Next, clicking on the block moves it to the space between the radiation sourceand the detector. Counts can then be measured by setting the time interval and clicking on the counterbutton. Process is repeated for different number of shielding blocks; thus gathering data for differentthicknesses. Entire process can then be repeated for blocks made of different material.

The post-assessment responses showed significant improvement overthe pre-assessment responses, but, again, this was not deemed entirely satisfactory for the cohort.Open-ended pre- and post-assessment questions were administered to the teachers. The responsesto these questions were independently evaluated by McGinnis-Cavanaugh and Ellis using thescoring rubric shown in Appendix B. On average, response scores went up 83% and 60% (seeAppendices B and C) on questions 1 and 2, respectively, showing significant improvement inboth the understanding of both basic mechanics concepts and educational theory with regard tostudent engagement. The assessment questions were as follows: 1. A gymnast stands on a

withmicrocontrollers does not mean that students will respond positively. Instructors used the “buzz”about the Arduino to motivate students, by indicating that the students were using a new andpopular technology. Instructor observations of student reaction showed that students were notuniversally inspired by or interested in the technology. This makes sense because the definitionof “cool” is not uniform for engineering students. Assessment was performed with an end-of-term survey of student attitudes toward thecourse and how it affected their career plans. Students were asked whether the use of theArduino platform changed their attitude toward computer programming and electromechanicalsystems. The complete survey is included in Appendix B. Results from

Both sides also acknowledged thatcommunication can be challenging when not all the members speak the same native language,live in the same time zone or have similar schedules. The reflections to question B2 were lessuniform than those on the first question, as the focus for ITESO students

Afterresearching them, it was decided to use SubG+ resin for the project. Attached below is a briefsummary on the resin properties according to the resource above6: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) friendly, fast curing, low shrink (3.5%) material.The trade-off is higher viscosity (90cP at 25°C compared to SubG which is 12cP), but the benefit of the SubG+ resin is that it holds pigment for longer without as much settling. SubG and SubG+ cures under UV A, B, and C light around 420 nm. You can cure it with a DLP projector, a UV laser, or UV Light Emitting LEDs
