evaluation questions we posed to participants. To assesswhether our conference model and structure assisted or impeded our goals the evaluator askedquestions related to (a) extent to which individual sessions provided opportunity forcontributions to conference goals (b) extent to which individual sessions affirmed the value ofparticipants’ input (c) extent to which individual sessions provided new knowledge, insight orunderstanding for the participant (d) overall session impact. Below, we present our participants’feedback to these four questions.At the end of the conference, our external evaluator administered online surveys to collect datafrom participants about their experience in the conference and the value they believed eachsession had with

estimations for practical designs. b) Cool Roofing New technologies are now becoming available to finish roofs that can divert incoming solar radiation that heat up the top floors of buildings. Conventional asphalt and tar shingle roofs are being replaced with ‘green roofs’: rooftop gardens that absorb sunlight and moderate rooftop rainwater runoff. However, green rooftops may not be appropriate atop all buildings, particularly those with steep roof slants, or where regular maintenance is problematic. Group B proposed the use of a ‘cool roof’ coating, which is a pigment or coating that reflects sunlight and insulates the top floor of a building from heat that would otherwise be transmitted to the upper
” educationefforts, “to investigate empirically the ways in which college students bring knowledgeand experiences together so that educators can better understand undergraduate studentlearning and more intentionally promote the integration of learning.” Barber identifiedthree distinct types of integration of learning: (a) connection, the discovery of a similaritybetween ideas that themselves remain distinctive; (b) application, the use of knowledgefrom one context in another; and (c) synthesis, the creation of new knowledge bycombining insights.What have been the driving forces behind these interdisciplinary and integrativeinitiatives? At the beginning of the 20th century, a traditional liberal arts educationtypically included courses in sciences, social

the outcomes demonstrated by students viathe evaluative components, grades were assigned ranging from A (attainment of all outcomes ata proficient level) to B- (attainment of 1 outcome at a proficient level).Student ProjectsThroughout the course, students were asked to maintain and continuously update a coursejournal. This journal consisted of entries similar to a diary in which students would reflect uponthe broader impacts topic being discussed and record their level of personal interest andalignment of personal values with the goals and impact of that specific broader impacts (BI)activity. The intent here was for the students to identify an area of BI activity that aligned withtheir interests and motivations right from the beginning
microliters (𝜇L), of aqueous analytethrough the hydrophilic (non-wax) channels through capillary action (Figure 1d). The analytecan be thus “pumped” toward regions with pre-deposited reagents, providing a chemical sensingplatform that can be customized for the analyte. The analyte can be qualitatively or quantitativelycharacterized through color of the reaction product or other means, such as sensing current froman electrochemical reaction (Li, Ballerini & Shen, 2012). This technology platform has thepotential to serve as an ultra-low cost sensor for disease vectors or toxins; upon completion ofthe test, the paper device, typically on the order of cm2 area, can be burned to eliminatehazardous waste. a b c

Itincludes four distinct recommendations, every one of which is specific enough to be actionable.The graph below shows the final course grades for the past five years plotted as a function of thetotal number of words each student submitted. Each of the 276 points represents a studentenrolled in the class in a particular semester, therefore any student repeating the course appearsas more than one point on the graph. The points are color-coded according to course grade: A =blue, B = red, C = orange, and D or F = black. The passing grade in this course is a C.We can rank the students by the total number of words they wrote: less than 1000, 1000 to 2000,2000 to 3000, and more than 3000.

This concept implements a userinterface, a scanner, and a controlled motor to account for: (a) inventory, and (b) to automate thefood item retrieval process. V. Project SolutionThe concept behind the Smart Pantry system is to allow a user to scan-in purchased groceriesthrough a data system. This allows a user to develop an active inventory of what food is availablein the pantry. The data stored includes the product type, product name, the product’s expirationdate, and the location within the pantry that the item is stored. This information is made accessiblethrough a touchscreen interface on the unit itself as well as through a smartphone application thatis
