within the ML constituent. SAM can reduce the strain thresholdto widen application of multifunctional MLO as a self-powered strain sensor as well as a mechanical-electrical energy harvester. Methods and DiscussionFirst conceptual design of a functional building block was drafted for SAM as shown in Figure 1(a).Global-to-local strain amplification of the designed building block was validated using COMSOLMultiphysicsâ in Figure 1(b). The ML constituent was modeled as pure PDMS and the connectingpieces modeled as acrylic plastic. One end piece was fixed in space, as the acrylic is relatively rigidcompared to PDMS, this is considered a reasonable assumption. A mesh convergence was done usingCOMSOL’s predefined

With Activity 1, most students were aware of,and could list examples of either the S.I. units, U.S. units or both systems, but they struggled toexplain or define the concept of a dimension (code B). In addition, they could not explain therelationship between dimensions and units (code C). The students felt the first activity really taughtthem to define the terms, compare the terms and explain their importance. For Activity 2, themajority of students could list some fundamental units (Code E). Student’s main mistakes werecalling “weight” a fundamental dimension instead of “mass.” Also

Next,to statistically establish the adequacy of the sample size, we proceeded with Bartlett’stest and the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) Measure of Sampling adequacy (results ofanalysis in Appendix B). The Bartlett’s Test of Sphericity establishes whether or notthere is scope to find statistically significant factors from the dataset. The KMO measureof sampling adequacy statistically determines if there is adequate data, with scoresgreater than 0.5 and tending to 1.0 being adequate.

A chi-square test approached significance in favor ofmore B- and above GPAs among RESP students than the comparison students. Overall, wefound that high school preparation predicted STEM students’ graduation GPAs. Further,although RESP participation did not predict the cumulative GPAs of STEM majors, the programmay: 1) improve STEM degree persistence and 2) ensure that more of the program’s STEMgraduates achieve at least a B- cumulative graduation GPA. The number of RESP andcomparison students is relatively small, yet these findings nevertheless offer preliminaryevidence that the intervention may be effective at improving

: Implementing Sophomore Cornerstone Courses in Electrical and Computer EngineeringMany engineering programs have significant project- and design-based courses in the freshmanand senior years. Freshman courses usually serve a dual purpose: a) making engineering a moreattractive study option for undecided students, and b) introducing the basics of technical andnon-technical skills, such as teamwork and project planning. On the other hand, seniors doingtheir capstone projects are expected to perform at a more proficient level, one that woulddemonstrate their readiness for entering the workforce as engineers.As will be discussed below, the project component in our freshman year-long sequence evolvesfrom minimally structured projects
