The workbook encourages writing andreflection, group work and group sharing for students and provides opportunities for detailedinstructor feedback and intrusive academic advising.Moving ForwardStudents in EXEP cohorts sign an Academic Success Contract during summer orientation whichspecifies they must receive a B or better in their Algebra II course in no more than two attemptsin order to be admitted to their desired pre-engineering program. Initially, the procedure forstudents who failed to pass Algebra II with a B or better in their first semester included thesubmission of a written essay to a committee of academic advisors who decided if studentsshould be allowed to continue in the CEAS.

They are encouraged to identify problems from their work experience, and those that might be useful to their company (if they are not confidential). They are also notified that this is a required first task of the course for credit. Each student needs to submit this list along with sketches via email, but no later than the first day of classes.

The dependent variableis a dichotomous variable indicating if students marked engineering as their major at the end ofthe fourth year of college. As all students in the sample indicated engineering at the beginning ofcollege, this variable represents whether they were retained in engineering at the end of theirfourth year of college or not. Students who initially did not select engineering, but later switchedmajors into engineering, were not included in this analysis for two reasons. First, the number ofstudents who switch into engineering tends to be quite small, much smaller than the number

selected pattern in activity one.Kaplan (2000) has presented different approaches for visualizing geometric patterns includingplain, outline, checkerboard and outline-and-checkerboard approaches. In this activity, theseapproaches are utilized to develop the three-dimensional shading screen from the two-dimensional geometric pattern.The shading function of the selected pattern, a 12-fold polygon, is shown in figure 5. Figure 7(a)shows the plain pattern in the x-y plane. The lines that create the pattern are offset on both sideof the lines to generate outline. As shown in figure 7 (b), the blue lines indicate the outline ofpatterns that are used to visualize solids and voids in the screen. Pattern outlines are filled withhatches in figure 7 (c

models were subsequently developed to capture and refine the complexity of this concept [2],[4], [5]. While these models have framed epistemological beliefs in somehow different ways [2],they all propose that multiple dimensions should be considered when understandingepistemological beliefs. These dimensions include a) certainty of knowledge, the extent to whichthe knowledge is considered as fixed or fluid, b) simplicity of knowledge, the extent to which theknowledge is viewed as discrete or relative/contextual, c) source of knowledge, the extent towhich someone is being a receiver or constructor of knowledge, d) justification for knowing, theextent to which someone justifies knowledge through evidence or authority, and e) attainabilityof truth

This output of the VCVS provides thecollector voltage for BJTs or drain voltage for MOSFETs. Resistor R10 is a built-in current-limiting resistor used with diode IV measurements. The anode of a diode under test is connectedto terminal DA. The VCVS output current is limited to approximately Β±25mA.Fig. 2. Partitioned curve tracer schematic.

Each state can have a different threshold level, and depending ona given threshold, we associate an error probability with that state. In our approach we use threestate Markov chain model, where there are two good states, E (Excellent) and F (Fair), and asingle bad state, B. This gives us an insight for modeling wireless channels more accurately.Assuming that probability of transition from state E to state B and vice versa is very low, we canrepresent this with the diagram in Figure 1.
