. Inaddition, this experiment can be used to obtain thermodynamics data, specifically the enthalpy ofvaporization as well as a portion of the phase diagram for the chosen liquid.In the future I plan to work to improve this experiment. The first problem to explore is that theflask needs to be jostled to maintain boiling, likely due to the surface tension of methanol. Thismight be overcome by either using a shaker table or using a different fluid. In addition, it willlikely be beneficial for students to use addiitonal liquids so that they can build a “consensus” andbe even more convincing that boiling cold is not only possible but quite normal with a widevariety of applications.References[1] T.

Therefore, students who did not have the necessarymathematical abilities to be successful in engineering courses needed help to pursue theirengineering majors and complete their engineering degrees. In order to retain and supportengineering majors, many universities have offered bridge programs in mathematics for students[3][4]. Such programs were common in the 1990’s and have increased again recently as the needhas been recognized widely. Bridge programs aimed to increase engineering students’ retentionby strengthening their mathematical competencies. There are many types of bridge programs indifferent disciplines, especially science and mathematics. Bridge mathematics programs weremore common in mathematics than science

It was designed by and manufactured for a university with no intention ofspinning off a commercial enterprise, at least on its own. When other products became available,production ended and it was replaced in the classroom, mostly by Digilent’s Analog Discovery.Available for about the same amount of time as Mobile Studio are the CircuitGear devices fromSysComp.

The guidance given to each group by the project leadership was thatparticipants were expected to implement a new strategy in their course(s) and document thechange in a design memo. These memos include why they chose a particular strategy, how theyimplemented it, what they learned and how they would adjust it for future use, and any tips orpotential pitfalls others should be aware of when implementing the
