Several improvements were made over the years. Each iteration provided students with valuable “green” learning skills such as solar panel construction, solar panel types, solar panel interconnection, solar panel orientation, solar panel efficiency, battery types, battery characteristics, battery maintenance, PWM and MPPT charge controllers, data collection and power management.3.1.2 Alternative Energy Club By the mid-2010’s students re-branded the Solar Boat Club as an “Alternative Energy Club” and branched off into additional projects such as electric cars and portable solar generators. © American Society for Engineering Education, 2024 2024 ASEE Midwest Section Conference Figure 5

nets which could handle complexlearning tasks. [6]. The development of deep learning in the 2010s significantly improved thecapability of neural nets to handle very large data sets. This enhanced the ability of artificialsystems to handle tasks such as image classification, speech recognition and natural languageprocessing, which had been handled with limited success by traditional programming techniques.A new deep learning technique, introduced by Ian Goodfellow in 2014, was the development ofGenerative Adversarial Networks (GANs), in which two neural nets—a generator and adiscriminator—compete with each other to produce realistic “human-like images, sounds, music,and text [5].” These advances led to the Large Language Model (LLM) platforms

Further,while our larger project is focused on equity in STEM faculty hiring for racially and ethnicallyminoritized individuals, we were interested in collecting and analyzing data (for future studies)that covered several additional dimensions of diversity (e.g., disability, socioeconomic status,gender identity, and sexual orientation). Neither ATDS nor ACES is as comprehensive as thePohan and Aguilar scales with respect to the dimensions of diversity addressed.Data collected from attitude scales is susceptible to participants’ tendency to provide responsesthat are in line with the prevailing beliefs within a given social arena, a phenomenonpsychologists call social desirability bias (Neherdorf 1985).
