These student outcomes are as follows: (a) Students will demonstrate an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics. (b) Students will demonstrate an ability to design and apply creativity in the design of engineering systems, components and process; (c) Students will demonstrate an ability to function effectively on teams that establish goals, plan tasks, meet deadlines, and analyze risk and uncertainty; (d) Students will demonstrate an ability to

The arm kit comes with everything needed to physically assemble andmount the arm as a stand-alone unit or as an addition to your Turtlebot platform. Shown inFigure 3 is one of our two robotic arms set up without the Turtlebot platform. Each of the servos in the chain needs to have an assigned unique id and this can beaccomplished using the Dyna-Manager software provided by Trossen robotics7. Due to the manypower software connection permutations available for the arm, this proved to be quite frustratingfor both the students and faculty. In the end we used method B

Further, often a conceptual lesson ishighlighted in this type of assignment, such as the critical difference between x- and y-axis flexuralbuckling, highlighted in Figure 5(b).When introducing combined axial and bending forces, students often do not have a good idea ofhow the relative magnitudes of axial and bending loads affect the overall capacity of the member.In one simple problem added to the normal assignment, students generate essentially randompairings of loads for a given section and plot them against the corresponding specificationequations, as in Figure 5(c).

Despite the efforts to ease the transfer process, the need for increased attention andresources devoted to transfer students is particularly evident and critical at mid-sizeduniversities. In a recent study conducted by a mid-sized university examining the experiences oftheir transfer students, the following university-focused recommendations were offered: (a)provide resources to all transfer students on academic warning to enhance their timemanagement, organizational, and attentional skills (e.g., a one-credit course or workshop); (b)include self-efficacy

For example,positive emotions (e.g., joy) may increase engagement and nurture creative learning strategies,while negative emotions (e.g., boredom) may have an opposite effect, diminishing engagementand supporting superficial cognitive processing [2]. In other instances, negative emotions (e.g.,anger) may increase an individual’s desire to prevent future failure [2] and serve to improveperformance.Multi-componential measure of academic emotionsTraditionally, academic emotions are measured with self-reports [9], [10].

Each new trial involves new questionsthat have similar difficulty levels to the previous trial. Therefore, if the student retake a trial,his/her grade will be reduced in the successive trials. The student will not receive a grade untilhe/she successfully solves the trial or exhaust all the trials. In other mastery applications,resubmission would involve an assignment or evaluation instrument that is slightly harder thanthe previous one; therefore, students who resubmit do not receive a reduced grade.
