STUDENT LEARNING THROUGH CONTINUOUS QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS Tom C. Roberts, P.E., Shagun Sharma Kansas State UniversityIntroductionFrom Fall 1995 to Spring 2013, more than 2,650 students completed a one hour Personal & ProfessionalDevelopment course in the College of Engineering at Kansas State University. The course originatedfrom a late 1980’s series of Saturday morning professional development workshops designed for key stu-dent leaders. The workshops were combined into an elective one hour course (DEN 275) named“STARS” in the early 1990’s. Enrollments were low (10 to 15 students per semester) and decreasedwhen the university changed from semester to hourly

We hypothesize that theprocess of reflection and iteration inherent to hackathon competitions will strengthen theparticipant groups’ perceived EJ skills. Finally, engineering leadership (EL) skills relate to theleadership style(s) used by individuals to lead groups of engineers to achieve a common goal. Aneffective leader exercises influence at interpersonal, team, and organizational levels, whilesimultaneously building strong relationships. We hypothesize that in the absence of a well-structured project, the need to delegate tasks among team members and develop solutionsquickly will increase the perceived EL abilities of participant groups.To frame this study, we will use the Buck Institute of

utilizedteaching methods that were customized to how people learn most efficiently. Analysis ofVariance (ANOVA) and Pearson‟s correlation were used to study the relationship betweencontent knowledge, self efficacy, cognitive level, and critical thinking level.It was found that critical thinking and self efficacy scores are positively correlated with eachother, but neither is correlated with the student‟s course grade. In addition students who statedthat they believed they would earn an „A‟ in the first year course performed significantly betterin critical thinking. Critical thinking and self efficacy scores did not have a correlation withoverall course grades, which suggests that course grades may not be the best method for definingthe quality of a

ResultsSince this is a research brief, only the results of the Delphi study after round 3 will be presentednext. The full set of results from rounds 1 through 3 will be presented in a forthcoming article.Relevance Ratings. The average relevance ratings (on a 1-5 scale) and standard deviations (s)for the various conceptions of judgment given in Table 1 during the final Delphi round rangedfrom 3.00 (s=1.17) to 4.88 (s=0.33) based on n=17 responses. Decision making (item 7 in Table1) had the highest average relevance of 4.88 and the smallest standard deviation of s=0.33,indicating the

When multiple sources (current-carrying wires) are present, theresulting magnetic field is the sum of all fields sourced by each individual wire, according to theprinciple of superposition. Therefore, it is possible to visualize the magnetic field associated witha system containing an arbitrary number of infinite current-carrying wires in a VR environment.The user may interactively manipulate the

In the early 1970’s, the first author was evolved with designing, building andinstalling successful ground based missile locating and tracking systems for the Department ofDefense. Funds for additional ground based missile locating and tracking systems were notallocated because a decision was made to deploy satellite missile defense systems. The 1972Antiballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty with the Soviet Union delayed development of missiledefense systems by the United States (U.S.). Now, the U.S. has a National Missile Defense(NMD) program. The most pressing concern today is the feasibility of an attack by NorthKorean ballistic missiles bearing nuclear or biological weapons. Hypothesizing that a

IntroductionWiMAX has been standardized by IEEE 802.16 standards for broadband wireless accesssystems, moreover it has been also adopted by ITU as one of the IMT-2000 technologies inNovember 2007.802.16c addressed primarily the line of sight (LOS) environment at frequencybandwidth of (10-16 GHz) .WiMAX bandwidth is assumed to be 70 Mbit/s over 31 miles[1].To provide such data rates requires higher capacity backhaul networks. If we look at thebackhaul networks presently providing services for conventions wireless networks. They do nothave enough capacity to provide the required bandwidth for WiMAX access points.Clever utilization of twisted pair has given some consumers network access of 128 Kb/S to 2.3Mb/S even though most access of this kind through
