Solaris One. Following a disastrous solar flare, two major systems on thespace station become unstable; the parabolic dish beaming energy back to Earth as well as theenergy distribution system running throughout the asteroid. To fix the two systems, there are Page 24.1092.3two mini-games that the player must complete to accomplish their mission. Because theasteroid is open to exploration, the games do not have to be completed in any particular order.

Industry/University Partnership in a Capstone Course Lawrence Whitman, Don Malzahn Department of Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering Wichita State UniversityAbstractWichita State University has partnered with industry to provide real world projectexperience for undergraduate students. Industry provides students with ill-definedproblems where student teams must define the problem and develop solutions thatuse tools and methods learned in their courses. Students from this course havewon the best paper award from the Institute of Industrial Engineers at the regionaland national level. This course also addresses several of the ABET criteria andprovides the opportunity for

theperspective or details that have been revealed, can be thought of as acceptable, or academicallydishonest. These cases have the greatest variety in rationale behind them, but generally centerupon what “acceptable” collaboration is. For instance, we ran into many cases where groups ofstudents had very similar code. Upon speaking to parties involved, the following story mightevolve: - Student A and B worked together closely, but have clearly different submissions via comments and style, and report each other as collaborators. - Student C, in a panic, asks Student B for help after Student B submitted their project. Their submission is very similar to Student B, and thus Student A, but they do not report working with Student A
introduction to programming with C++. Theimplemented strategy blended pre-recorded online lectures and homework assignments, with oneweekly optional face-to-face meeting. The same instructor taught both the blended instructionand the traditional face-to-face lecture. The focus of this study was twofold: a) determinepotential negative impact of the blended format, and b) identify the major predictors of finalperformance in this course. A one-way ANOVA analysis indicated no statistically significantdifferences in final course score between the control and the treatment groups. The analysis of aproposed path analysis model showed that self-efficacy, perceived engagement and perceiveddifficulty are significant predictors of students’ final performance in
