requirements.Effective policies and methods to recycle solar generation equipment and circular economy includethe following: - Both Federal and State governments should take steps now to address this issue. This can include the development of innovative technologies for effective recycling of this new and emerging industry. A special branch within EPA could be set up to manage this solar equipment recycling and prevent future dump sites that may become big risks for ground water and environment. - Aluminum metal refining takes more energy than steel, manufacturers of solar panels should be designing standard size panels and for reuse, thus reducing energy consumption for the solar equipment. They also should be

influence assessment methods and design of course materialsboth positively and negatively [8], [14]. On the positive side, some faculty have successfullyused it to create assessments or grade student work; on the negative side, it has the potential topresent challenges to academic integrity if proper precautions are not taken [15]. Also, thesetools are relatively new, and students that embrace them may have additional opportunities in thefuture as long as they also learn the key learning objectives in their courses.In this paper, we present a mixed method case study that investigates whether, how, and why astudent would choose to utilize ChatGPT in a foundational first year engineering course whenpresented with unfettered access to AI tools. The
. For instance, inthe realm of social media, data science has brought about a paradigm shift in the understandingof communication. It has moved beyond analyzing communication as signs or discourse and nowencompasses the collection, storage, and processing of communication data. This expansion inperspective has opened up new possibilities for studying and leveraging social media platformsin various domains. For example, at the earlier stage of social media, Langlois et al. proposed anontological shift, suggesting that with the help of data science, “we must expand from the studyof communication as signs or discourse to include the study of communication as data collection,storage, and processing [5, p. 2].” Consequently, these new technologies
