipped to teach suchcourses. Creating engaging lesson plans requires a comprehensive understanding of Computer Sciencetopics. Crucial to the success of legislative efforts like SF29, training K-12 teachers to understand theseconcepts and teach them effectively necessitates appropriate outreach from experienced institutions. Given the widespread use of technology, students have a basic understanding of Computer Science,but need refined programming skills to leverage this technology in their future professions. Waitingfor higher education to expose students to these concepts inhibits their potential and stunts theiracademic growth. Our summer outreach

the assessment plan adopted by the department basedon the following principles: 1. The achievement of each SO is to be demonstrated by a primary course and possibly by a supporting course. Both courses must be from the systems engineering core component that is completed by all students. 2. The achievement of each SOs should include the assessment of all components of that particular SO. 3. The methodology of measurement should be straightforward, measuring directly the achievement of the SO by measuring the achievement of its component parts instead of by indirect means such as measuring the accomplishment of course learning objectives and then mapping the objectives to the SO. 4.

: Before the semester started, I had simply planned to teach the class based mostly on a very lecture-centered focus. That is, I planned to be talking during most of the lecture time. However, the training made me realize the importance of getting students to participate in the learning process. I was able to brainstorm ideas about how to get the students involved. This led to the creation of worksheets that I used during the latter half of the course.The results of ranking the seven practices indicate that participants shifted priorities among theoptions presented. For instance, one participant responded, “Although I was aware of most ofthese concepts to some extent, I thought reviewing the 7 best practices in teaching was
