As with the schematics andcode, the printed-circuit board files will be made available on the project website12 where theiruse and modification by all who are interested will be emphasized. By using two ATmega128’s,the number of devices has been kept small which in turn will keep costs reasonable.As Koios I is meant to be a viable replacement of the Handy Board in our curriculum, it willeventually be used in the introduction to ECE course. This will allow for the easy design andimplementation of robots and simple embedded systems. To accommodate the probable lack ofprogramming experience by freshmen, somewhat canned routines will have to be written until auser-friendly

This paper will provide another case study for flipped classroom that othereducators can benefit from. Both positive experience and lessons learned from this effort will beincluded in the presentation.IntroductionIn the traditional learning environment, lectures are delivered by instructors followed byhomework assignments and laboratory exercises to reinforce student learning. In this traditionalteaching method, the instructor is the center of the learning process. The knowledge is deliveredto students.

Traditional classroom teaching was offered by four faculty (i.e., three fromCSU and on from OSU) to illustrate the causes, impacts, monitoring, and prediction of algalblooms from three related disciplinary areas. The learning was further incented by the outsideclassroom activities, such as lab experiments, software tutorials, and field work practice.Experiential learning and training were provided on the subjects of Geographical InformationSystem (GIS), Remote Sensing, water chemistry, and agricultural sciences for workshopparticipants to form comprehensive knowledge profiles of

It is important that engineering students learnthe detrimental effects of stress raisers such as notches, holes, and sharp corners in machinemembers. Such discontinuities can cause a large rise in stress above the nominal value. Thistopic is introduced in the strength of materials course in the design of a stepped shaft withkeyways subjected to bending, torsion, as well as axial loads. The nominal axial stress, thebending stress, and the shear stress due to torsion in the shaft are each multiplied by thecorresponding
