An Analysis of Factors Impacting Design Self-Efficacy of Senior Design Students

In many engineering senior design programs, students are taught an engineering design process that they apply to a real-world, engineering design problem.This study examined how different factors from that experience impact a student's design self-efficacy, or their belief in their own ability to complete engineering design tasks.Self-efficacy has been shown to influence a person's actions, where those with higher self-efficacy will challenge themselves with higher goals and increased persistence and perseverance after experiencing setbacks.The increased effort, perseverance, and persistence results in an increased likelihood that the person will successfully achieve their goal.The mechanical engineering students surveyed here complete a two-semester senior design program, working in teams to complete an open-ended design project.Each project is different, resulting in a different senior design experience; however, the goal of the program is to graduate mechanical engineers with high design self-efficacy.This study collected 491 student exit survey responses over the course of five semesters to investigate the impact of student project experience on four design self-efficacy self-concepts (confidence, motivation, success, and anxiety).Seven factors were used to determine differences between student experiences: gender, project sponsor type, project validation method used, average weekly effort expended outside of class, project satisfaction, project sponsor satisfaction, and sponsor guidance provided.The analysis found that student effort and overall project satisfaction were related to the design selfefficacy self-concept scores, although gender, validation method, and amount of sponsor guidance were not.The results suggest that the type of project given to the students has less impact on self-efficacy than how the students choose to work with it.The study's outcomes will be used to direct future senior design program management and guide further research towards improving student outcomes.
Analysis of Online Consumer Behavior - Design of CRISP-DM Process Model

The basis of the modern marketing of a business entity is to know the behavior of its customers. Advanced artificial intelligence methods, such as data mining and machine learning methods, penetrate data analysis. The application of these methods is most appropriate in the case of online sales of any goods in large quantities and various industries. They are very often used in the sale of electronics, PCs or clothes. However, it is also possible to apply them to the agricultural industry, not only in B2C, but also in B2B in the sale of seeds, agricultural products, or agricultural machinery. Appropriate combinations of offers and knowledge of customers can bring the selling entity higher profits or competitive advantages. The main goal of our study is to design a CRISP-DM process model that will enable small businesses to analyze online customers' behavior. To reach the main goal we perform a data analysis of the online sales data by using machine learning methods as clustering, decision tree and association rules mining. After evaluating the proposed model, we discuss its use of the proposed model in the field of internet sales in the agricultural sector.
Waveform cross-correlation-based earthquake detection applied to microseismicity near the central Alpine Fault, New Zealand

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The Alpine Fault is a major plate boundary oblique strike-slip fault, known to fail in large M 7-8 earthquakes, posing a significant seismic hazard to southern and central New Zealand. The central part of the Alpine Fault exhibits low seismic activity when compared to adjacent areas. We have examined the smaller-magnitude earthquake activity occurring along the central portion of the Alpine Fault using data from five temporary seismic networks from late 2008 to early 2017.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;We have created the most complete and accurate earthquake catalog at the central Alpine Fault to date (9,111 earthquake locations with magnitudes ranging from M&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;L&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; -1.2 to 4.6). We used this catalog as templates with a matched-filtering earthquake detection method and further extend the earthquake catalog. This even more comprehensive earthquake catalog will provide more definitive evidence for the seismicity characteristics observed and better insights into the fault zone&amp;amp;#8217;s geometry.&amp;amp;#160;&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Taking advantage of this extensive earthquake catalog, we also aim to examine whether there are any repeating highly similar seismic signals (repeating earthquakes). These repeating earthquakes can potentially help better determine the locked and creeping sections of the Alpine Fault and possibly quantify the total amount of creep taking place with respect to seismic deformation.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;
Phenomenon That Happened in Assessment of Education World

The phenomenon that occurs in the world of education lately many models and kinds, massive in the Western hemisphere including the United States, the role and function as educators such as teachers, has been largely replaced by a quantitative assessment machine alone, by not considering other aspects of teaching practice in a manner comprehensive, mastery aspects in the field of science and professionalism of educators, both in the form of transfer of knowledge to students ,and in the form of scientific practice in the field in accordance with the theme and topic of discussion of the science being taught, why did it happen ... usually due to certain political interests of the person who disagreed with the teaching teacher profession or other factors that did not support it, so impressed the educated as marginalized in practice daily by the cukong-cukong rulers, who are less concerned with the fate of educators ,and the world of education in general.

STUDENTS’ ABILITY IN UNDERSTANDING DANGLING MODIFIERS AT UNIVERSITAS NEGERI PADANG

Dangling modifiers is a problem in sentence structure where there is a mismatch between what the writer or speaker means and what the reader or listener means. This problem will certainly cause a misunderstanding. This study aimed to determine the ability of students to understand dangling modifiers and find out the types of dangling modifiers that were most frequently answered incorrectly by students. This research is a descriptive quantitative study. The population of this study was 35 students from K-2017 English Language Education. Samples were taken using the stratified cluster sampling method. Data were collected through grammar test. The data were given a general score and each part of the test is designed to determine students' ability in understanding dangling modifiers. It was found that the ability of third-year students to understand dangling modifiers was poor because the average score was 49. To find out the type of dangling modifiers that were most answered incorrectly, each answer error in each type of dangling modifiers would be added so that found 55% errors in dangling elliptical clause type. It can be concluded that students need to be aware of logic and illogical sentences (dangling modifiers).

A rack-aware scalable resource management system for Hadoop YARN

Big data have brought in an era of data exploration and utilisation with MapReduce computational paradigm as its major enabler. Though great efforts through the implementation of Hadoop have made computation scale to tens of thousands of commodity cluster processors, the centralised architecture of resource manager has adversely affected response time in large data centres. The developed model decouples the responsibilities of resource manager by providing another layer where each daemon called rack unit resource manager (RU_RM) carries out the responsibility of allocating resources to compute nodes within its local rack to ensure low latency for large files. The application was developed and tested with Hadoop workload benchmarks used for analysis. Two performance evaluation metrics (efficiency and average task-delay ratio) were used for comparison. Efficiency quantifies average cluster utilisation while average task-delay ratio measures average delay time. Results obtained showed that as file size increases, the developed model outperforms the existing framework.
Building academics’ foreign-language communicative competence in scientific areas

The paper raises the problem of building the communicative competence of academics. Analysis of the theoretical material of the research helps further investigate the process of learning a foreign language by postgraduates within departmental educational milieu and define the foreign-language communicative competence of a research academician. In accordance with the logic of the presented research, the author uses a complex of complementary methods. They are theoretical research (systematic and theoretical analysis, studying the references in Pedagogy and Methodology of teaching a foreign language, comparative analysis of the Russian and foreign experience, considers the peculiarities of the content of research academicians training in a foreign language), pedagogical research (discussion, supervision, interview). The author stresses the necessity to improve the substantive component of foreign language training of the researcher, taking into account the professional orientation, the use of professional terminology by those who are engaged in research activities. That makes them capable of doing interpretation, précis-writing and abstracting scientific papers in English, thus building their foreign-language communicative competence. The author concludes that in the educational process it is advisable to use a manual, an interactive dictionary and a thesaurus for the successful organization of the process of building the foreign-language communicative competence of the research academician. The content of the materials mentioned above should be aimed at forming postgraduates’ readiness to participate in Russian and international research teams and use modern scientific terminology in a foreign language in various international scientific and representative conferences.
Neural Nets Distributed on Microcontrollers using Metaheuristic Parallel Optimization Algorithm

Metaheuristic algorithms are powerful methods for solving compute intensive problems. neural Networks, when trained well, are great at prediction and classification type of problems. Backpropagation is the most popular method utilized to obtain the weights of Neural Nets though it has some limitations of slow convergence and getting stuck in a local minimum. In order to overcome these limitations, in this paper, a hybrid method combining the parallel distributed bat algorithm with backpropagation is proposed to compute the weights of the Neural Nets. The aim is to use the hybrid method in applications of a distributed nature. Our study uses the Matlab® software and Arduino® microcontrollers as a testbed. To test the performance of the testbed, an application in the area of speech recognition is carried out. Due to the resource limitations of Arduino microcontrollers, the core speech pre-processing of LPC (linear predictive coding) feature extractions are done in Matlab® and only the LPC parameters are passed to the Neural Nets, which are implemented on Arduino microcontrollers. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme does produce promising results.

A Proposed User Requirements Document for Children’s Learning Application

User requirements are the highest level of requirements.Flawed user requirements document can cause defects in the software being built-aspects of applications that were not presented in the user requirements document to cause a defect.In learning applications for children, there are aspects of pedagogy that need to be well documented.This aspect is not available in the general user requirements document, so it is often not well presented.The learning style and thinking skills level is crucial to be well presented in the user requirements document.That was because the children's persona cannot be compared at every range criteria of developmental age.That factor will undoubtedly affect the specifications of the software to be built.Users' viewpoints about different requirements can also make developers wrong in determining requirements.Applying requirements prioritization in the user requirements document can help resolve the problem.Measurement of document quality was also performed using parameters in measuring the quality of the user requirements document.The results of measuring the quality of the user requirements document found that it is reliable for use.
Cybersecurity Workforce Development in Minority, Low Income, and Native American Reservation Communities

This study will explore an innovative approach to cybersecurity workforce development in low income, minority, and Native American reservation communities in a way that could address low living wages and high unemployment while meeting cyber workforce demands. In the efforts to build a robust talent pipeline, there is a critical need for innovative practices to educate the future cyber professions in underserved diverse communities. Systemically, diverse communities have been untapped, ignored, and undervalued for technical job opportunities. This study looks at using charter schools with minority demographics that should have advanced technology programs that address a colossal workforce development need in the U.S. by training future cyber professionals on the high school level.
Examining the rhetorical capacities of neural language models

Recently, neural language models (LMs) have demonstrated impressive abilities in generating high-quality discourse. While many recent papers have analyzed the syntactic aspects encoded in LMs, there has been no analysis to date of the inter-sentential, rhetorical knowledge. In this paper, we propose a method that quantitatively evaluates the rhetorical capacities of neural LMs. We examine the capacities of neural LMs understanding the rhetoric of discourse by evaluating their abilities to encode a set of linguistic features derived from Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST). Our experiments show that BERT-based LMs outperform other Transformer LMs, revealing the richer discourse knowledge in their intermediate layer representations. In addition, GPT-2 and XLNet apparently encode less rhetorical knowledge, and we suggest an explanation drawing from linguistic philosophy. Our method shows an avenue towards quantifying the rhetorical capacities of neural LMs.
Animated Gif Optimization By Adaptive Color Local Table Management

After thirty years of the GIF file format, today is becoming more popular than ever: being a great way of communication for friends and communities on Instant Messengers and Social Networks. While being so popular, the original compression method to encode GIF images have not changed a bit. On the other hand popularity means that storage saving becomes an issue for hosting platforms. In this paper a parametric optimization technique for animated GIFs will be presented. The proposed technique is based on Local Color Table selection and color remapping in order to create optimized animated GIFs while preserving the original format. The technique achieves good results in terms of byte reduction with limited or no loss of perceived color quality. Tests carried out on 1000 GIF files demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed optimization strategy.
