Please email Billie Copley – billie@micronanoeducation.org with your mailing address\, US residents only. There will be a max of 15 participants for this session. \nRegister at https://cccconfer.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwtdOyvqz8vHdzQq4gS3lkpaW4buNrV3fo3 \nBasics General content you will learn in this workshop: \n\nHow to install the PI\, and learn about the inner working of the Raspberry Pi system?\nHow to program with Python? The best way to program the RPi is with Python. We will spend some time to introduce the attendees to the basic Python language.\nUse the General Purpose Input-Output pins (GPIO) to interface with other hardware / sensors / electronics devices.\nSome sensors used:\n\nLEDs\nTemperature and humidity sensors.\nLCD displays\n\n\nSome projects:\n\nVNC for the Raspberry PI (remote access)\nRPi Oscilloscope\nKodi on the Raspberry PI (home theater) – if time permits\nMotion Sensor with the PI – if times permits URL:https://staging.micronanoeducation.org/event/mnt-ec-workshop-introduction-to-raspberry-pi/2021-07-12/ CATEGORIES:Workshop END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210706T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210706T150000 DTSTAMP:20260604T060939 CREATED:20210604T185247Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210702T132914Z UID:501364-1625562000-1625583600@staging.micronanoeducation.org SUMMARY:Introduction to the Arduino DESCRIPTION:Abe Michelen\, SUNY Polytechnic Institute\, New York \nThis two-day short course will introduce you to the Arduino world. Participants will learn how to program the Arduino and do some easy activities and move into more advanced activities. Supplies will be shipped to participants ahead of time. \nPlease email Billie Copley – billie@micronanoeducation.org with your mailing address – US residents only.  \nFor US based participants\, there is a $500 stipend for completing this workshop. There will be a max of 15 participants.  \nThis workshop is full. Thank you for your interest.

The model is widely used to deepen employer involvement in educational programs producing such benefits as curriculum better-aligned to meet employer needs\, increased support for recruitment of students\, and others. The two webinars on March 16 and 24 together will provide high-level coverage of the many specifics that make the model work. The origins of the BILT will be explained to set context; key details ranging from employer recruitment to using a structured\, repeatable process for the employers to prioritize the Knowledge\, Skills\, and Abilities desired in the “workforce-ready” graduates in the future will be explained; model variants for colleges\, NSF ATE projects\, and NSF ATE Centers will be discussed; resources will be identified; and questions will be answered. \nPresenter: Ann Beheler URL:https://staging.micronanoeducation.org/event/re-taping-of-business-indystry-leadership-team-bilt-session-1/ LOCATION:Indian Hills Community College\, 525 Grandview Ave\, Ottumwa\, IA\, 52501\, United States CATEGORIES:Webinar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210505T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210505T120000 DTSTAMP:20260604T060939 CREATED:20210219T231318Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210430T171244Z UID:501019-1620212400-1620216000@staging.micronanoeducation.org SUMMARY:Launching the Journal of Micro Nano Technology Education at MNT-EC DESCRIPTION:It has long been said that at four-year institutions\, faculty have to publish or perish; at two-year institutions that requirement is not as stringent but could be helpful to faculty progression. The MNT-EC Journal Working Group would like to help faculty at a two-year institution become more familiar on how to do research and write a journal article for publication. As faculty at two-year institutes increase their familiarity in this area\, they can share this experience with their students. The students can gain research and writing skills that can serve them if they choose to transfer to a four-year institution. \nPresenters: \n\nPeter Kazarinoff\, Co-PI of the MNT-EC and faculty at Portland Community College\nNeda Habibi\, Co-PI of MNT-Ec and faculty at Northwest Vista College\n Atilla Cakmak URL:https://staging.micronanoeducation.org/event/peer-review-journal-writing-workshop/ LOCATION:Indian Hills Community College\, 525 Grandview Ave\, Ottumwa\, IA\, 52501\, United States CATEGORIES:Workshop END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210324T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210324T120000 DTSTAMP:20260604T060939 CREATED:20210219T230821Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210223T222957Z UID:501015-1616583600-1616587200@staging.micronanoeducation.org SUMMARY:Business Industry Leadership Team (BILT) part B DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Ann Beheler URL:https://staging.micronanoeducation.org/event/business-indystry-leadership-team-bilt-part-b/ LOCATION:Indian Hills Community College\, 525 Grandview Ave\, Ottumwa\, IA\, 52501\, United States CATEGORIES:Meeting END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210316T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210316T120000 DTSTAMP:20260604T060939 CREATED:20210219T230130Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210223T222952Z UID:501010-1615892400-1615896000@staging.micronanoeducation.org SUMMARY:Business Industry Leadership Team (BILT) DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Ann Beheler URL:https://staging.micronanoeducation.org/event/business-indystry-leadership-team-bilt/ LOCATION:Indian Hills Community College\, 525 Grandview Ave\, Ottumwa\, IA\, 52501\, United States CATEGORIES:Meeting END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
