resulting impact of them on performance is needed. This is especially importantfor consumers and small businesses that are considering building or installing VAWTs. Thisproject targets two key limitations that exist. First, most numerical methods for studyingplacement and flow fields involve the use of complicated and costly computational fluiddynamics (CFD) software. Second, wind resource maps typically represent values at 30 m orhigher. Small scale VAWT installations are typically at a lower elevation where the influence ofground effects can dominate.2. Project DescriptionThe creation and validation of an accessible VAWT flow field model and the generation of awind resource map tailored for small-scale VAWTs has the potential to improve VAWT

Before he started at UIUC he worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory on a project that aimed at a description of non-adiabatic electron ion dynamics. His research revolves around excited electronic states and their dynamics in various materials using accurate computational methods and making use of modern super computers in order to understand, for instance, how light is absorbed in photo-voltaic materials. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Measuring Student Learning of

In thispaper, the first place design packages from 2007 to 2017 are examined for the inclusion ofsustainability, and the departments of the faculty advisors. The data show that the trend hasincreased over these years. The educational value expressed by the winning teams and advisorswas also explored. The educational value findings may encourage instructors to include thecompetition or sustainability in future design courses.IntroductionAirports nationwide and globally are including sustainability in their

other programs in the department was not appropriatefor the new program so this was revised into a two-semester project, typically in collaborationwith a local manufacturing facility. Expectations for the year-long project were developed usingUbD.Measurable Student Learning Outcomes. Stage 2 of the UbD approach is to develop carefulassessment tools that measure what is important, not what is simply easy to measure. As newcourses were developed, the techniques promoted by UbD were used to thoughtfully create theassessment tools that attempted to measure the big ideas. There is much literature on goodassessment and good student learning outcomes so this is not detailed in this paper. It is simplynoted that the outcomes were not just linked to the

“blinded” mode, it is not currently possible to use labels, or createunique groups, and then collate the results once the review setting is switched to unblinded.When merging unique groups, the software allows the last decision to take precedence. For thisreason, the authors used the “unblinded” mode, which may have impacted the decisions ofreviewers. In addition, Rayyan tended to get overwhelmed if more than one person in a reviewwas making changes simultaneously, and when using labels, it will only let the user who added alabel remove it later. Despite these limitations and glitches that happened due to the ongoingdevelopment of Rayyan, it did help four authors work together on this project and collateinclusion results.While working through the

Turpen’s work involves designing and researching contexts for learn- ing within higher education (for both students and faculty). Her research draws from perspectives in an- thropology, cultural psychology, and the learning sciences. Through in-situ studies of classroom practice and institutional practice, she focuses on the role of culture in science learning and educational change. She pursues projects that have high potential for leveraging equitable change in undergraduate STEM pro- grams and she makes these struggles for change a direct focus of her research efforts. She also serves on several national
