Students identified importantmechanical properties such as yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, and fracture stress fromtheir results. The engineering stress-strain curve of each test was plotted from the results, makingYoung’s modulus another property to consider.

Results and DiscussionIn terms of this study NECQ and ECQ are computer based multiple-choice quizzes that often requirenumerical calculations and typically are completed in 5-10 minutes. 3.1 Extra credit quizzesIn an effort to enhance student in-class engagement, 53 graded in-class pop quizzes, were introduced intoan introductory engineering mechanics class during the 2017 spring semester. These quizzes were acombination of non-extra credit quizzes (NECQ) and extra credit quizzes ECQ. Several studentsexpressed frustration with the NECQ in terms perceived unfairness and the resulting stress pop quizzescaused them. Based on this input, during the last eight weeks of the semester quizzes were

Between 2008 and 2010, less than 52% of students whostarted the program remained after their first year. (B.

Little research has beenreported focused on improving engineering technology student retention.The purpose of the study is to examine the differences that exist between first year engineeringtechnology majors who continue in the major and those who leave or are dismissed prior to thebeginning of the second year.

Assessment and EvaluationThe assessment and evaluation of students in these courses were done by an external evaluator face-to-face interview and by an online survey. The instructors for these courses were also evaluated by theexternal evaluator for their experiences with active learning.

students’ performance data from theEWS and their interaction with the E2Coach system to answer the following researchquestions: RQ1) (a) Which instructional technologies, if any, help to predict the likelihood of students entering explore or engage classifications? (b) Which instructional technologies, if any, help to predict the likelihood of students exiting explore or engage classifications? RQ2) Does the timing of students’ use of these technologies precede, coincide with, or lag their experience of academic difficulty? In other words, do students use these tools throughout the duration of the semester, or only when they experience academic difficulty

Instruments.The students are asked to control a servo, and the following specifications are given: PWM withfrequency of 50 Hz (20 ms) and a duty cycle from 5% (1 ms) to 10% (2 ms). These are somepossible steps that students could follow to accomplish the task as can be observed in Figure 2. a) The student opens Grace and takes a look at the microcontroller architecture. b) The student observes that the requirements call for time generation. There is a timer denominated Timer0_A2; he or she double clicks on the time block to open it and get the timer overview window. Here it can be observed that it has a PWM mode, and instructions for configuration appear. c) The student now follows the instructions and decides to connect
