effect due to instruction format and instructor on self-efficacy was interesting tonote. The absence of a difference could be because the students simply learn the methods inclass, but gain self-efficacy through their experience of applying the information to their project.This would be consistent with a previous study, which found that engineering design self-efficacy is correlated to student effort and experience rather than external factors such as sponsortype, validation method, and amount of sponsor guidance [25].b) Design Self-Efficacy to COVID-19 Project ChangeStudents were asked if they had to make changes to their project due to COVID-19.

the game would benefit from collaborationwith educators who can provide insights to a young student’s mind. Moving forward, the authors areworking with more teachers, especially those who do not have a background in aerospace, to obtainfeedback. Hopefully, approvals will be granted soon to allow students playing the game to be surveyed toobtain a richer set of feedback.AcknowledgementsSupport for this project was graciously provided by NSF project REvolutionizing Diversity OfEngineering (REDO-E) (project 1730693).References[1] Data USA: Aerospace Engineers. 2018.[2] Elam, M.

IoT CourseAbstractThis work-in-progress paper discusses the laboratory setup and delivery of a pilot course on thefundamentals of Internet of Things (IoT). Hands-on laboratory experiments and project-basedexperiences are adopted to introduce and reinforce IoT-related concepts. The laboratoryexperiments introduce the students to (a) the collection of data using temperature and motionsensors (b) program the microcontroller, and (c) to communicate between WiFi-enabledmodules. Rather than using the hardware and software tools from an established vendor in theareas of IoT, we chose to design and assemble our laboratory experiments and projects withsimple, cost-effective, off-the-shelf components. The project activities focused on system designand
cleaned b he f a e and d ce he ame final e l a ca ef llcrafted designs. If the only measure of design quality is just how many resources are used in theprogrammable device, poor designs and high-quality designs will score identically.This pedagogical problem is evident even in the simplest case of implementing a singlecombinational function. In the FPGA case, no matter how clumsy or non-minimal the de ignefunction specification is, the software simply evaluates the truth table for the function, and storesit in the look-up table memory in a logic block. In the CPLD case, specification of non-minimized, redundant functions is immaterial, as the software reduces the function to minimalform. The software even determines whether sum

Visualize Student Flow Through the CurriculumAbstractEngineering enrollment at Baylor University increased by more than 110% from fall 2001 to fall2010. The increase taxed both our faculty and facilities and prompted the need for enrollmentmanagement measures. Risk-factor and logistic regression analyses led to the implementation ofa B or better requirement for the freshmen engineering course sequence in fall 2011. Effectivewith fall 2013, incoming freshmen engineering students were required to meet minimumSAT/ACT scores to declare Pre-Engineering as their major. These students were required to earnsemester grades of B or better in the two-semester freshmen engineering course sequence toqualify to declare a degree-granting engineering major. These

soldering, we needed to use a lab room rather thanthe usual classroom. Such classroom change was announced in the previous class in person,posted on LMS, and via emails typically at the beginning of the week as a reminder.The instructor who showed up to the classroom might be one of the three instructors, but notnecessarily the home teacher all the time. The students did not need to change their plan when adifferent instructor showed up. The instructors just needed to explain how team-teaching worked.Given the limited room capacity during the COVID-19 pandemic, the students from each sessionwere partitioned into A and B groups. Depending on how much content needed to be delivered inperson, some classes were on the AB-Potion schedule, when A group

Free-body diagram I is drawn to calculate the support reactions. The supports at A and D are smooth self-aligning bearings, which exert no bending or torsional couples. All unknown internal forces and couples have been assumed in their defined positive directions: normal force: tension, shear force: clockwise moment, and bending couples: positive curvature. Free-body diagrams II, III, and IV, define the internal force system within each of the three continuous loading regions, A-B, B-C, and C-D, respectively. Figure 2. Free

analyze theseindicators of student success, we consider student concept inventory performance, course lettergrades, and course percentage grades.Correlation to Student SuccessThe concept inventory covers topics that our students would have seen in both the prerequisiteStatics course and the Strength of Materials course. This makes a comparison between the pretestconcept inventory score and student Statics grades relevant (see Figure 1). Note that these gradesare listed numerically; 4.0 is an “A” grade, 3.5 is a “B” grade, and so forth to 2.0 as a “C” grade.Because the Strength of Materials course prerequisite requires that students pass Statics with a “C”grade, there are no grades lower than 2.0 on the horizontal axis of Figure 1
