Redesigning The Razor Scooter, Sky Comarsh White, Tucker Hawkinson, Kaijus Palm, Ambrose Contreras

ASEE EDGD Midyear Conference

The Razor A-Type Foldable Kick Scooter was designed to improve the safety and maneuverability for the user. After research and consumer input, it was deemed most important to include an attached cup holder to allow the rider to use both hands since instability is a major issue while riding the scooter. This addition increases balance and the safety for the constomer. The base was then run through Inspire, an optimization program. After several tests and load cases, Vulcan Engineering found that the original base was just as, if not, more safe than the redesigned part proving both to be sufficient, …

Enhancing The Novice Optical Telescope, Karen Maurer, Haoran Deng, Hunter Magill

ASEE EDGD Midyear Conference

This project attempts to visualize and model modifications to the Tasco "Novice" telescope in order to provide users more convenience and comfort. While the small personal telescope was functional, there were some limitations that could be a hindrance to users. The telescope originally contained a tripod that could not collapse completely for transportation and storage due to a triangular accessory stand located between the legs. The telescope also did not include lenses that provided users with a place to rest their face against the eyepiece at the appropriate distance from the lens for viewing; thus, users often struggled to readjust …

The Re-Designed Lego, Connor Powers, Renee Spear, Derek Wood, Abhimanyu Harish

ASEE EDGD Midyear Conference

Our team's goal is to redesign and improve upon the Lego brick. We believe that Legos are an incredible outlet for creativity for all ages, but as builders grow older and more experienced with Lego construction the complexity that stimulates the creative mind begins to dwindle. To remedy this issue, we re-designed traditional Lego bricks to have stronger links between pieces as well as greater constructive maneuverability. Our improved Lego aims to benefit the community of Lego enthusiasts that create grand complex structures. The new Lego allows for more defined features in large builds and greater structural integrity in all …

Increased Social Functioning In Children With Asd Through Video-Modeling, Kassandra Walters, Paige Peterson, Molly Hallead

Fall Interdisciplinary Research Symposium

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is characterized by deficits in social functioning; particularly by impairments in reciprocal pretend play and social interaction. The effectiveness of many behavioral techniques in addressing these deficits has been examined. One technique, video-modeling, has enhanced functioning in a variety of social behavior categories (MacDonald, Sacramone, Mansfield, Wiltz, and Ahearn, 2009). Indeed, Charlop-Christy, Le, and Freeman (2000) have indicated that video modeling, when compared to in vivo modeling, leads to faster acquisition of new skills. The current study explored the effectiveness of video modeling in teaching appropriate responding in cooperative game situations which include unpredictable, unscripted elements. …

Day 26 Apr 28 Student poster session

WELCOME to WINDOWS on the INQUIRY CLASSROOM!

You have landed on a piece of a National Science Foundation Project (DUE 1245730) directed by Professor Chris Bauer, Chemistry Department, University of New Hampshire. This is one part of a completely documented inquiry-based university science course called “Fire & Ice” which explores the nature of heat and temperature. There are multiple video perspectives and commentary from instructors and students, and documents of all course materials (agenda, instructions, student work). It’s too complicated to explain here. Take a look at the user orientation document at this link.
