To address thisdeficiency, we have developed eleven interactive simulation modules (ISMs) in MATLABwhich depict the motion of the system under the aforementioned responses and allow the studentto control many of the parameters of vibration to see the effect of each of them on the

These competencies are (1) adapting socially, (2) demonstrating creativity, (3) evendisposition, (4) respecting beliefs, (5) instilling trust, and (6) navigating ambiguity. Internationalleadership managing international assignments seldom fail because of a lack of technical orprofessional competence but rather fail to build cultural awareness necessary for understandingdifferent cultures. Caligiuri and Tarique [15] identified lack of understanding of other cultures asa factor affecting the ability of leaders to lead across cultures and transfer foreign leadershipknowledge easily.

commended the approach, but they have demonstrated its effectiveness.The rational for this this work stems from observations that the current generation of studentslearn differently: less textbook-reliance, and more dependence on web-based explanations, suchas short videos, animations, and demonstrations. When it comes to concept comprehension,students repeatedly miss the Aha! moment, and ask for more hands-on, experiential, visual,intuitive, fun (e.g., game-based), and tech-based, web-based information.This is not new. For example, Tyler DeWitt [1] recognized this problem and taught isotopes tohigh school students using analogy to similar cars with minor changes to illustrate that isotopesare basically the same atom, i.e., have the same number of

This paper reports preliminary analysis ofthat data to understand trends in major selection and mathematics preparation within thestate.IntroductionNational data indicate that initial mathematics course placement in college is a strong predictor ofpersistence to degree in engineering[1, 2, 3, 4], with students placed in calculus persisting atnearly twice the rate of those placed below calculus [3]. Underrepresented minority, low-income,and first-generation students are less likely to take precalculus or calculus in high school [4, 5, 6],and they subsequently enter two-year or four-year programs with fewer mathematics and

The students were also asked to analyze the economicaland societal impact of their design based on the selection of three materials for their pipelinesystems.Preliminary assessment results support the continued use of these PBL and the integration ofentrepreneurial mindset learning content.

Patient compliance excerpts: Despite pills generally being preferred to other routes of delivery for ease of administration, statin adherence and compliance is still a concerning issue (50% or more of patients discontinue statins within 1 year of treatment initiation). One factor that can improve this is alleviating adverse side effects to encourage patients to start and continue it, and for physicians to prescribe it - Cardiovascular delivery Causes for compliance issues fall into two major categories: physical and nonphysical motivation. In terms of physical motivation

The lab activities are mainly based on the technical manual supplied by thehydraulic trainer manufacturer (Vickers which is now part of Eaton [1]). Students will buildvarious circuits and use several components such as cylinders hydraulic motors, sequence valve,pressure reducing valve, etc. All of hydraulic lab activities include measurement and in addition,students are to draw a schematic of the circuit they have worked on. This helps them relate thecomponents to hydraulic symbols. The trainers also include ANSI symbols shown by eachcomponent which matches the ones used in lab activities

The rockets must be designed to not exceed the maximum-allowablealtitude for the launch site as specified by the FAA. Launches are done under the auspices of the NationalAssociation of Rocketry (NAR). For approximately the first 2/3 of the semester, physics of trajectory,stability analysis and construction methods are covered via lectures. In the second 1/3, shop time isscheduled for construction. Generally, launches are conducted the following semester when the field isavailable.Course DescriptionThe course meets once a week for 50 minutes
