The work will them involve the implementation of the Holo-MSE app in introductorymaterial science course to teach the selected concepts. Students will be asked to utilize theapp, interact with holograms and take built-in quizzes for each module (Crystal structures andMiller indices). Their performance will be compared with the historical student performancedata for the two concepts as well as with a control group where the mode of instruction willbe intentionally kept traditional, i.e. reliance on 2D drawings and video animations.5.

processing and computer vision in thisactivity.Digital image processing (DIP) is processing digital images using a computer or computersystem. It consists of signals and systems as related to images. The system input should be adigital image. System will use a compatible algorithm to generate an output image. Image editingtools such as Photoshop are examples of digital image processing.The steps in image processing are as follows, (a) We have analog 3D surroundings around us. A camera is used to capture the surroundings. (b) Analog input is converted into digital form. (c) The digital image file is used as digital image processing input. (d) A computer processes the input image as a two dimensional

In EXEP,students must achieve a grade of B or better in Algebra II in no more than two attempts beforethey can advance. When the EXEP students pass Algebra II with a grade B or higher, they areplaced in Pre-Engineering, Pre-Engineering Technology, or Computer Science. The Pre-Engineering and Pre-Engineering Technology curricula consist of a set of courses in the firstthree semesters of a CEAS curriculum. Students who complete the pre-programs with a grade ofC or higher in all the courses can apply and be admitted into the professional programs.
