In a standard in-person classroom, this is not doable unless it is aspecially set classroom equipped with monitors & teacher computer, or the students each havetheir own laptop/cell phone by which they can access info and use a website.The above was subjective information about virtual teaching in comparison to in-personteaching. However, it is important to supply more objective data that is not personal to theteacher. For this purpose, three things have been done: (a) surveying students about theirfeelings regarding this virtual class, (b) comparison of course evaluations with pre-COVIDevaluations, and (c) comparison of course grades

While this was a known problem for theEE program, a closed-loop educational assessment and improvement was conducted to close thegap and relate students to their field of study as early as the first semester of study. In this newapproach to the lower-division courses students will start system view courses and currentprototyping circuits and tools were used to set up the laboratory experiments. The goals of thisstudy were: a) Integration of courses and providing a system view in the lower-division courses. b) Improving retention and engagement in early years of study. c) Closing the gap between lower-division and upper-division courses by practicing system view projects using
system: E87 Course: Introduction to Engineering Disciplines, for freshmen students, provides a team research component in cutting edge labs under faculty guidance, as well as instruction in engineering problem solving tools such as Matlab usage, learning styles, study skills and time management methods. All freshmen which include some NSF scholars are enrolled in the E87 course. Academic Excellence Workshops (AEW) meet twice weekly for two-hour sessions solving difficult math/science problem sets designed to achieve mastery in math and science coursework Structured Study Nights (SSN) sessions are aimed to produce B or better grades in mid- term and final exams for all class levels.

Dynamicexcitation of the beams caused full repair of some of the beams (Figure 2). These initial results,which were performed in atmosphere, are more fully detailed in Reference10. In the present workwe more thoroughly characterize our idealized cantilevered beam and further develop our theoreticalmodel to predict stiction repair of these stiction failed structures.Figure 2. The above figures are of the same set of beams. (a) Beams 1, 2, and 3 are failed in an arc-shaped manner. (b)Beam 3 has been fully repaired by applying 220 Vpp to the

These pilot results showed that the majorityof the students are interested in vertical construction and it is essential to integrate aninfrastructure-based curriculum to increase the inclination of students towards learning andworking in horizontal construction.

Data from more cohorts should be collected from a longitudinal perspective.Last but not least, while internal consistency reliability and construct validity focus on the SASIIII as a whole test, item response theory (IRT) should be employed to investigate how individualitems perform on the SASI III. Based on the IRT results, items with poor performance should beremoved without affecting the reliability and validity of the inventory.ReferencesAl-Sheeb, B. A., Hamouda, A., & Abdella, G. M. (2019).

This enabledstudents a hands-on experience in understanding the assembly and operational principle of a windturbine. During the process, the instructor answered any questions from students and ensured eachstudent was following the project path and none was left behind. As shown in Figure 1 B, students displaythe completed wind turbine assembly that was ready for testing.After building the prototype, students were asked to place it opposing the direction of wind

Belongingness, race, and ethnicityThe relationship between race and feelings of belonging within engineering classrooms is moreinconclusive than the research on belongingness and gender. Some quantitative, survey-basedstudies report findings that display no difference in sense of belonging among different racialgroups [8,12]. Even though Benson et al. [12] do not quantitatively identify a general lack ofbelonging in engineering among black students, with this study focusing on civil engineering, oneinterview with a black female student described how she experienced feeling as though shecouldn’t

The results from the personality tests are used in conjunction with the student resumes to separate the students into teams and assign Team Leaders. The personality test results are important for developing “diversified” teams that are not comprised of a single, predominant personality type. b.
