At our institution faculty began experimenting with both developing theirown freely available online materials as well as referring students to MIT open courseware forsupplemental materials for their courses. Until 2010 these efforts in our electrical engineeringprogram were individual and not generally coordinated even at

All sixsections were led by UTAs, with four sections utilizing three person groups. The other twosections used the same materials and were led by UTAs without the three person groups. Thecourse also uses online interactive and educational software to deliver the material andautomatically grade the students’ assignments.1.

A study involving hundreds of companies reflectedthe importance of oral communication skills1. About 30% of the companies indicatedstrong oral communications skills as important in new hires1,2. Also, 73% of thecompanies believed more emphasis should be placed in developing this skill. At theundergraduate level, universities provide communication skills training through generaleducation courses and usually with project presentations by student teams in engineeringcourses3. At the graduate level, seminar courses tend to be used as a place to developoral communication skills

. Now more than ever, teams are beingrecognized as dynamic in nature, a far cry from the common assumption of static, with looseboundaries and fluid memberships6. It is not uncommon for engineers to face the challenge ofworking with constantly changing teams, and as such it is important to understand membershipchange, its overarching effects on outcomes, and how to survive it.Membership change Promotions, selection, layoffs, retirement, role transitions, and absenteeism are just a fewreasons that members may be removed or added to a team7. More often than notmultidisciplinary teams are formed and employees need to be accustomed to working with newteam members who are brought on to a project. It is extremely important for teams to be able

Ninety nine (76%) of these students were supported via funding from the NationalScience Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates program. The other 32 (24%)were supported through institutional funds. More than half of the students (56.5%) were female,26.7% of the students were from underrepresented groups, and 52.7% students without previousresearch experience. The undergraduate research program understudy is a 10-week engineeringresearch project working in research laboratories at the University or a collaborating MedicalSchool.

Page 26.10.21 IntroductionRetina is a light-sensitive layer of tissue (Figure 1), located at the inner surfaceof the eye. The optics of the eye creates an image on the retina, similar tothe film in a camera. Light striking the retina activates nerve impulses. Thesepulses are sent to various parts of the brain through the optic nerve. Retinascans require that the person removes their glasses, place their eye close tothe scanner. A retinal scan involves the use of a low-intensity coherent lightsource, which is projected onto the retina . A retina scan cannot be faked andit is impossible to forge a human retina. Furthermore, the retina of a deceasedperson decays too rapidly to be used to deceive a retinal scan [17, 18]. Therecognition of a

applications of DSP that can helpcaptivate students and motivate them to learn the theoretical material. Perhaps the best way toexpose students to the applications of DSP is with a laboratory course, but at some institutions afull laboratory course in DSP is not feasible due to time, space, and funding constraints.Alternatives to laboratories include projects, simulations, and demonstrations. Although manyDSP algorithms can be demonstrated using offline (not real-time) processing, somedemonstrations are just more compelling if they operate in real-time. A real-time demonstrationwith audio signals, for example, can be more interesting because the user can use his/her ownvoice as the input and hear the results immediately.Many authors have explored
