Zhuang and Sudhakar developed anundergraduate machine vision laboratory under the sponsorship from National ScienceFoundation, Cognex Corporation, and Florida Atlantic University1. This laboratory supporteda 3-credit senior-level machine vision course called, Introduction to Machine Vision. Most ofthe laboratory experiments were design-oriented and open-ended. A more recent studyproposed a comprehensive program to introduce vision technologies to manufacturing andmechanical engineering technology students at Oregon Institute of Technology2.

rigors of college life.This paper describes an “Academic Resolution Exercise” instituted in the Freshman EngineeringTechnology seminar. It is specifically designed to teach freshmen how to establish, monitor andaccomplish academic goals essential for them to successfully transition to the significantacademic demands of a higher education institution. Ultimately, the results of this exerciseenhance the probability of students succeeding academically in their critical first year. Theirsuccess, in turn, assists the university’s student retention rate.IntroductionFreshmen are often ill prepared for the scholastic demands of an engineering or engineeringtechnology program. They frequently learn the hard way that the study habits and techniquesused

Moreover,can they design structural components using CMCs? The answers to the above questions are Page 2.98.2probably not affirmative at most educational institutions. 2 In the CRCD program, the
Management in ClassTime management in class is a constant area of improvement for me. I tend to go into moredetail on topics that spark my interest. For this reason, I had to learn to prepare for class withtime management in mind. As the semester progressed, I became better at managing my time inthe classroom for reinforced concrete design, but this is still something I can continue toimprove. While teaching in the freshman engineering program, multiple sections were requiredto teach the same material. Therefore, I had to make sure I stayed on a schedule to finish whatwas required for that day. Often times, the instructors were supplied with a suggested timeallotment for each item on an agenda for that day. However, when I included

ofindustrial automation provides a helpful perspective to understand better the different componentsand subsystems integrated into OT/ICS systems. While the model is becoming controversial with theadvent of emerging technologies and different connectivity architectures, it remains effective from aprocess perspective7. Notable cybersecurity standards for OT/ICS, such as ISA/IEC 62443 (formerlyknown as ISA99), acknowledge the Purdue model in the proposed controls and capabilities7.Security challenges of PLCs, and many other OT technologies, can be described through thefollowing, PLCs: (1) are typically very rugged, enabling extremely long life cycles of legacytechnology; (2) are designed to be maintained and programmed by a wide array of engineers

This model works well for completing school assignments simply because itis a start-forward method and can be completed in the short time of a semester. The IterativeDevelopment model is a pattern for developing a project using an iterative method. Everyiteration has its own requirements of planning, definition of requirements, analysis and design,implementation, deployment, and evaluation. Each iteration results in an executable release of Page 10.819.1the program or project. The Iterative Development model

While most of the knowledge indicated above is transmitted to engineering students in their lecture courses, the ability to implement the DSP techniques in dedicated processors (DSPs) for real-time performance is a skill that can only be developed by practice.
