Through an email invitation, four of the sixengineering supervisors agreed to participate, and this meeting was held towards completion ofthe co-op work term. Focus groups are loosely structured gatherings of 4-12 people who engagein a discussion guided by the moderator. The primary advantage of a focus group is the abilityfor discussion to expand beyond the preconceptions of the researcher(s) and to provide dataabout key issues important

This paper examines the effects of the freshman designexperience on student performance in an introductory sophomore circuits course taken bystudents majoring in either electrical or computer engineering. Students who took the freshmandesign experience performed significantly better in the circuits course than those who did not.Students who took the electrical and computer engineering module in the freshman designexperience performed slightly better in the circuits course than students who took a differentmodule.1.

is generated in the QAorepeating sequence block in the model, which provides flow as a predetermined function of time.This function takes a user-defined heart rate and stroke volume to calculate a time waveform ofblood flow out of the heart. This blood from the heart flows into an “Add” block that subtractsoff the flow of blood leaving the artery into the systemic circulation. The output of the “Add”block is the net flow of blood into the systemic artery. This is then fed into an integration block,indicated by “1/s.” Integration of the flow gives the volume of blood in the artery, indicated byV. This volume of blood results in stretching the walls of the artery to create pressure. Theconversion of volume to pressure is done through the

Systemizing is defined as the drive andability to analyze the rules underlying a system, in order to predict its behavior and appears to becentral to the understanding of engineering. Empathizing is defined as both the interest andability to identify another's mental states and to respond to these with one of a range ofappropriate emotions.10The SQ-EQ model places these cognitive styles in tension and compares the relative strength ofthese styles within individuals as a predictor of their cognitive behavior.
