Engineering Education, 2017 Dual Credit Programs: K-12 Outreach, Recruiting, or BothAbstractRecruiting consumes considerable resources for any post-secondary institution. Manyinstitutions also have a mission of K-12 engagement. A dual credit program helps an institutionfulfill its K-12 outreach mission and also provide valuable recruiting opportunities. This paperexplores the process of creating and implementing a dual credit program at Purdue PolytechnicAnderson, a regional location Purdue University’s statewide program.Traditional dual credit programs are concurrent enrollment models, whereby high school coursesare taught by high school faculty and for which high school juniors and seniors can also earncollege credit.

The algorithm utilized Google Apps Script’sability to generate and manipulate data objects while having full access to Google’s variety ofcloud services. Furthermore, to create a robust platform for improved student assignment, newproject and student requirements that could not previously be accommodated were added. For theFall 2014 term, the new automated approach was compared to the old manual sorting method byeach of the four engineering departments. Beyond the obvious benefits, further advantages of theautomated assignment are documented here. This paper describes the automation approach indetail and provides insights for implementing such a

. Moebs’14 focussed on the effect of ‘flow’ on QoEfor learners, in an attempt to address this. Although flow is expected to be highly relevant to theeffect of system performance (QoS) on QoE, the study does not account for the relative effect ofall the factors that are expected to impact on QoE for learning. For the purpose of this paper, it isenough to assume that a QoS threshold exists beyond which technical performance becomes thedominant (negative) factor in the learning experience. This observation is also supported bytechnical studies into Quality of Experience15, 16 that suggest that there is a logarithmicrelationship between technical performance parameters and quality of experience.Network access quality is a necessary but not a

This information andexplanation in the solutions manual would provide considerable information for an instructor tomake a judgment on a student’s understanding and assign a grade. Analysis: Flow through a control volume is steady when it involves no change with time at any specified position.

To address this issue we have begun investigating clustering techniques,such as k-means clustering [21], [22] and Locality Sensitive Hashing [23] to identify clusters ofneighboring ROIs within the multidimensional feature space and assign representative ROIs foreach cluster. Searching through this much smaller set of representative ROIs will be much moreefficient. These clusters will also form the basis for the image mining and annotation featuresdescribed earlier.7 Future WorkThe results accomplished in this six-month exploratory research have demonstrated the validityof

The majority ofstudents majoring in science, technology, engineering, or math made that decision during highschool.17Many high schools contribute to the low numbers and gender imbalance through non-existent CScourses or by mislabeled non-CS offerings, such as keyboarding, with the CS label. High schoolsalso often lack teachers trained in the CS subject area, are unaware of the gender issues incomputing, and engage in minimal efforts to recruit students into CS. Numerous calls forimprovement point to a need for: ● Access to high quality computing experiences, ● Public understanding of what computing really is, ● Course content, ● Teacher training, ● Education policies

Though both interventions differed in topics (video games vs. Mars rover),they showed similarly strong improvements in student self-efficacy in CT concepts. Thispedagogy shows that it has a positive impact how CT concepts are delivered through CS andcomputer programming at the K-12 level. Likewise, by expanding the survey done by Bell,we were able to gain more insight into specific CT concepts learned by students in a similarenvironment5.

Lab-driven learning has been considered to be the mosteffective pedagogy for teaching and learning in electrical engineering [17]. However, if the labactivities are not authentic, too large to handle, or not well-aligned to what we expect ourstudents to learn about ROS, students will still not be able to master ROS meaningfully. Themeaningful mastery of a technology is beyond learning about the technology’s functionsrepresented in the tool bars or menus, or even beyond doing a few random exercises through trialand error. To make meaningful mastery happen, we call for the adaptation of TPACK, atheoretical framework regarding
