% 100% 83%The last session was the 'round table' discussion where participants could ask any question(s)they wanted. A few of the questions from the participants, and the corresponding answers arelisted below. Answers will be in an abbreviated form rather than a full discussion. Q: How to submit multiple proposals a year and still have them be different? Ans: Change the lead investigator to reflect focus of research and/or tasks. Can also expand area(s) of potential topics or focus more on one subset. For instance the focus of a task can change based on where it will be submitted. Q: How to choose/select grad students? Ans. Will change with time. A MS student from home institution is easier as you

frequency.Quantile Plots4Suppose the fraction, f, of a sample is less than or equal to the value q(f). q(f) is termed thequantile for that fraction. For a particular probability distribution, q(f) can be determined for anyvalue of f and any sample size. It is expected that the experimental quantile (i.e. the quantile forthe data obtained in the experiment) will be very similar to the theoretical quantile if the datafollow the theoretical distribution closely. Put another way, if the experimental data is plottedagainst the theoretical quantile the points would be expected to lie along a straight line. If true,then the sample is considered to be normally distributed. A quantile plot may be constructed asfollows:1. Order the experimental data xi from

and a project demo. All the project presentation videos were collected and posted before a Zoom meeting of Final Project Q&A session was held. During the synchronous Q&A session, each group was assigned a 10-minute slot to answer questions from the instructors, who had watched the project presentation videos before the Q&A session. The students were also encouraged to create a website for their project, which could be used to strengthen their personal profiles for later use.5) Design and distribute surveys at multiple points of the semester to understand students’ learning conditions, preferred teaching modes, feedback on the course modules, challenges, and learning outcomes to adjust the course content and

It meansthat qi = qoi (t ) + α i (t ) .Vibration of the elements adjacent to the head gives a variable component of the tape velocity.Velocity of the tape in the front of the head from the angular velocity of two neighboringelements is defined by the relation

center of mass. Thisassumption can be later checked to see if it is valid.The cylinder is assumed to be at an initial temperature Ti and is then placed in still air at atemperature T∞. The coefficient of convection and surface area of the body are referred to as hand A, respectively. If the body is at a temperature T, then, the heat transfer Q due to convectionis given by Q = dU/dt = hA(T-Tinf) (2)where U is the total energy stored in the system. The temperature T obviously varies with time.The quantity Q can also be expressed in terms of the heat capacity C of the material. Indeed, bydefinition C is Q C

The second and third sets of questions were based on a surveypreviously used in an EOP-based course[6]. After data collection, it was compiled and statisticallyanalyzed by converting the Likert-type rating scales to numerical values as shown below, where 1 and 5represent responses that strongly disagree (1) and strongly agree (5) with the presented sub-questions,respectively. Sustainability/EOP-related questions (Q. 2 and 3) related used in the survey are shown below:Table 2: Question 2 - This second part of the survey aims to assess how the course project helped you in learning andapplying course topics
