Enthusiasm for Mathematics through RoboticsAbstractThis evidence-based practice paper describes the study of generating enthusiasm for mathematicsthrough robotics. A survey of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute undergraduate students taking theRobotics I course showed that, while many students have a great interest for mathematics, morethan 1 in 4 of those same students expressed that they were not adequately prepared for themathematics required. This is particularly concerning for those teaching engineering coursesbecause concepts of robotics and mathematics are very much intertwined. Therefore, thisinspired a study of younger middle school and high school students to i) assess preexistingnotions of mathematics and robotics, ii) introduce an

Requirements are instead represented in tables/matrices withappropriate relationships displayed.Tables and MatricesOne of MagicDraw’s strengths is its ability to generate tables and matrices on demand of directand multi-order relationships between elements. Students are shown how to use tables andmatrices to investigate model consistency, completeness, and as a basis for rich self-explorationof a system model.Figure 5: Table of OperationsThis table lists operations from the PRZ-1 model; it also shows the owning block, the definitionof the function, what call operation nodes reference it, and what activity

versionused in this study is widely accepted as a measure of chronic stress due to ongoing lifecircumstances and expectations about future events. In this format, responses to 10 questions, ratedon a scale of 0 (Never) – 1 (Almost Never) – 2 (Sometimes) – 3 (Fairly Often) – 4 (Very Often),are scored to yield a number which serves as a measure of the respondent’s stress level. Individualscores are then grouped to determine the average and standard deviation. High stress levels areconsidered to be indicated by scores more than one standard deviation above the mean in thisstudy.It is generally recognized that high stress levels, experienced over an extended period of time, willnot prove beneficial to successful academic performance.

From Table 1, the engaged students at both ASU andPitt most frequently noted 1) application and active learning via games, 2) an actual positiveimpact of games on technical learning and performance, 3) the motivating and fun nature ofgames, and 4) an overall desirableness of games for learning.

The workshop was devised to achieve three primarygoals: 1) Encourage consideration of a career in electrical and computer engineering 2) Buildexcitement about the Internet-of-Things and provide students with a future technical focus and 3)Introduce students to the fundamental building blocks that make up the Internet-of-Things. Duringthis activity, students complete a project in which they first construct a circuit to read data from atemperature sensor using a microcontroller platform. The students then write software to transmitthat data over a short-range wireless network and then eventually to an Internet-connected

The literature shows FGS haveunique experiences in college and are more likely to be unprepared for the engineering rigorneeded. Despite these claims, many FGS in engineering often succeed to graduation, yet littlework has examined the experiences and attitudes that aided in their success.

College Student in EngineeringAbstractThis research study explored first-generation college students’ in engineering post-graduationcareer intentions based on responses to a quantitative survey. In this paper, we answer thefollowing research questions: 1) How do first-generation college students’ measures of physics,mathematics, and engineering identity constructs differ compared to non-first-generation collegestudents? and 2) How does a physics identity influence first-generation college student’s choice ofan engineering major and career aspirations? The data came from the Intersectionality of Non-normative Identities in the Cultures of Engineering (InIce) survey. InIce was completed by 2,916first-year engineering college students enrolled in

. The other is that courses have in general becomenarrower in their technical focus as the depth of knowledge has developed. In addition, thecross‐disciplinary content is often quite limited. To be a material engineer, one should notonly focus on the science research in materials but also in application of traditional andadvanced materials in a wide spectrum of areas. We all know that training Materialengineers for the next generation requires more than teaching them knowledge of materialscience. Learning to apply the design process as reported can be the key for students tounderstand the blending of Materials Science with humanity needs [1-3].

Most modules require two in-class laboratory periods to complete, oneperiod designated as a planning period and the other as an experimental period. Following thefirst laboratory period, students write a planning report (a technical memo) in groups of 3-4 andfollowing the experimental period the students individually write a summary report (a technicalmemo). The final laboratory module requires a 20-minute group presentation and a fulllaboratory report. Thus, the course, as implemented in the past, required 10-14 writtenassignments, but had been lacking instruction in

common to all university students. Technicalcommunication is one of the most relevant and utilized across disciplines. Technical andprofessional communication genres and strategies are defined by their context and purpose in theworkplace (Hart-Davidson, 2001). Engineering students who understand how technicalcommunication works and deploy its strategies typically add three kinds of value to a technicalproject by effectively 1) designing documents that convey information in usable forms, 2)working with and refining collaborative practices to maximize collaborative output, and 3)recognizing patterns and structures across specific problems or projects as well as providingstrategic thinking that can productively impact large systems and data sets

The detailed instruction video can be found onwww.designheuristics.com.Then, the students were asked to apply Design Heuristics to generate4 new concepts in 20 minutes. Design Heuristic cards were divided before the session into twosets of 5 (“A” and “B”) to include a variety but limited number of cards appropriate to the timelimit (See Table 1). We selected several cards that encouraged user interactions and productmodifications. Each team was given either
