-time hybrid simulation forearthquake engineering research. The purpose of the project is to evaluate the effects of delay onreal-time hybrid simulation and to apply a probabilistic approach for reliability assessment.MATLAB and Simulink are used and probabilistic concepts are applied to account forcharacteristics of one hundred ground motions. This research internship program allows for thedevelopment of project management, time management and teamwork skills, thus helpingstrengthen students’ knowledge of seismic design in civil engineering and prepare them forsuccessful academic and professional careers. The internship program therefore provides valuablementorship for community college students during their transition to a four-year college

By structuring an effective online learning method, thisresearch seeks to empower diverse learners to engage with aquaponics as a viable method forfood production and environmental management. The project evaluates the educationaleffectiveness of tutorials through surveys assessing student comprehension, engagement, andease of implementation. Findings will inform future instructional design improvements andcontribute to the broader field of online education for aquaponics.

. IntroductionThe increased use of microcontroller systems in solving industrial control problems has led to ageneral acceptance of microcontroller knowledge in other areas of engineering such asmechanical and biomedical engineering. An area that has normally been reserved for electrical orcomputer engineers is now multidisciplinary [1], integrating digital electronics, communications,and computing with a variety of systems ranging from medical to biological. With these newenhancements, microcontroller-based teaching has evolved over the past few decades. Thesechanges range from project-based microcontroller teaching that emphasize real worldapplications to the introduction of new educational tools such as robot kits. This new approach toteaching about
