(also known as Short-circuiting or Early-exit), where a portion of a time-consuming calculation can beobviated under some conditions. Briefly, the strategy is to use a metric(s) that is fast to compute to processsamples to determine if they are very similar or very dissimilar and only calculate the more expensivemetric(s) when more careful arbitration is required. Figure 8 plots the distribution of sim structural andsim ocr metrics for all samples with the real positive and negative labels. For the majority of samples witha real-negative label, the sim structural values are higher than 0.9. Therefore, for a unlabeled sample, if ithas a sim structural that is higher than a threshold, then the early dropping model prediction is that it isnot a

activities integrated withentrepreneurially minded learning. Students practiced and exercised engineering design processduring the second (spring) semester with an engineering entrepreneurial mindset through variousclass activities and design projects with selected topics. This also exposed the students to anengineer’s role in a society and the related responsibilities along with creation of new innovativeideas.Erdil et al. [10,11] studied a curricular model to develop an entrepreneurial mindset inengineering students which emanated from the Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network(KEEN)’s 3C’s, of curiosity, connections and creating value. The study spanned across all fouryears of all engineering and computer science programs. Flipped classroom

They normally try “guess”values by on-line tuning, but they are also requested to derive parameters from the previouslydeveloped model (adapted from the previous group) once incorporated in the closed loop,including the Simulink modules for the final element (control valve, variable speed pump) andthe controller (Figure 5)Figure 5. The open-loop model residing in the s-function module is integrated in Simulink withthe final element module (including saturation blocks for physical limits) and the PID controller module for the closed-loop.Students are also invited to use the previously developed transfer function

In a relatedon-going project, standardized test questions have been developed, and data is being collected toinvestigate whether improved student learning can be measured via other assessments.AcknowledgementsThis work has been in part supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.2215133.
