The research waspresented by the students during a poster session held on the last day of the course.Participants spent ten days on campus as a part of the year 2 summer experience. Students exploreddrone technology research and continued to engage in extended learning opportunities. Thepreliminary knowledge of drones gained in the course allowed students to delve deeper into dronetechnology research, including exploration of the current state of the technology, applications ofthe technology and the impact of drones on our society. Student teams examined the effect ofcomponent mass on the battery life of drones. Each team created a PowerPoint presentationhighlighting their findings at the end of

followedin calculus as well as in the students’ other academic arenas. [6]On the order of 500 institutions nationwide are currently engaged with some form ofcurricular learning community. While the actual designs vary a great deal, these programs all re-form the curricular structures to make explicit linkages among courses, and to intentionally build communities of students and teachers. Even more importantly there is a range in what we would refer to as teaching teams. Joining faculty members on teaching teams are librarians, computer center staff, advisors, residence life professionals, and quite frequently students as peer facilitators in the communities. So learning communities are not merely

Technology to Actively Engage Students in the Learning ProcessAbstractOnce every decade or so, a disruptive technology appears that has the potential to revolutionizeelectrical and computer engineering (ECE) education. This paper considers the impact of one ofthe most recent examples: a USB-powered instrument called Analog Discovery that is cheapenough for students to own personally. Students are no longer bound by the constraints of fixedspace, equipment, and schedules in their institution to conduct experiments. Instructionalmaterials are posted for free and advice is provided by early adopters, working engineers andhobbyists in forums on the internet to simplify the adoption of this pedagogical approach.

As Tinto suggested,involvement and integration within the academic life of college significantly enhance thelikelihood of student persistence [7]. He elucidated that in order to increase student retention infirst-year students, there is a need to incorporate early social and academic communities andgroups. His emphasis on early integration underlines the critical role of social engagement,particularly in the formative first year. Recognizing the significance of social engagement forfirst-year students, it becomes imperative to delve deeper into understanding the dynamics of thisengagement and its

The theory was that graphicrepresentations of content such as schematic symbols, drawings, pictures, programmingicons, flow charts, mathematic equations and hands on demonstrations were cross-cultural means of communicating and should be incorporated as much as possible.Finally, the lesson plans and other curricular materials were translated into Spanish bythose student teachers with Spanish fluency.

As they had receivedmost or all of their midterm grades when the surveys were conducted, it was expected that astudent’s midterm performance could have an impact on their perceptions of the fall break. Theresults below discuss in detail their responses of time spent during the break. From theinterviews, it is possible to gain a richer picture of how students who remained on campusperceived the break, and what impact it had on their connectivity with their peers and the widercampus community. The term “on campus”, was used rather than “in Waterloo” in an attempt todistinguish between students who remained engaged with the university from those whose homewas in Waterloo
