about 20minutes), the instructor compiled all of the assessment sheets. After grading of the project reports,a final, detailed feedback form was provided to each team during finals week which summarizedthe assessment of their project. It also included the verbatim written assessments provided by thestudent peers and faculty.While the faculty and peer assessments (Groups 1 and 3) provided an evaluation on whether theproject demonstration met the objectives, the senior-class student assessment (Group 2) wasdifferent. This sheet is provided in Appendix B and had questions which focused on: • Whether those senior students would have learned the concept better if they had access to this DEMO when taking the course the previous year

A Modern but Simple Approach to Teaching Friction Sarosh Patel, Manan Joshi and Lawrence Hmurcik Department of Computer Science & Engineering University of Bridgeport {saroshp, mjoshi, hmurick}@bridgeport.eduAbstract- We present an experiment for measuring friction, using interleaved sheets of paper. Ourresults support the modern theory that friction is dependent on surface contact area (A). Also, ourresults support the classical theory of friction being proportional to the normal force (N), but this isonly true over a limited range of N, where the “effective” area of contact increases in a mannerproportional to N.

Women, for instance, are more likely to focuson addressing societal needs, particularly in areas such as healthcare and caregivingtechnologies, which men may overlook (Koning et al., 2021). However, systemic barriers, suchas the lack of women receiving patents over their male-counterparts, continue to limit women’sparticipation in innovation, depriving society of their unique contributions and hindering thedevelopment of more inclusive solutions (Revankar, 2022; Wang et al., 2020).B.

Specifically, we provide a procedure based on (a) identifying andcoding implications for action sentences within a journal article, and (b) analyzing the journalarticle based on the sentence-level coding. Of note, this procedure was developed over a two-year period, which involved several iterations: a submitted AERA paper, multiple on-campuspresentations, a portion of a
