errors andpreventing the system from coming online. Additionally, occasional sensor readings wereerroneous due to hiccups in the communication between the components. These did not causeissues during startup or with the performance of the autonomy but did cause concern for thestudents when the readouts did not show reasonable readings.The students felt the smartphone interface worked well, with one exception. The students wererequired to run a few short terminal commands to start the applications on the Pi, which thestudents felt uncomfortable with. This also led to students occasionally starting components inthe wrong order, creating the communication errors. Future revisions will remove thisrequirement.One other major issue was the accuracy of

They are challenged to implement this newinformation in their research plans that were made up initially, and sharing their new insights with theirfellow students during research meetings. The first research meeting occurs on the 3rd or the 4th dayafter field trips. The entire group including students, faculty mentors, and program coordinators as wellas available Dutch experts attend this meeting and students

courses to update and keep up with new technologies. The energy security, economicand environmental issues placed renewable energy systems on governmental, academia andindustry agendas. As a consequence the demand for courses on RES in engineering and scienceprograms has increased dramatically over the last three decades [4-9]. Moreover, rapidtechnological advances require the engineers working in these areas to improve their knowledgein order to match these growing requirements, constituting a real challenge for educationalinstitutions [4, 9‐12]. New teaching approaches and life-long learning become even moreimportant today. The technological progress is faster than ever and the “life-time” of theeducation for a graduate is becoming shorter and

these rankthe laboratory component’s ability to contribute to the direct assessment of multiple studentoutcomes. Consistent with this, many programs seek ways to introduce such activities into theirprograms of study. As strong as these motivations are, programs may encounter the followingobstacles to creating additional laboratory components for a program of study: 1) Space constraints 2) Faculty member time constraints 3) Student scheduling constraints 4) Financial constraints on the purchase of laboratory equipmentEven if these constraints are satisfied partially or completely, there is still an opportunity costassociated with each of these constraints; a program that is able to re-purpose or build new spacefor a laboratory

This includes consulting on K-12 engineering curriculum development for the State of Michigan. In 2004 Mr. Oppliger was awarded the Distinguished Faculty Award for Service honoring this outreach work. He has presented papers at several national conferences on engineering education. Before coming to Michigan Tech, Mr. Oppliger taught math and science at the secondary level for 11 years. Before that, he worked for 5 years as a project engineer in the marine construction industry.Prof. Valorie Troesch, Michigan Technological UniversityJean Kampe, Michigan

oftenlacking in many engineering courses, using traditional teaching approaches. Furthermore, thedesign experience motivates student learning and develops skills required in industry.The development and implementation of a project solar energy harvesting in our senior projectdesign course is described here. The project is used to allow students to apply fundamentalengineering concepts as well as principles of engineering design. The societal impact of theproject, Solar Energy Scavenging, also makes students more aware of what engineering can do toaddress current energy issues worldwide. Presently we are modifying the content of the projectto address the main concern that many students expressed in their reflection papers, i.e. the levelof complexity

These days there is an increasing interest toharvest energy at a much smaller scale, for applications such as the ones found in manyembedded systems the power requirements are often small (less than 100 mW). Today,sustaining the power requirement for autonomous wireless and portable devices is an importantresearch and technical issue. However, this progress has not been able to keep up with thedevelopment of micro-processors, memory storage, and wireless technology applications. 2.
