bilinearly interpolating vectors usingthe Runge-Kutta fourth order method.Figure 2. Three visual forms of field-line representation: line, tube, and animated arrow.Line Drawing. Figure 2 shows an example streamline with all three forms of visualrepresentation we provide for field-lines: line, tube, and animated arrow. The first two formsshow the entire streamline statically, while the last one dynamically conveys a vector direction aswell as its magnitude along the streamline in an animated fashion. We utilize OpenGL functionsfor all the drawing. (a) (b)Figure 3. (a) 2D texture for tube drawing where the blue dashed line indicates a segment of thefield-line.

teaching tool to teach concepts inductively, it results in aninductive teaching scenario; when students interact with the tool and use it as a learning tool tolearn concepts inductively, it results in an inductive learning scenario. The purpose of this studyis to evaluate the effectiveness of the VR simulation when used in inductive teaching vs.inductive learning scenarios.Choice of concepts and inductive approachThis study required the development of a VR simulation that (a) aided inductive learning of fluidmechanics concepts and (b) was capable of being used as a teaching tool (in an inductiveteaching scenario) as well as a learning tool (in an inductive learning scenario). Hence the fluidmechanics concepts to be covered and the inductive

a step angle 7.5°, what is the digital input rate required to produce arotation of 10 rev/sec?Solution: The motor has 360°/7.5° = 48 steps/rev. Rotation of 10 rev/s requires 480 steps/sec.2. The second sample question examined understanding the principles of light sensor operationand, from physics, how light intensity from a point source falls off as a function of distance.This behavior of light is important because most fire-fighting robots depend on light sensors todetect a flame, and many use reflectance sensors to determine distance to arena walls and otherobstacles.Q2: The light intensity from the source O measured in points A and B equalsIA = 4 W/m2, IB = 9 W/m2. The distance |AB|= 0.4 m . A B

It also allows for quick anonymous feedback of thestudent reflections, as shown on the screenshot in Appendix C. The tool has a set of commonprompts for an instructor to use, but also gives instructors the ability to create their own prompts.Research in ProgressThe reflection tool can be used for instruction since it provides the instructor access to students’perspectives on how they make sense of their role of being an LA and the challenges they face.For example, it provides formative information where

) illustrates the setting of our proposed Collaborative Project Based Learning (CPBL)model. Students are divided into groups to work on assigned projects in class, e.g. the design of aregister file in Computer Logic Design class (EE347), as shown in Figure 1(b). Usually, acollaborative effort is required to complete the project. Therefore, the students need to interactwith each other within the group. It has been shown that a high degree of interaction amongpeers can make students more engaged in the learning process. In addition, the instructor willinteract with every group to provide guidance in the design process, answer students’ questions,and address any observed problems. The design results or problem solutions of each group canbe easily

During the semester,there were 6 home assignments that totaled 30% of the course grade, two midtermexams, two quizzes which were mix of multiple choice, short answer, and essayquestions (30% weight for two midterms, and 20% for both quizzes), and the finalexam (20% of course grade), which was also a mixture of questions similar to themidterm exams.Research questions: A. Is there a correlation between the students’ demographics and their performance? B. How did the students perform in distance learning and F2F sections? Is there a significant difference in the outcome (course grade)?4. Analysis and ResultsA. Demographics correlation with course gradeThe data used to determine whether there is a correlation between

The Atmega328microcontroller allows the user to add multiple sensors and actuators to the robot. The robot alsohouses a Raspberry Pi, which acquires commands from the user via a network connection andsends serial commands to the on-board Arduino. See Figure 4(b) for the fully assembled leggedrobot. Once the server running on the Raspberry Pi receives the user’s C-code, it commands theArduino via UART serial communication protocol. Upon receiving serial messages relating tothe robot motion, the Arduino board executes the motion sequence to appropriately control theservo
