identities are encouraged and how strongly they are expressed. Separating bygender, the results show the significant difference between men, women, and nonbinaryengineering students and how they consider their gender identity. The average Model for MultipleDimensions of Identity based on school type can help understand students' priorities when decidingto attend a small school.References[1] A. D. Patrick and M.

Instructional technology has developed at the same time as pedagogical approaches haveexpanded to serve more diverse learners [13]. Engineers cross-trained in VMC in addition totheir discipline-specific skills will highly contribute to their professional growth.Professionalization also entails a successful life-stage transition from student to employee, whichcorresponds with a change of responsibilities and expectations.

followed by a series of plans which saw rapid ad-vancements in industry, agriculture and education. Engineering enroll-ments increased to over 75,000 each year. Engineering schools were ex-panded at home, and in addition, students were sent to study in Russianuniversities. At the same time, the government developed its philosophyof education. Mao s support during the liberation depended on the peasants and 1workers and while Mao recognized the need for an educated populace, hewanted to place restrictions on the development of an intellectual class.The result was that the state or rulers took the right and responsibilityto improve society by using education to improve the moral conduct of thepeople.

suspension of disbelief on the part of the student. In Deshpande etal.’s [23] review of simulation games in engineering education, they found many advantages ofteaching engineering concepts through simulated environments over traditional classroominstruction, including but not limited to connecting theory to practice, customizability ofdifficulty to match students comprehension level, reduction of resistance to accepting innovativeideas and concepts, and greater retention of concepts over time. Another advantage ofsimulation-based learning is its compatibility with online learning, which continues to be agrowing trend, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic [11], [18], [31], [32].Using virtual systems to augment education is not only limited to

Begun almosta half century ago, the laboratory capabilities and student experiments were originally based onmeasurement equipment in the VHF, UHF, and X-bands. In the early years core experimentswere based on use of the slotted line and General Radio equipment at the lower frequencies andthe slotted waveguide and Hewlett Packard equipment in the X-band. In time, computer analysisand design of microwave devices was added.STUDENT EXPERIMENTS IN THE EARLY YEARSThe applied electromagnetics laboratory of the 1970 s included labs such as the following: (1)measurement of transmission-line characteristics, (2) microwave power measurements, (3)modeling

This has been the sameperson since the course s inception; it was first run in 2003. It was developed from an electivelecture-only course that this individual gave in 2000; it was found that particle technology is arich subject for class-demonstrations and the experiments to be described grew out of these. Theapparatus for the experiments was constructed with readily available components and simplebench-top or hand tools; no machine-shop work was required. Two texts have been used over the history of the course, viz. Introduction to ParticleTechnology (1) and Fundamentals of Particle Technology (2). The latter one is

distributed elements (such as microstriptransmission lines) or with pre-packaged gain blocks. The most straightforward way, and the waythe RF industry uses, of measuring these one and two-port networks is using S-parameters. Tomake the measurements, a two-port vector network analyzer (VNA) can be employed to makethese S-parameter measurements directly, from which other network parameters could be derivedif necessary. Until recently, VNAs were very expensive for frequencies in the GHz range so thatmakes measurements problematic for larger classes where students would have to wait to gainaccess to the instrument. Recently and with the advances in single-chip components, VNA pricesfor hobbyists have come down dramatically and now a full two-port VNA for

, we seek to apply and validate an assessment strategy to categorizestudents’ ways of experiencing human-centered design. We directly build on Zoltowski et al.’s[2] findings which suggest that engineering students experience human-centered design in sevencategorically discrete ways. Guided by this prior study, we seek to address the research question,“To what extent can we use post-course open-ended written reflection data to identifyengineering students’ ways of experiencing human-centered design?” The use of reflection datato categorize students’ ways of experiencing human-centered design is unique from othermethods that have extended Zoltowski et al.’s work but may offer a more accessible assessmentmodality for design instructors.
