Most often theselaboratory exercises include both simulations involving modeling software and hands-onprojects.It is often impractical to perform hands-on experiments with all different newly developedtechnologies due to lack of resources in university environment. Therefore, it is attractive to usevirtualization environment (modeling software) to perform different laboratory activities. Inmobile and wireless network engineering courses, instructors mostly focus on lower protocollayers such as physical, MAC (Medium Access Control) and network (routing) layers.

WorldHealth Organization, drowning has been overlooked by governments and research bodies as apublic health issue [4]. One in five drowning victims is a child under fourteen [5]. Over 50% ofAmericans do not know how to swim and 61% of American children cannot swim [6, 7].Improving and further integrating swimming safety with education is thus of vital importance.With the rising popularity of water resistant smartwatches, we hope to explore ways to improveswimming techniques and reduce the impact of poor swimming skills on drowning.Water competency is difficult to define, and its very definition has changed in recent years. Thismeans that creating a more unified curriculum for swimming education, particularly in children,has long been a complex

This paper focuses onplanning, implementing, and assessing the personality type demographics of undergraduate students indifferent majors. This must be accomplished in the context of logistics of time, access, and feedback tosuch studies. The paper also gives specific examples of personality type demographic assessment plandevelopment, implementation, and outcomes from courses in four different programs in three differentcolleges. Teaching/Learning ideas that can better adapt to the personality type demographics are alsoaddressed.INTRODUCTIONIn quality education, assessment is perhaps the next most important aspect that follows teaching- learningin the classroom.

level laboratory courseAbstract Communication skills is always on the top of list of the largest gaps between the careerreadiness of new college graduates and employer rated importance across all disciplinaries ofhigher education including engineering. Unfortunately, many students enter engineering programswith the wrong notion that engineering profession requires much math and science but littleliteracy. On the other hand, few engineering programs can afford a separate course dedicated totechnical writing within the already tight credit budget. The content of the lab reports is generally more directly controlled by engineering facultyteaching the course. Lab reports thus serve as a good tool to sharpen writing skills. Practically

a library of eigenfunctions, the assemblage constituting the solutions to explicitproblems would be a powerful enabler for undergraduate engineering training: 1. It would allow engineering analysis/design to proceed efficiently without being sidetracked by concerns of whether the solution of the resulting equations lies beyond the ability of the analyst; 2. It would cut across many engineering disciplines; 3. It could be used to give a perspective on the separation-of-variables technique itself, by enabling “reverse-engineering” of the explicit solution formulas.In fact it would also be a research tool that the engineer could continue to use in his professionalcareer.
