Textual analysis of student communications within andacross the teams offers a novel lens through which educational researchers can groundstudent-reported experiences in actual student communicative and collaborative efforts. Thefaculty members conducting the action research study included Slack in their instructional designfor the following reasons, (a) interprofessional communication was expected throughout allaspects of the project, (b) providing a standard platform of communication (as mandated
for the three propellers increased almost linearly till reaching maximum value thendroping down for each propeller. Several factors can be responsible for this. The cavitationphenomena are most likely the cause of this problem, particularly in a four-bladed propellerwhere the thrust value drops sharply. The next challenge was the fluctuation of the rod during thetests that led to a severe vibration of the rod. In many cases, increasing the rotational speed wasimpossible. The following methods could resolve these problems.(a) Retest the same rod and propeller assembly using methods in approaches 1 and 2.(b) Use pully and belt mechanism to rotate the propeller. In this case, the shaft length will be minimized, and vibration issue will be
broadened thestudents’ knowledge and some student’s minds were undoubtedly enlarged in the wayNewman envisaged (see Appendix B), but Davies did not discuss Newman’s work in thatlight.Differences and similaritiesAlthough there has been substantial progress in the development of philosophies ofengineering that have some common ground [21] nothing has been written that is theequivalent of the philosophies that underpin the liberal education which give liberal studiesteachers their credence. The nine articles in Handbook 4 and others presented to the Divisionmay be taken as the beginning of a search for such a philosophy. Technological literacy willnot survive without such a philosophy. But that may not turn out to be possible for whereasthe

First, prior to the start of themodule, students completed PRE open-ended questions (shown below). Second, at the end of themodule, students responded to the same POST open-ended questions. The open-ended questionswill be analyzed qualitatively through thematic analysis to understand potential themes in the data.According to Braun and Clark [49], a thematic analysis is a foundational qualitative method fordiscovering patterns within the data. It should be conducted using a step by step process. Theresearchers first became thoroughly familiar with the data to

This lecture provides a definition for and talksabout the differences and similarities between probes and sensors and shows examples of boththat are available and will be used throughout the semester during the lab component of thecourse. The concepts of sensor accuracy and code width are reviewed and the idea of how theselection of probes can impact the measurement accuracy and response. One example that isused in the lecture is the use of a pressure transducer and pitot static tube to determine thevelocity of a flowing fluid. Figure 2 shows the components of the measurement system, the pitotstatic tube (a.) is a probe and the pressure transducer (b.) is the sensor. The material

yeardemographics, highlighting the importance of freshman engagement. Some evidence supportsthe idea that specialized freshman courses help to retain students, especially when they are majorspecific [9]. At the institution where this study occurs, there is a freshman course for allengineering, but not specifically for the BME major. This could be one potential way to increaseoverall retention by engaging with the department and creating a sense of belonging. Although, itis unclear how this could affect retention of URMs and women.Factors Related to Academic PreparednessOf the 63 students who switched out of the major in the 2018 cohort, a little over half (n=37) didnot meet the B or better grade requirements in the EMP. One third (n=21) did meet all of

protocol (MrYsLab, n.d.) that allows a Python programrunning on a host computer to communicate with the Arduino over a USB virtual serial COMport. One reason to use Pymata is that its extensions to Firmata allowed us to have both rotaryencoder and servo motor functionality, which we needed, but which is not present in StandardFirmata. Doing so bought us time for evaluating an alternative microcontroller and also allowedus to continue to use the custom-designed Arduino shield that we had developed over theprevious eight years. Appendix B gives details of the custom shield (called the YouKnow board)used through the spring of 2019.
