For example, note in Fig.2 that 1 point for timeliness and 2 points for completeness are allotted for the first draft. The TAgrader made final judgments when there was disagreement among reviewers. Seventy-one percentof students received full credit for the first draft; that number rose to 90% for review and rebuttalstages. The number of late, missing, or incomplete first drafts is partially a result of a lack ofaccountability for participation in the workshops.For the final paper, 86.5% of students met at least ‘B’ standard (80%). This was on par with thosefor the beam experiment report the previous year in which TAs provided a review of a single

Afterwards, there was a call out in the School of MechanicalEngineering at Univalle and 13 undergraduate students assembled a team to work in this shortterm project (project AVE - phase I, see Arango et al in 2019 [11]), which consisted ongenerating blueprints to make a composite material wing section as it is shown in fig. 4 for anundergraduate class taught by Dr. Sterkenburg at Purdue. a) b) Figure 4.

) where D = distance of object, T = time elapsed and V = velocity of ultrasonic burst. b. TILT SWITCH We implemented a tilt switch to our circuit so that when the glove is in the downward position (the user’shand is down), the ultrasonic sensors will be deactivated. This will prevent the glove from detecting theground when the user is not using the glove to locate objects in front of the individual. The tilt switch is namedaccordingly due to the metallic ball on the inside of its container that acts as a switch to either complete thecircuit (ON position) or not (OFF position), similar to a push button. These switches were once commonlymade with mercury that was used to complete the circuit if the switch was at a certain angle

in real time during the lab sessions, itbecame clear to me that in most cases the major deficiencies resided in post-lab work and in theirability to submit a coherent, well written final report. Trying to dissect the source and location ofthe deficiencies, I decided to keep track of the performance of the various lab classes with themetric of these parameters. The hope was to be able to characterize with some quantitativemeasures (a) the progress of the class, if any, within the same semester/lab and (b) the progressof the class along the sequence of the four lab courses described above.Accordingly, while all the reports were graded following the syllabus description, I also kept arecord for myself with the marks assigned in each one of the

-UpPreliminary calculations of the thermal lump system theory [1] were performed in order todetermine the appropriate size of the two lumped systems. The requirement as that they mustcool to room temperature from 100 oC in less than 20 minutes, and that they are made fromaluminum. Scrap aluminum pieces were available at the department’s machine shop. Thecooling is achieved by natural convection and some radiation in stagnant room air. Thecalculations led to the sizes of two lumped system designs: a) a cube with a side length of 10 mmand b) a cylinder of dimeter 10 mm and height 10 mm.

Thetreatment manual instead contained exercises that gave students significant leeway to teachthemselves how to use the oscilloscope.The difference between these manuals is most clearly illustrated by an example. Figures ​1​a and1​b show exercises from each manual designed to teach the same concept: how to scale theoscilloscope display.

The remaining 23 grades were A’s(92% of the course enrollment).The course instructors are hesitant to conclude that the high grades for the fall 2020 semester aredue solely to the new flexible course format. Students have indicated that the high grades mayalso be contributed, at least in part, to boredom. Many activities have been cancelled due to thepandemic, and

address students in terms that they easily recognize andcomprehend. For effective instruction to follow, educators should accommodate the needs of thelearner. Brown, B. suggested that authentic learning requires the learner to communicate detailedunderstanding of a problem or issue rather than memorize sets of isolated facts, and must resultin achievements that have relevance beyond the classroom [6].One of the hardest things to do in our profession is to motivate and inspire students to learn.There are numerous examples of methods used to motivate students [7]. These various strategiesinclude incorporating instructional behaviors, varying course structure, de-emphasizing grades,providing feedback, and emphasizing preparation, which provide many

Students were also asked toperform a PCB board layout that would be used to generate a physical prototype on which theywould then solder SMA connectors and use a VNA to verify its performance. This extension intophysical prototyping and measurement was intended to give students experience in using RFlaboratory equipment and enable them to correlate theoretical and experimental results.Student Learning

had been divided into seven sections of no more than 22 students each, with lab times des-ignated Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoon and evenings. Each and every section hada remote option, meaning there was no formal distinction between students taking the course re-motely vs. in person. In fact, as the semester started, it was clear that in-person students might needto switch to remote learning if required to quarantine or isolate due to exposure to the Covid-19. Atotal of 11 lab stations were set up including 7 in the Thermal Fluids Lab and 4 new stations in asecond room on the same floor. This allowed half of the students in a section to be in lab simultane-ously. Thus, the students were divided into A and B groups and put on an
