Mentoring Network has grown and a variety of academic andpersonal schedules become harder to accommodate. This is one reason for limiting the target sizeof an annual cohort.The orientation typically takes place at a location central to the original ADVANCE institutionsand runs from approximately 9 am to 3 pm on a Saturday in August. The event is facilitatedjointly by members of the Executive Committee and includes structured events as well asbreakfast and lunch during which women are encouraged to mingle with the larger network.The structured events include: 1) a brief session introducing the literature on the benefits of mentoring; 2) a quick review of the requirements of the program, culminating with a signing of the Memorandum of

The implications of this study are to establish student makerspacerecommendations in order to create more inclusive and welcoming environments in makerspacesand other engineering spaces.IntroductionMakerspaces are generally thought of as accessible spaces with the tools that makers need to build,tinker, and collaborate with others [1]. These spaces have become quite popular in conjunctionwith engineering programs at academic institutions through recent years [2]. Due to theirpopularity, engineering education researchers have sought to understand best practices and culturalnorms for these spaces, the effects of

from these recommendations.IntroductionStatistics has been called “the art and science of collecting and analyzing data”, Bisgaard [1]. So,naturally a one-semester calculus-based course in Engineering Statistics is taught in almost allengineering colleges, and is “viewed as a „tools‟ course versus those focused on engineeringconcepts and methods”, Wilson [2], required in some B.S. programs, such as industrial and civilengineering; an elective in most others. Including such a course in a degree program isresponsive to several ABET EAC general criteria, including those that concern problem-solving,application of mathematics, experimentation and data analysis, and communication of results.Standard topics in a one-semester course are

instructors as a tangible way to include sustainability in their engineering and technologycourses.SustainabilitySustainability is a term that has more than one meaning. According to the US EnvironmentalProtection Agency [1], sustainability is based on the principle that “Everything that we need forour survival and well-being depends, either directly or indirectly, on our natural environment. Topursue sustainability is to create and maintain the conditions under which humans and nature canexist in productive harmony to support present and future generations”. In the European Union,the concept of ‘green growth’ is one that “…entails developing integrated policies that promote asustainable environmental framework” [2]. The term sustainable is also used

At The Citadel, writing and verbal briefings are typicallyassessed in General Education courses that are outside of students’ interest areas, and thisrequirement continues to evolve [16]. To bridge the gap between developing communicationskills and technical content, engineering students and certain science and math majors must nowtake a TWC course as part of the general education curriculum. Development of this TWCcourse was principally motivated by the needs of the School of Engineering with regard toindustry expectations and professional development [17], and the course contents includewritten, verbal, and visual forms of communication as well as professional

Theclass was success but only because the students were mature and highly motivated and theinstructors (a team of two were assigned to the class) were both skilled and dedicated. Studentscreated ad hoc study groups at the workplace that met after work shifts to help cope with thepace of the material presentation. Also, at least one of the instructors held office hours at thework site to help the students.The gap closure course offering and enrollments are shown in Table 1.

as words containing technical jargon that often convey a principle ordescribe a method in a catchy manner devised to attract attention. As the name suggests,these are words that are supposed to generate a “buzz,” and hence carry importance andweight during a relatively short period of time. Buzzwords are hence often called fashionwords, and sometimes describing a term as a “buzzword” implies that the term is being Page 22.1587.2used to impress listeners and that the user has little understanding of its actual meaning.However, this viewpoint is not universally accepted, since there are many who usebuzzwords regularly and do not believe that use of

Besides skeleton tracking, a virtually unlimited number of possible applications can berealized through direct computing using the 3D point cloud generated by the Kinect sensor.Examples include 3D object scanning and surface reconstruction [11], hand-gesture recognition[12], indoor mapping [13], etc. The application introduced in this paper is but one example ofmanipulating 3D point clouds.The development of so many applications using Kinect in such as short time is possible because ofits outstanding technical features.

According to the National Center for Education Statistics, the percentage ofPh.D.’s awarded in computing was 23% for women, and 11% for racial/ethnic minorities [9]. Also,the National Science Foundation (NSF) reported that minorities earned 7.8% of master’s and 5%of Ph.D. computing degrees in 2016 [2].Since graduate degrees are often required to teach at the faculty level, a shortage of graduatestudents can be particularly problematic in training future generations.
