(six per category): standard problems and inferential problems. The problems in both the categories were small and simple; they did not require complicated mathematical formulas or calculator to solve them. a. Standard problems: The standard or textbook type problems were similar to the ones covered during the course in class assignments, home assignments and exams, with minor variations in numerical values and problem setup. Students were given sufficient practice on like problems. Two typical standard problems are given below: Q#25 Find ‘Vout’, as indicated, for the following circuit: Note: A typical voltage-divider-network; students had sufficient

The stepswith application to the pitch control system for the helicopter are included here. Theperformance specifications for this controller are a maximum 20% overshoot to a step change inthe rotor angle and a maximum settling time of 10 seconds.Step 1: Derive the state model and enter it into MATLAB.The states are

equation is defined as the order of the highest derivative appearing in the equation and ODE can be of any order. A general form of a first-order ODE can be written in the form dy/dt + p(t)y + q(t) + s = 0 where p(t) and q(t) are functions of t. This equation can be rewritten as shown below d/dt(y) +y p(t) = - q(t) - s where s is zero. A classical integrating factor method can be used for solving this linear differential equation of first order. The integrating factor is e∫p dt . Euler Method Graphical methods produce plots of solutions to first order differential equations of the form y’ = f(x,y), where the derivative appears on the left side of the equation. If an initial condition of the form y(x0) = y0 is also specified, then the only solution

algebraic equations, allowing for a nuanced understanding of the student'sproficiency levels across various skills within the subject area. A pivotal mathematical model within CDMs is the Deterministic Inputs, Noisy "and" Gate(DINA) model, which assesses mastery or non-mastery statuses across multiple cognitive skillsbased on raw question responses [21], [24]. The DINA model, a latent class model, classifiesstudents into skill mastery profiles based on their responses to exam questions, with each questionhaving a specific relation to one or more skills [21], [24]. The linkage between questions and theircorresponding intended skills are captured in a Q-matrix, a matrix of ones and zeros indicatingwhich questions require a particular skill in
sample sizes increase, the distribution of the sample mean differencesapproaches normality, even when the underlying data is not perfectly normal (Ghasemi &Zahediasl, 2012).To ensure the data met this assumption, the Shapiro-Wilk test was employed to assess normality.The Shapiro-Wilk test is frequently used in real-world applications across various fields,including educational and psychological research, to evaluate whether data significantly deviatesfrom a normal distribution (Razali & Wah, 2011). This approach helped ensure the validity of thesubsequent t-tests, providing confidence that the assumptions of the statistical models wereadequately met.Figure 4: LAESE Factor scores - Histograms and Q-Q plotsfigure 5: CPSES Factor scores
) = 0.43007, and C = 55(0.59796) - 58.50(0.43007)/e2(0.0392207) = $9.633. In Problem 1, suppose the price of the stock will either increase 10% or decrease 10% during the year. What is the maximum amount you would be willing to pay for the option? (Use the binomial option pricing model described in class in arriving at your answer.) Answer: $3.65 S = $57.00, K = $58.50, u = 1.1, d = 0.9, rf = 4%, T = 2. Therefore, q = (1.04 - 0.90)/(1.1 - 0.9) = 0.7.4. A company is considering making an initial investment [CF(1)] to test the market for a new product. Depending on how well the product sells, it can expand the production capacity with a $350M investment [CF(2)] in year 5 and enter the market in year 6 with a full-scale marketing effort

A few examples are discussed here with specific strategies to promote studentlearning.Students often struggle to distinguish between isothermal and adiabatic processes. Students findit counter-intuitive that a system can absorb energy by a heat transfer, Q without a change intemperature during a process. In many cases the temperature increases with heating, but if thesystem undergoes a phase change at constant pressure the temperature remains constant.

division engineering courses in the Electrical andComputer Engineering department at the University of Texas at Austin. In this study wehave utilized quantitative data such as students’ SI/PLUS session attendance, students’pre-semester GPAs, end-of-semester course grades, and the D’s, F’s, W’s and Q droprates (QDFW rates) for attendees and non-attendees in these programs. Our statisticaldata analysis shows an improvement in both course GPAs and successful coursecompletion for SI/PLUS attendees vs. non attendees. To account for the voluntarynature of these programs, we compared the performance of students with similar pre-semester GPAs to control for the level of preparation of the students.
