Cyance ROV Team: Technical Report
This 19-page report, from Cyance, a division of Atlantis S.T.E.A.M, describes the design and construction of the underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) created by the Cyance ROV Team for the Ranger Class of the 2023 MATE ROV competition. MATE ROV is a global competition that challenges STEM students to build underwater ROVs to complete challenges. The competition is split into the following classes based on build complexity: Explorer, Ranger, Pioneer, Navigator, and Scout.The report begins with an abstract introducing Cyance ROV Team and their ROV followed by a discussion of project management and company organization. The design rationale section provides an overview of the construction of the ROV, followed by buyoancy and ballast, and payload and tools. Also covered is building versus buying parts, buying new versus used parts, budget, problem solving, and acknowledgments. A safety checklist and systems integration diagram (SID) are included.Manuals for each competition class and technical reports from other teams are available to view separately

Where Electricity and Light Meet: The Power of Infrared Spectroelectrochemical Techniques in Observing Surface Chemistry
In this video from the Nanotechnology Application and Career Knowledge Support Center (NACK Center), 4th-year graduate student Yuja Zhai (Jerry) discusses a spectroscopic technique. This "technique [is] based on infrared spectroscopy that can be used to characterize the chemical species adsorbed on the electrode surfaces and provide ample information about the changes in the structures of adsorbed species under different conditions." During some key moments of the video, the presenter discusses what electrochemistry is, surface enhancement principles, and observation of different carbon dioxide reduction mechanisms on different metals.The video runs 46:36 minutes in length. An audio recording and presentation slides are also included

Infrastructure KSAs 2023
The National Convergence Technology Center (CTC) Business and Industry Leadership Team (BILT) has compiled this list of KSAs (knowledge, skills, and abilities) for entry-level IT infrastructure workers in 2023. These KSAs are essential for workers to acquire over a 12-36 month period. Annually, the CTC's BILT meets in May to revise the list, aiming to assist educators in aligning their curricula with industry demands. A .pdf is also available, detailing how to access a local copy of the KSA list as a Google Sheet. This allows colleges to collaborate with local BILT members, facilitating voting and amendments. Another .pdf includes a KSA invitation script template with tips, along with PowerPoint slides designed for the BILT Annual KSA Meeting. These slides incorporate guidelines for virtual participation, voting procedures, and discussion etiquette.For orientation purposes the BILT KSA spreadsheet - Fall 2023 revision final.pdf is included as a separate attachment and offers a sample of the type of material included in this module.Below is a list of the files included in the .zip attachment.
