solver suites and real world applications using Python, Maple and Matlab IntroductionThe objective of this paper is to teach students how to solve ODEs using Python and Matlab’sODE solver programming tools. This teaching module will thus prepare our beginning juniorelectronics, computer, and bioengineering students before they encounter sensor/signalconditioning, processing, and other topics that they may delve into for their capstone seniorproject. Matlab also presents several tools for modeling linear systems.This paper will explain how this learning and teaching module is instrumental for progressivelearning of students; the paper will also demonstrate how the numerical and integral algorithmsare derived and computed through leverage of the

limitedability to verbalize their knowledge. Researchers argue that proper engineering “intellectualbehavior” must be developed to the point where students become competent problem solvers withan ability to use learned skills in analogous contexts, that is, in this case, from learning electriccircuit concepts to their application in real-world situations. The purpose of this study is to explorestudents’ ability to justify real-world electrical scenarios and determine ill-conceived circuitconcepts associated with them by answering the following questions: How do students articulatetheir learned concepts in electric circuits? How do students use their learning of electric circuitsin explaining real-world electrical phenomena? This study used a qualitative

experience with real data and real applications. While significant progress has beenmade in the former, one key aspect that has yet to be addressed is hands-on experienceincorporating real-world applications. Specifically, it is insufficient for undergraduate students tobe handed a “canned” data set and be told to analyze it using the methods that they are studying.Such an approach will not prepare them to solve more realistic and complex problems, especiallythose involving large, unstructured data. Instead, students need repeated practice with the entireDSE cycle beginning with ill-posed questions and “messy” data [1]. To this end, the followinggaps have been identified.

For example, whenteaching about the layers of the Earth, a two-dimensional video animation can show the differentstructures of the Earth, but an AR experience could take the user inside the Earth, allowing for asense of being present there, and enabling exploration and linking the knowledge with personalexperience. Experiences like these can help provide the student with “authentic learning,” whichrelies upon a situated and realistic (in terms of future applicability) learning experience [23].The authors are currently in the process of improving the second prototype AR experiencedescribed above by

this paper are intended to be applied on a much larger scale.From the perspective of Sarah Jansen et al, (2011), there is potential in the idea of capturing energyfrom sound, but researchers have not yet made it feasible to do so in a way that is efficient enoughfor real-world implementation. Alternatively, Sarah Jansen et al is prioritizing harvesting energyfrom the sun when considering energy conservation options since Sun is the free abundant energysource to the earth. According to Bhatnagar et al (2012), by viewing sound as a mechanical formof energy in the form of a wave, it becomes easier to imagine how sound can become electricity.- The oscillation of the sound waves creates pressure, which then allows the sound to be convertedto an

To address this problem, we can turn to competency-based education (CBE)[8], [13]. CBE is not a new pedagogical concept. It has a relatively long history in K-12education and higher education [14], [15]. According to Geravis, 2016, CBE can trace its originsin US education back to the Morill Land-Acts of 1862 and the notion of applied education.CBE focuses on having students demonstrate the mastery and application of knowledge andskills beyond the confines of the classroom (i.e., in the real world). CBE is also known asoutcomes or problem-based learning [16]. The goal of CBE is to better balance the expectationsand

However, students will realize that there is a consistentvariation between estimated times and costs when compared to real data of actual projects.Although this may seem obvious, or even acceptable, it certainly begs the question of whether abetter model or algorithm can be developed to explain the relationship between estimation andreal-world outcomes. This is where theoretical and generalized models show their weaknessesand allow for an opportunity for technologies that can better fit and realize more accuratepredictions than the simulation [17].Step 2: Preparing a Dataset for IBM Watson CloudTo demonstrate that the programmatic solution derived from traditional algorithms

Some indicated that when they took mathematics courses (e.g. calculus),they could not see real-world applications and felt that many concepts in mathematics are veryabstract and irrelevant to students’ real-world life experiences. Therefore, some students lackedextrinsic motivation to learn mathematics. As a result, their performance in mathematics did notmeet expectations and also caused a chain reaction affecting their subsequent performance inengineering.One potential approach to improving

Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive experience that combines a real-worldenvironment with computer-generated elements in the real world (Azuma et al., 2001;Wikipedia, 2021). The AR system has three features: a combination of real and virtual worlds,real-time interaction, and accurate 3D registration of virtual and real objects.AR was first employed as a training tool for airline and Air Force pilots during the early 1900s(Akçayır & Akçayır, 2017). Since then, it has been widely used in every school level from K-12(Chen & Tsai, 2012; Chiang, Yang, & Hwang, 2014
