In the lab guide introduction, we also offer the students with an overall motivation to conduct that particular experiment, as well as the challenges that will be tackled. B. Pre-lab: Before each experiment, the students should answer a series of 5 quick questions. The pre-lab’s role is to allow the students to recapitulate the key points of the theory that will be needed during each experiment. C. Procedures: This section of the laboratory guide contains the procedures that each student/group must take in order to complete the experiment. We provide a

This is the option that was chosen,because it allows for expandability (such as addingcomputer vision for autonomy), and it allows morecommunications options than just packetized serial.The RaspberryPi Model-B provides a 700 MHzARM11 CPU, a Broadcom VideoCore IV GPUwith OpenGL support, and two USB 2.0 ports.6 Figure 6.

University of Wisconsin-Platteville are required to complete a large number of diverse writing assignments. Theycomplete ten laboratory courses, many of which require weekly lab reports. Senior-level coursesare focused on design, and students prepare many technical design reports in these courses; alarge design paper is the final deliverable for the capstone Senior Design course. Moreover,given the undergraduate-only nature of the university, all student writing is assessed by facultymembers. The traditional model for grading student writing is to mark up the writing withcorrections and suggestions for improvements and assign a grade between 0 and 100%.Despite the extensive practice students carry out and despite the frequent, thorough, and well

Problem Statements are included at the top of each figure.In the second set of online exercises to be completed by the beginning of Week 5, the objectivewas to have the students learn a new concept about free body diagrams and apply it to a scenarioproblem. The concept presented was the use of more than one free body diagram in a singlesystem to solve for unknown forces, where just one diagram was not enough. In this set ofexercises, students learned how to create free-body diagrams for exiting structures by watchingtwo brief (3-7 min.) videos wherein a free-body diagram was created for a cantilever monumentand

However, the longitudinal examination (as well as my ongoingintrospection) regarding “Simulating Kelly” as an engineering process has helped to provide bothpersonal benefits and research outcomes.

Describe modern trends, including distributed generation and smart grid applications. B. PrerequisitesDetermining appropriate prerequisites for this course was challenging. Electrical engineeringstudents have required coursework in circuits that covers topics like phasors, complex power,transformers, and polyphase power. They have also been required to take a course inelectromechanical energy conversion that reviews these topics. Electrical engineering students inthis course should be very comfortable with these topics. On the other hand, students from otherengineering disciplines are only required to take a service course
