The process starts with noticing and naming the problem,continues to analyzing the problem, and finishes with forming new beliefs in order to solve theproblem. Reflective

This paper will introducevarious entrepreneurial mindset (EM) techniques to engage students that could be adapted to anyengineering course. All the techniques have suggestions for adapting to a fully online course aswell as working for an in-person or hybrid class. The first activity presented will be name signswith badges that will promote (1) setting, evaluating, and achieving goals, (2) self-reflection, (3)considering a problem from multiple viewpoints, and (4

Since developing a computer program to instruct arobot provides an immediate feedback as whether the program has accomplished its job, itengages students in both learning and reflection processes.This paper presents the application of an affordable programmable robot in three computerprogramming classes; namely, Computer Science and Information Systems: An Overview (CS0),Programming I (CS1), and Programming II (CS2).

We decided that it was mostimportant to have motivated and engaging faculty members for the course; on the other hand, webelieved that every faculty member can relate their area of expertise to the Cyber World. Hence,after forming our instructor-team, we sat down to find overlaps between their areas of expertiseand cyber issues. This resulted in a lecture series of 8 topics developed and delivered by facultyfrom four colleges: the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Business, the TagliatelaCollege of Engineering, and the Henry C.

Flood attacks happen when a system receives too much traffic forthe server to buffer, causing them to slow down to the point of stopping.Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks occur when multiple devices are leveraged into abotnet and used to target a single system. Flooding attack methods are used in DDoS strikes toincrease the volume of traffic aimed at the target. DDoS attacks can also be reflected andamplified to further increase the volume of traffic generated.Generally speaking, reflected DDoS attacks are any attack where the attacker spoofs the sourceIP address to be the address of the intended target and amplified attacks are any attack where theoriginal attack is enhanced by use of another protocol, redirection, or spoofed

The contrast of the ACM literature and the ASEEliterature is that software projects tend to be more focused on design and verification, where theengineering papers tend to have more focus on process such as funding and project launch. Inboth the ACM and ASEE literature review it was most common for Capstone experiences tospan two semesters with some literature suggesting that going to a two-semester program wouldbe beneficial [11].In the literature, the following common question groups were observed, and informed theanalysis and narrative of the case studies in this work: • Project format: How are projects assigned?

In addition to renaming the columns, a few basic calculationshave been made. This includes changing the time from AM/PM to military formats. The timedurations have been calculated. This requires some correction for academic practices such as 50minutes = 1 hour and a 3-hour laboratory might be 2 hours and 45 minutes.

Another proposal is for teachers to simply reflect on their experience in the class andidentify areas for improvement [33]. Zahraee et al. adds more structure to this approach byasking faculty members to set their own goals and then reflect on their performance meetingthose goals over the last year [6].Three more situation-specific professional development aspects of faculty CI are also addressed:accreditation, quality management, and curriculum design [24].
