conclusion, this work in progress paper presented the design and implementation of an age-appropriateafter-school program for middle school students. Our experiential learning-based approach providedstudents with a unique opportunity to learn fundamental concepts about advanced manufacturing in anengaging way. This pilot offering served a small, but diverse cohort from the Worcester public schooldistrict. Plans for subsequent offerings are in place to extend its reach to more students, in underrepresentedcommunities.AcknowledgementsThe authors acknowledge the support of the WPI students and manufacturing lab instructors for theirassistance in facilitating the program sessions.

differences lead to inequitable practices within teams such as unfair distributionsof the workload or type of work, often in problematic ways. For example, active and dominantstudents might advocate for themselves to take on the more challenging and interesting parts of aproject, leaving the more mundane and menial work to their passive teammates. Mix-genderedteams in engineering education have been found to have unbalanced work distribution: womenmay do more work related to planning or communication, while men may do more technicalwork [1]. Such disproportionate allocation of work and assumption of roles lead to studentsobtaining unequal gains from team projects, for which the more active student might have hadthe more enjoyable and useful

A replacement for the robotcontrol system that has networking capability can read the sensor’s data from the cloud andcontrols the motion of the robot, accordingly.This in-progress project was implemented in four phases that will be discussed throughout themanuscript.

During pandemic (Fall 2020), instructors have successfully adapted the laboratory courses to conduct almost all the laboratory experiments as conducted pre-pandemic. 2. The comparison of grades for laboratory course taught pre-pandemic (Fall 2019) and post-pandemic (Fall 2020) also indicates that the student performance for these courses has not been affect during a planned semester while observing the precautions for pandemic.Other observations of this data are: • Indiana State University has small class sizes which

If there is existing data, then that data is accessed.Regardless of which data is used, the next step is to complete a failure latency analysis, or a faulttree. Finally, the FMEA is documented and reported.The process for developing a FMEA in ARP5580 begins with identifying when the FMEA is tobe developed and what type of FMEA is to be completed. During system design there aremultiple types of FMEA to be completed at different points of the development schedule. Duringthe conceptual design the effort is focused on planning.

For example, engineering plans anddrawings can only be signed and sealed by a PE no matter if the engineer works in the public orprivate sector [5]. Those engineers who do earn PE licenses have more professionalopportunities, responsibilities, and prestige [6]. According to a 2019 article based on a survey bythe American Society of Civil Engineers, PEs earn higher salaries than non-PEs [7].The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc.

From thefaculty search that hired me, two people were hired - myself and a Hispanic male.

And the resources planned for the position (labspace, funds) were simply cut in half. I felt somewhat alone, and a message of ‘sink or swim’was conveyed by the department chair and many faculty.

The wide range of approaches taken by the students in thePhase 1 was revealing in that the original problem statement was potentially too broad in topicfor students at this level.
