Also, a correlation between some of the student’s communication, attendance, andlearning management system usage versus their course grades could be completed. Further, anANOVA could be completed if demographic, ANGEL usage, email usage, and coursesatisfaction were known for each individual student (currently these are known only at theaggregate level).Bibliography 1.

Select appropriate sensors and actuators to implement the proposed system. These may include position/velocity/acceleration sensors, temperature sensors, motors, linear actuators, and many others. Note: accuracy, speed, and cost all matter! Select an appropriate microcontroller(s) to implement the proposed SLS system.

Furthermore, the basic realities of doctoralprograms make it difficult for students to make use of available resources to help them improvetheir writing and oral competencies.This research paper presents results of an exploratory survey of Ph.D. students and identifiesseveral communication-related needs that should be addressed in their programs to enable themto function as independent researchers. The ability to communicate effectively supportsengineering Ph.D.’s ability to fully participate in the many communication-related aspects oftheir scholarly community such as the exchange of ideas, informal and formal collaborations,and collegial interactions.
