Inductive teaching techniques may alsobe called learner-centered or student-centered since they require students take more responsibilityfor their own learning compared to traditional lecture based or deductive teaching methods, can bemore interactive and have been found to promote student engagement.1Debate has been researched as a pedagogical method used to improve critical thinking skills andoral communication skills since the 1990’s.3,4 Learner-centered education programs such asnursing and pharmacy, marketing

The goal of the N S F - f u n d e d project was to increase the number ofhighly qualified and prepared engineering students, particularly African American engineers, aswell as to ensure electrical engineering students and graduates have a better understanding oftechnology and its role in STEM education and the policy associated with it. Another key goal ofthe project was to promote wide spread dissemination and usage of portable hands-on

Each student selected which of the two types of cancer s/he would explore.Overall, this introductory project had several underlying goals that aimed to lay a foundation forthe entire course. First, this introductory project was to provide opportunities for the students tobuild skills in examining the disease, device, and patient pathways of cancer. In subsequentprojects, students would further refine their skills and apply them to other

leak-free or airtight systems such as in plastic(micro) fluidic systems, e.g., for point-of-care lab-on-a-chip systems.An ultrasonic weld is made by bringing the working surface of a horn (sonotrode) connected toan ultrasonic transducer in close contact with two workpieces that have been positioned andaligned. The vibrating horn pressed onto the surface of the workpiece(s) creates ultrasonic(10,000 to 30,000 Hz) waves that travel through the workpiece. The ultrasonic waves incombination with applied force, create a vibration-induced frictional heating at the matingsurfaces of the parts, leading to surface melting and subsequent fusion.Ultrasonic welding is a relatively fast (1 sec per weld), clean process that does not requireadhesives

results in lower performance averages by students compared to PSVT:R problems forthis population. It is expected, based on Reusch et al.’s results [22], that there is a higherdifficulty level on the MCT problems used. This, in turn, may have been reflected by themoderate increase in EDA when we consider dividing this value by the time expended on theMCT problem-set as can be estimated from the two Figure 3 graphs (e.g., 0.05microSiemens/minute for MCT). The preliminary results of this pilot study corroborate thesefindings by suggesting a higher normalized arousal (or mean range-corrected EDA/timed event)found in these types of problems compared to PSVT:R (0.13 microSiemens/minute) and Staticsproblems (0.01 microSiemens/minute) (Figure 3).Parallel
