adapted versionof PRS, a web-based PRS namely Poll Everywhere (www.pollev.com) is introduced in this paperand allows students to use their cell phone, tablet or computer as clickers. Poll Everywhere hasbeen invented initially for public presentation purpose but rarely discussed by some researchersfor educational purpose [9, 15-19]. Dr. Grasman’s team [17] initiated the study of using Polleverywhere in the classroom. And Dr. W. Kappers’ s team [15] extended Dr. Grasman’s study touse PollEverywhere in the large-lecture classroom settings. Both studies found the studentengagement is enhanced after using Poll Everywhere. But the impact of using Poll everywhere inthe classroom may varies by different disciplines. As such, a case-based study of using

electricalengineering programs offer concentration in mechatronics. There are several approaches toimplementing these programs and concentrations and because Mechatronics is relatively youngdiscipline, introduced in the 1980’s, there are no established model or best approaches. Thus,mechatronics programs depend on the context and the department where they are hosted. Theauthor’s approach was to evaluate the context and resources available and design a mechatronicsprogram by starting with an appropriate pilot course.!The author, has recently joined the electrical engineering program at Merrimack College, aprimarily undergraduate college in Massachusetts.

The action plan should state the learning objective, the action(s) to be taken ormethod by which the objective is to be met, and the means of monitoring and reviewing progress. 4Discussion & LimitationsOne of the gurus on the concept of competency, Richard Boyatsiz together with his colleagueSaatcioglu argues that the perfect set of competencies should be formed of three dimensionswhich are emotional, social and cognitive intelligence (Boyatsiz & Saatcioglu, 2008). Afteranalyzing the latest version of student outcomes from Boyatsiz’s perspective, we can say thatmost of the outcomes match with the

It is also encouragingthat the students identified the value of the short writing assignments in refining their thinkingand improving their communication skills.ConclusionsOverall, this project was successful in

Detailed Case Study: Ultrasonic Distance Sensor Overview of HC-SR04 The HC-SR04 module is an inexpensive (about US $3) ultrasonic distance sensor, as shownin Figure 2 [5]. It measures the elapsed time of a reflected ultrasonic pulse. The distance thencan be calculated by a simple formula: distance = elapsed_time * speed_of_sound / 2The measurement range of the module is between 2 cm to 400 cm and the resolution is 3 mm(which corresponds to the17-s elapsed time).

Students worked in small teams to identify and contextualize the problem associatedwith the selected goal, and then to develop a set of proposed objectives, targets, and actionsfor the firm to contribute to the global goal over the next five years, and present the

However, theonly way vacuum course(s) can currently be incorporated into the EET program is as technicalelective course(s) taken during the fourth semester. A result of this mis-alignment in sequencingbetween institutions was that some parts of the Introduction to Vacuum Technology course weretoo rudimentary for fourth semester students. As a result, the EET department has since maderevisions to the program that allow for one technical elective course during the third semester.This will allow students to take the introductory vacuum course during third semester and one ortwo advanced vacuum courses during the fourth semester.
