. Shifts in local andglobal industries due to economic and political changes, as well as geographic movement ofmanufacturing or service activities also change regional demands for certain skills of aworkforce. In the 1990’s many people became students in order to acquire skills highlydemanded by their workplace or job market at large. Various motives behind taking such step,ranging from a more interesting job to advancement at work and better employability, aredescribed later in the paper. Such students are an important part or the overall student populationin the state of Connecticut, which at the beginning of 1990’s was one of the hardest hit by the

tuition and other funding purposes, studentsenrolled in the 3+2 Program are treated as undergraduate students, and thus they are eligible forfunding as they work on multiyear projects with undergraduate students.Note that the project described here does not entirely fit the VIP Program definition from the VIPConsortium [15]. Namely, students may take research credits which are graded S/U. If they takethese credits as Independent Study, then they are graded A-F. Also, Senior Seminar is graded S/Uwhile Senior Design Project is graded A-F. So, there is a mix of grading types that was agreedupon by the program faculty.Moreover, stipends to fund participating students are secured through grants.

The analog control system is then converted into its digitalcounterpart by adding appropriate interface devices and controller gains.It is assumed that the motor feedback is monitored by an incremental encoder (MPG), which returnschange in position (i.e., velocity) per sampling time T; it is also assumed that the controller output iscommunicated to the analog plant via a DAC.An analog motor plant is often modeled by a double-integrator transfer function Q( s ) Km Gp (s) = = 2 (1) M (s) swhere Q(s

The process of designing/constructing a drive to replace the H2 started Fall 2012; thisdrive will operate with a 380 V bus voltage while supplying 160 A for 20 s and 220 A for 3 s.Currently, a 1st generation BEV motor drive has been successfully tested with a 100 V bus.Tests conducted at a 380 V bus voltage have shown limited success; unexpected heating hasoccurred, leading to thermal runaway. Plans have been made to address this issue with a new380 to 18 V DC/DC converter needed for IGBT drivers and adding liquid cooling.

preference due to personality type. In other words, students with ahigher level of neuroticism may have a more difficult time working on group test, this may be tired of theirnegative perception of group tests. More examination also needs to be done in order to determine exactlywhy individuals who are highly capable, have an aversion to group test. Qualitative data should be collectedto determine if the negative perception is due to the extra work perceived (due to explaining concepts) oran aversion to working in a group in general.References: 1.

+ AC + BC.NCL systems contain at least two DI registers, one at both the input and at the output. Twoadjacent register stages interact through their request and acknowledge signals, Ki and Ko,respectively, to prevent the current DATA wavefront from overwriting the previous DATAwavefront, by ensuring that the two DATA wavefronts are always separated by a NULLwavefront. The acknowledge signals are combined in the Completion Detection circuitry toproduce the request signal(s) to the previous register stage, utilizing either the full-word or bit-wise completion strategy 16. To ensure delay-insensitivity, NCL circuits must adhere to thefollowing criteria: Input-Completeness 14 and Observability 14. Furthermore, when circuits utilizethe bit-wise

One way students increased the participation of other students was by encouraging sharing, which we define as proactively putting out an open-ended call for others’ input. To be coded as an encouraging sharing move, a student’s utterance had to go beyond simply asking for affirmation or refutation of an idea they themselves had stated. For example, when working on a problem about a firefighting hose, S made an encouraging sharing move when they put out a call for a peer’s idea: S: Yeah. What do you think Abe? What should we do?(2) Acknowledging
