For example, a B- would be given for scores of 80 to 82.9, a B for scores of 83 to 85.9,and a B+ for scores of 86 to 89.9. However, grades of A+, F+, or F- were not awarded at WSUProceedings of the 2019 Midwest Section Conference of the American Society for Engineering Education 3under the new system.

Themobile platform consists of a drive system, sensors for navigation, an embedded processor(Arduino board) for local control and data management, an XBee for wireless communicationwith the local server, and an IP camera for real time video. The IP camera has its owncommunication route via a WiFi channel. The video is then embedded within the GUI foruser monitoring. Images of completed mobile platform are shown in Figure 6.

process as attending class, taking exams, or reading textbooks.However, the formal exercise of assigning grades only started in the late 18th century.Considering the extensive history of higher education, it is remarkable that the formal markers oflearning assessment have only played their role for a comparatively short period of time. Durm(1993) explains that the first college grades were not of the letter (i.e., A, B, C, D, F) variety.Instead, schools typically used descriptive labels such as Yale College’s optimi, second optimi,inferiores, and pejores system from 1785. Durm attributes the first letter grade system, asroutinely employed today, to Mount Holyoke College in 1897 where an A (95-100), B (85-94), C(76-84), D (75), and E (below 75

Osmotic dehydration is considereda simple yet effective preservation technique for increasing shelf life by removing water whilepreserving the sensory and nutritional characteristics of fruits and vegetables. It is often appliedas a pre-drying step prior to a conventional hot air-drying process to reduce the moisture to alevel needed for long-term storage. In this lab module, your team must develop an osmoticdehydration process to achieve dried pineapple with aw < 0.7 within 12 hours of oven drying at50°C.Final report: Based on your measurements and data analysis, determine and discuss thefollowing in your final report:(a) The amount of fresh pineapple, sucrose, and water needed to produce 1 ton of osmo-hotair-dried pineapple wedges(b

, especially for altitudes less than40 km. From the Figure 1 plot, we observe that an increase in wing loading causes an increase inthrust loading, which is sensible. To better observe what is happening at lower altitudes, we can lookat the thrust vs wing loading plane, and the altitude vs thrust loading plane. Changing slope patternscan be interpreted better by looking at 2-D graphs. References1. Petropoulos, B., “Physical parameters of the atmosphere of Venus.
