their living and/or testing environment in selecting both the proximity and motion sensors. This unit introduced the requirement of calibration, which could be accomplished with linear regressions. Students performed regression analyses to calibrate the sensor data into meaningful distance measurements.Module 3: AC and DC motors. Although AC and DC motors were discussed, the experiments were restricted to DC motors due to costs associated with the sensor kits and safety precautions. Students configured and controlled all 3 motor types DC, Stepper, and Servo motors to perform a variety of no-load tasks. The main purpose was to gain the confidence in programming the various motor types to do tasks. Subsequently, the students selected

As students would perform the measurements needed to calculate electricalresistance prior to the measurements needed for the calculations of thermal conductivity andspecific heat capacity, the warm-up time was acceptable as long as the apparatus was turned on atthe beginning of the lab session.A power switch was integrated into the circuit along with two LED indicators, a yellow

Both have contributed to engineering’sexclusivity and tendency to marginalize those who challenge the myths. As Shaun Harperwarned, an education that avoids engaging with social context and, for example, conversationsabout race, risks graduating “accidental racists” [25, 26].
