], the reviews done by students are themselves reviewed byother students, to give students an incentive to submit good reviews. In this case, no student mayreview his own work, nor may (s)he review her own review. A mapping that satisfies theseconstraints is called a “valid” mapping.2. Overview of our strategyThe basic idea of this algorithm is similar to the banker’s algorithm [SGG 01] used for resourceallocation in operating systems.Definition 1. A mapping assignment of a reviewer to a reviewee is valid if it does not cause areviewer to review his/her own submission, and leaves sufficient valid mapping assignments forall future reviewers.Definition 2. A mapping assignment is invalid either if it does not leave enough valid mappingassignments

Later in Homework 4 the students plot out a course plan tograduation that meets the requirements for the EnvE B.S. degree at the University of Colorado atBoulder.

Originally this work was driven by alarming data suggesting that women leaveengineering at higher rates than men.1,2 More recent studies suggest that women and men leaveengineering at equal rates during the college years.3,4Factors influencing persistence and attrition are often similar for men and women, but there aresome important differences. For example, Atman5 reported data from the Academic PathwaysStudy in which seniors identified motivating factors in their decisions to study engineering.Intrinsic psychological factors (liking engineering as a subject or field) and intrinsic

Therefore, a simulated VRenvironment is well suited for this learning purpose.We integrate VR, gamification with reinforcement learning to provide a holistic remote learningexperience. We create a VR learning environment simulating a manufacturing paradigm calledcraft production. The VR learning environment is built in the Unity game engine with the OculusRift S VR system for navigation and motion tracking. In the VR environment, students seethrough the headset a factory composed of a series of workstations. For the task, students areasked to design and assemble toy cars using plastic components.

The CooL:SLiCE platform provides aweb-based portal with three learning modules: 1) Visualization and online computer-aideddesign (CAD), 2) Sustainable product architecture and supplier selection (S-PASS), and 3)Manufacturing analysis.

some withdrawal from an area where aquifersconstitute a major portion of water supply for other purposes. Likewise, injection of an oxidantwith the leach solution causes valence and phase changes of indigenous elements such as As, Cu,Mo, Se, S, and V, as well as U, thereby increasing the aqueous concentrations of these species aswell. A question of major concern at ISR mining sites is how to restore the groundwater to itsoriginal chemical composition. Restoration is necessary to reduce the amounts of undesiredchemical constituents left in solution after mining operations and thus to return the groundwaterto a quality consistent with pre-mining use and potential use. One promising approach torestoring groundwater quality at ISR sites is to

Based ona free-body diagram, the system differential equation is expressed in (1). Using LaplaceTransform, this time-domain equation leads to a position-to-external force transfer functiongiven by equation (2). Once the transfer function is derived, a set of parameter values (m = 0.1kg, b = 1 N*s/m and k = 2 N/m) is used to obtain the system transfer function shown in (3

“The practice of gaining supervised practical experience is nothing new” [1]. Internshipsas part of a formal education program can trace its roots back to the Middle Ages where it wascommon practice to learn a trade under the direct supervision of a master craftsman. Apprenticesoften had to agree to “pay back” their employer by agreeing to work for a certain period of timeonce they were considered fully trained. In the early days, most, if not all of the training wasdone on the job, with little formal theoretical education. By the early 1900’s, experiential learning had established itself at institutions of highereducation in several fields. The clinical training programs for medical students were recognizedas a key component in
