The focus of the analysis was todetermine whether significant changes occurred in self-efficacy levels after the intervention andwhether these changes differed by gender. Paired t-tests were employed to evaluate within-groupdifferences in self-efficacy over time, while independent t-tests were used to comparegender-based differences in the intervention’s effect. The following sections detail the results ofthese analyses. Gender Factor Pre-intervention Post-interventio t-statistic p-value Mean (SD) n Mean (SD) s Female CPSES 3.71 (1.41) 5.48 (1.15) 4.95 <0.05
insights of problem-based learningPBL 13.Problem based learning has a long background in medicine education, nursing education and laweducation, considering that problem-solving process in these fields is a routine practice andstudents should be prepared to address critical situations in which expert knowledge need to beconvoyed with creativity and ability to transfer knowledge to practical action. In these areasproblems are focused rather than projects. Problem-Based Learning as a general model wasdeveloped in medical education in the early 1970's and since that time it has been refined andimplemented in many medical schools. The most extensive application of the PBL in medicineeducation is in the first two years of medical science curricula

timepoints: beginning of Batch 1’s firstsemester (September 2022), end of Batch 1’s first semester (December 2022), and start of Batch2’s first semester (January 2023). They will be referred to as pre-survey (2022), post-survey(2022), and pre-survey (2023) in this paper, respectively. Note that the data from Batch 1includes both Engineering and Non-Engineering students, as all students were required to takethe Principles of Design course, whereas data from Batch 2 only includes Engineering students,as their survey was administered as part of the Introduction to Engineering course. Based on anintention to not overburden the students, each construct was captured using a set of three to sixquestions, hence a total of nine to thirteen Likert scale

The results provide us withinsights to develop effective teaching strategies to address these gaps.Study participants were tasked to complete a scenario-based assessment proposed by Grohs, et al. [1] thatfocuses on systems thinking and problem-solving as engineers by responding to a scenario that addressedtechnical and social contexts. The activity focuses on participants’ responses to a given scenario and theprompts intended to guide respondents in a systems-thinking approach. Data were collected electronicallyand analyzed using qualitative coding methods by applying the assessment tool rubric to evaluate studentresponses using systems thinking constructs from the framework

institutions are beginning toimplement technical interview practices into the classroom as assignments, group projects,warm-ups, class exercises, and dedicating a class to the topic. For instance, literature shows thatexposing students to technical interview exercises in their Data Structure course(s) is one of themost effective methods. One reason being that students are exposed to the process early on but itbecomes natural for them to think as interviewees based on the construct of these particularcourses. Likewise, literature suggests that introducing the technical interview process early in astudent’s computational development could better gauge the overall effectiveness of thisemployed initiative.

At 400 meters, the Cansat shall deploy a giant parachute to reduce the descent rate to 5 m/s. At 300 meters, the Cansat shall release a tethered payload to 10 meters in 20 seconds. During that time, the payload shall maintain the orientation of a video camera pointing in the south direction. The video camera shall be pointed 45 degrees downward to assure the terrain is in the video.

to add safety features. This is the firststep that diverges from the original control. This safety feature is designed to protect the robotfrom trying to drive into itself. Under the normal control scheme, the sensors were only used tohome the robot for point-based control. This change guarantees that if the sensor is tripped thecommand to that motor(s) will be inhibited in the unsafe direction. This has led to a newquestionable feature for the arm motor. Namely if the arm retracts back into its sensor, it willstop and then bounce off, which leads to sporadic motion. To get around this a denounce timerwas added just for the arm sensor to make the motion smoother when trying to home that motor.GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE DEVELOPMENT: HMI WORKTo
