Thin Film Deposition of Aluminum with Affordable Rough Vacuum Thermal Evaporator
This presentation, published by Erie Community College, was presented at the 2023 High Impact Technology Conference and focuses on building a curriculum to train technicians proficient in vacuum technology for the semiconductor industry. After discussing the curriculum, the presentation uses images to provide an overview of the components and function of the Rough Vacuum System Equipment Trainer (RVET), an affordable vacuum system model intended for classroom use. Additionally, the use of aluminum thin film in the RVET is discussed.The PowerPoint is split into the following sections:Projects Background and MotivationRough Vacuum Equipment Trainer (RVET)Adding Thin Film Evaporation Functionality to RVETDemonstration of Aluminum Thin Film DepositionRoom for ImprovementData and Data AnalysisLaboratory ExperimentsConclusionMaterial from the curriculum discussed in the presentation, such as the E-book, laboratory manuals, learning activities, and videos, are available to view separately
Algebraic Manipulation (Part 2 of 2)
This video from Columbia Gorge Community College is part two of two videos that "review the process of algebraic manipulation whereby known properties are used to solve for unknown properties." A knowledge of the order of operations, negative and fractional exponents, and scientific calculators is required to understand the content in this video. Algebraic equations are explored in the context of electric circuits. The video recording runs 12:09 minutes in length
Unit Conversion (Part 2 of 2)
During this lesson, published by Columbia Gorge Community College, viewers will learn to express a given quantity using different systems of units. The lecture begins with an introduction to the concept of converting quantities to desired systems of units. A list of equivalencies for different quantities, including power, pressure, volume, time, angle, and length are given. The lecture then illustrates examples of unit conversion for various quantities. Examples include conversions between watts, horsepower, foot-pounds force per second, bars, kilopascals, psi, gallons, cubic inches, weeks, and more. Throughout the lecture, emphasis is put on the importance of proper engineering format and accurate representation of units to avoid errors.This video runs 11:01 minutes in length. The first part of the video is available to view separately.&nbsp
MNT-CURN Seminar Series: Antibody Engineers - Antibody Hackathon
This video is part of a series from the Micro Nano Technology Education Center's (MNT-EC) Micro Nano Technology Collaborative Undergraduate Research Network (MNT-CURN) Research Program. In this program, students gain hands-on research experience and build nanotechnology technical education skills. Throughout this video series, viewers "... will hear and see nanotechnology and microtechnology professors presenting about their own research and work -- from biosensors to underwater drones to nanomaterials." Each video covers a different specialty that students may want to learn about and pursue as an undergraduate research project.During this video, Sandra Porter provides information about a hackathon related to antibody engineering. Porter discusses the importance of antibodies in biotechnology, their various applications, and the opportunities offered by hackathons. The presentation emphasizes the value of gaining skills in computational thinking, programming, and scientific literacy while encouraging participation in hackathons and research projects.&nbsp
Understanding Wine Phenolic Structure and Color Stability
This webinar from Bucher Vaslin North America explores red wine phenolic structure and color stability. In the video, Eglantine Chauffour highlights phenolic compounds, the chemistry of color stability, reasons for using sacrificial tannins, the optimization of phenolic extraction in the winemaking process, proactive color stabilization, and the improvement of wine aging potential. The video recording runs 50:33 minutes in length
DNA Automation with Nano-Structured Ceramics
In this video from the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Support Center, Mario Blanco explores fully synthetic oligonucleotides and how the use of nano-structured ceramic films enables the synthesis of hundreds of DNA genes in gram quantities overnight. Furthermore, Blanco describes how these nano-structured ceramics can be manufactured without the use of expensive, highly backlogged, nanofabs through the use of conventional physical and chemical means. DNA synthesis automation and its goals, nanometers, Nanopec, DNAReax, and more are highlighted.The video recording runs 49:33 minutes in length. An audio recording and presentation slides are also provided
Delivery and Impact of Teacher Professional Development Workshops
This 12-page paper, presented at the ASEE Annual Conference, examines the implementation of a series of energy technology teacher professional development workshops that were delivered virtually using online meeting apps. The results of the workshops are presented including participant measures of learning gains, and feedback describing how faculty participants used the information gained to modify their curriculum and instruction. The discussion includes observations and recommended practices to promote the effective incorporation of tools and equipment for remotely delivered workshops
Gameful Mentorship
This presentation from the National Convergence Technology Center took place at the online Winter Working Connections professional development event. In the video, Taylor Slocum describes the Gameful Mentorship program at Columbus State Community College. The program emphasizes learning through gamification, which is the application of game-design elements for non-game concepts. Throughout the program, students play games where they learn and apply career competencies, as well as network with industry professionals. Slocum explores a virtual escape room activity for technical interview and teambuilding practice, a shark tank activity for practicing an elevator pitch, and a Jeopardy activity for technical interviewing. The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) career competencies are also highlighted. The video recording runs 31:07 minutes in length
