Table 1. Participating InstitutionsInstitution A is a small, private liberal arts college with approximately 1,500 undergraduatestudents. The department of mathematics and computer science has approximately 25 CS majors,and the CS major is designed to offer students hands-on experience on real-world projects whileproviding a grounding in theoretical ideas. The course used in the survey is a senior-levelsoftware engineering capstone course that used OpenMRS as a project base. Students addressedbug reports to learn the system and then designed and implemented a new add-on module.Institution B is a public liberal arts university serving approximately 6,100 undergraduatestudents and 800 graduate students.

. Ultimately, the solution to the lack of dedicated engineering space was simple (butnot easy): construct a new building. However, building a new space on campus requiresinstitutional support and a funding source. The College President and College Advancementoffice began raising funds to design and build an addition to the existing science center. Theseefforts culminated in the construction in 2017 of a joint Engineering and Biomedical SciencesHall, which included a dedicated engineering laboratory, an engineering computation lab, amodern teaching classroom, three faculty offices, and two “project labs” intended to provideworkspace for Engineering and Integrated Science design, research, and capstone projects.However, shortly after construction was

What are the students’ initial responses to encountering an open-ended analysis project? 2. Do the students’ technical skills develop linearly during the courses or is the development recursive? 3. How do students’ conceptualizations of an open-ended problem develop throughout the project? 4. Does an open-ended project in a cornerstone course provide improved preparation for senior capstone?These research questions are assessed via a sequence of surveys and interviews of students fromboth cohorts.IntroductionThe arrival of COVID-19 in 2020 to North American university campuses was disruptive

Using bioethanol or blending it with gasoline both reduce the relianceon fossil fuel and ultimately reduce the carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere. Thus, it is a trulysustainable transport fuel.In this paper, the design of the bioreactor, instrumentation and automation mechanisms arepresented.

Later in the semester, concept selection methods are taught with the reminder that it isnot ideal to simply argue based on initial biases and gut feelings.

Furthermore, they already have experience with the filter design tools and real-time implementation capabilities available in the Hyperception environment and the Bridgenorth boards.
