overall weight of the vehicle if they prove successful enough to replacethe on-board batteries. Project BANSHEE plans to develop and manufacture a SINCHDrone(Solar and Induction Charged ultra-high endurance Drone) UAV VTOL hybrid by modifying acommercial Volantex ASW-28 fixed wing RC airplane with VTOL spars and four quadcoptermotors and propellers to be used as a technology demonstrator vehicle which can provide proofof concept of the success of the battery regeneration techniques listed above. Previous years’ CalPoly Pomona BANSHEE student teams initiated and developed the basic concepts andtechnologies approach for the SINCHdrone In-flight rechargeable UAV concepts. This paperbuilds on that previous work and discusses further developments in

theirexpertise in 3D modeling. Because experience builds expertise [4], the more technically relevantskills that CATIA students are exposed resulted in elevated degrees of competence andproficiency.A major reason for the curriculum update was to put a stop to the circulation of assignment answersamong students to increase student learning. We plan to continue to update the curriculum bychanging the assignment parts to maintain academic integrity as well as continuing weekly timedquizzes to better prepare students for the CATIA certification exam.We plan to continue to collect data this semester to determine if CATIA certification scorescontinue to improve. Additionally, another semester of data will help us determine if GPAs aretypically higher in the

A majority of students would recommend this course to other students and rated highly theremote learning experience. The course addresses emerging biomedical data privacy issues and facilitatescollaboration between engineers, healthcare and legal professionals. 1. IntroductionThe detail and diversity of collected healthcare and biomedical data is constantly increasing. Health information iscollected through mobile devices [6], in personal domains [3], and from sensors attached on or in human bodies[13], [21].The amount of genomic sequencing data has risen exponentially in recent years recent years [12

welcomed by graduatestudents and many of their advisors. It is a unique resource - distinct from traditionalwriting centers in its disciplinary focus of engineering graduate students and in itspedagogical stance vis-a-vis multilingual speakers. It is also a highly welcomedresource, as shown by student feedback.Currently, there is no commitment from the school or elsewhere in terms of continuingthe Hub beyond its first year. However, the Hub's instructors plan to re-apply for internalfunding and continue investigating external sources. If the Hub continues beyond its firstyear, there are plans for expanding the number of tutoring hours with additionalinstructions, along with offering more community-building events for Ph.D. students,such as more

In Their Own Words: How Engineering Students Adapted to Disruptive Transitions Between Online and In-Person Learning Tara Esfahani and David A. Copp Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering University of California, IrvineAbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic created an unprecedented shift in students’ learning environments thatcaused students who planned on in-person instruction to learn online instead. This changeaffected students’ learning attitudes, anxiety, and success. In this work, we present students’personal voices to better understand how sudden disruptions in education affected students overnearly two years of transitioning between
