Developing solar tracking systems is an excellent project for students to develop,expand, and deepen their engineering skills while working on a project with real-worldsignificance. This study demonstrates a low-cost, dual-axis solar tracker using an Arduino, 3Dprinted components, mathematical modeling, coding, and readily available electrical parts,including light-dependent resistors, a servo motor, and a stepper motor.We report on a 15-month-long learning journey: participation in the Engineering SummerAcademy at Penn (ESAP) Nanotechnology course for 3 weeks

Methods & ResultsTo date, we have used FASTOP to observe over 90 individual students in 44 class sessions of 10sections taught by 6 instructors of 3 courses at 2 institutions. Near the start of each term, studentsin each section were shown a short video describing the study and invited to complete aninformed consent form. A colleague collected the forms (so the instructor did not know whichstudents consented), used the list of consenting students and the instructorâs team assignments toselect the teams to be observed, and gave the observer photos of those teams or students. At threepoints during the term (early, middle, late) the observer observed two class sessions (one POGIL,one non-POGIL).In
complex challenges in their professional context that requireboth technical and social competencies and include providing clean water, the ethics ofdeveloping AI, engineering better delivery of medication, and preventing nuclear terror [1]. Toeffectively solve these complex problems, engineers have to rigorously and adeptly applytechnical skills and soft skills such as communication, collaboration, and empathy [2]. Soft skillsare widely recognized as having increasing importance for employment, career success, andprofessional and personal satisfaction in modern engineering workplaces [3].Empathy is a critical soft skill, focused on building emotional intelligence [2], [4], [5], [6], andhas many definitions in the literature [7].

a Pre-college STEM Outreach Program over Time (Evaluation)Introduction A skilled STEM workforce is critical to maintaining the competitiveness of the U.S. intodayâs global economy. STEM job opportunities have grown faster than non-STEMcounterparts since 2010, and employment in many STEM occupations is projected to grow [1].Recently, many pre-college programs have been developed and implemented to increase highschool studentsâ interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Plentifulprior studies documented the positive impacts of such outreach efforts [2], [3], [4], [5], and [6],but how studentsâ evaluations change during the program remained an unanswered question.This

Studentsjoin IRE from community colleges around the United States after completing their first two yearsof lower division engineering requirements. They then join on campus at Minnesota StateUniversity, Mankato, for one intensive semester, called Bell Academy, developing technical,professional, and design skills before starting paid engineering co-op

interests After the joint training begins, the students will directly enter the enterprises as interns in thetheir joint training enterprises, and they will be managed according to the internship system, suchas daily attendance, and receive the intern allowance. The difference between students and internsis the intensity of training, and the joint training has higher requirements for studentsâ output. Forexample, the required deliverables of a jointly training project are: 1. Literature review of traffic emission calculation theory; 2. Emission calculation algorithm model; 3. Research report on vehicle emission and carbon emission from traffic mobile sources. Students can choose projects with different requirements

Inaddition, at many VHHE HSIs, a significant percentage of lower division courses are taught bypart-time adjuncts or other non-tenure line faculty with less academic training and less access tofaculty development. A recent report from the National Academies [4] recommends sevenpractices and strategies that are important for minority-serving institutions, to ensure they are notjust minority-enrolling.

Finally, the capstone communication course includes instruction related to medical teamcommunication, patient handoffs, professional identity management, and another advancedsimulated client interaction.Developing and implementing this scaffolded communication curriculum requires collaborationand support from clinical faculty members and technical staff who help deliver the instruction,develop the clinical cases that are used during simulations, and provide coaching and feedbackduring simulated client communication labs. So, in addition to communication instructiontargeting students, communication training is also provided in the form of seminars and âlunchand learnâ sessions for faculty, technical staff, and house

By combining digital resources with hands-on activities, the curriculum promotedteamwork as students collaborated to brainstorm ideas, build prototypes, and iterate throughtesting and redesigns.
