Portfolios are typically associated withartists and photographers who use them to showcase their work in order to generate business.English students may maintain an educational portfolio of their writings for their classes. Educational portfolios are useful tools for learning. They may be used for bothsummative and formative activities within the classroom. Instructors may require students tocollect their work over the semester and turn it in at the end for a grade. With formativeportfolios, students

deprived of the opportunity to take background courses such as 2D-signal processing,computer communications, radiography, and sensors and instrumentation. Compare to traditionalelectrical engineering students, the lack of hands-on lab experience becomes more apparentwhen students are working on capstone senior projects.One strategy we used to solve this issue was to include a mixed capstone project groupcomprising of computer, electronic, and biomedical engineering students. This strategy workedfor few groups but the success rate was less than thirty five percent due to the students’ lack ofpreparation and disadvantage of knowledge compared to traditional electrical engineeringstudents.To rectify this situation we proposed and developed this
and was great review. - I enjoy the team quizzes. I do like that we get to pick our own groups. I did enjoy doing the team quiz more than taking an actually mid term as it's less stressful and also it can be a little fun depending on who the team members are. It does help a little with the team work as one of us is like the leader and kinda assign each member a task they would like to do. I learn more with the Team Quiz then with a Midterm test. ll i f l h h i i b l l f b ildiOverall, both the quantitative and qualitative results show the following: - Students feel that the team quiz activity helped their learning. - Students found the team-quiz exercise to be less

Computational Thinking course for non-majors. An initialquantitative evaluation of the visualizations raised questions about their long-term effectivenessand ease of use. This study represents a qualitative study done to gain deeper insight into theexperiences of students. The results of this study demonstrated students were engaging withcourse materials in unexpected ways but frequently referred back to the visualizations.Additionally, students had an approach to understanding the visualizations that was both helpfuland problematic. These findings help to inform visualization and curriculum designers aboutstudent attitudes and strategies in using course materials.1 IntroductionDue to the abstract nature of Computer Science it is not uncommon for

One class with 48 students wasassigned to control group, i.e. B (Book) and the other group with 50 students to experimentalgroup, i.e. E (E-book). In the experiment, group B students used a traditional paper-basedtextbook in English as instructional material. Students in group E learned by using the e-booksystem. Content of textbook was the same for two groups and yet the same teacher instructedfor both groups. The e-book system allowed experimental students to annotate learningcontent, it provided explanation of professional terms, instant translation (e.g

To the right of the critical point, a value of x = 1.0 is used (saturated vapor); to the left of the critical point, a value of x = 0 is employed (saturated liquid). Note that the cells associated with the critical point are highlighted in blue. When plotted versus the entropy values, this column produces the so-called “vapor dome.” • Column C: quality is the second independent property here, as specified in the gold “quality” cell.
