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

SUMMARY:Re-taping of Business Indystry Leadership Team (BILT) Session 1
DESCRIPTION:The Business & Industry Leadership Team Model (BILT) is an employer high-engagement model for college programs\, projects\, and grants that originated with the NSF National Convergence Technology Center (DUE 1700530) in the early 2000s. 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

SUMMARY:VR Simulations for Teaching Nanotechnology Instrumentation
DESCRIPTION:Virtual reality is an attractive method of teaching to younger students interested in technical education\, and it is very effective for exposing students to new instruments and processes in a safe\, low-cost and low-risk environment. This 4-hour workshop will bring together some of the experts working in this field who have designed\, built\, and used these modules for teaching students how to use instruments of nanotechnology. Design considerations and strategies will be discussed. Results of using VR simulations as laboratory aids will be presented\, as well as experiences with industry outreach. There will also be presentations of recent research\,  technology\, and outreach work from industry and academia. \nRegister at: https://uvu.edu/physics/nanotech/workshop/ \nZoom links for this virtual workshop will be sent via email to registered participants on the evening of 13 May.

SUMMARY:SEMI Certification Model - MNT-EC partners
DESCRIPTION:This one-day workshop will introduce the specific Certification Model developed by SEMI-Cert and NEATEC for technician education programs (A.A.S\, A.O.S.\, BS) – Intended for Community College or four-year colleges with technical programs that are willing to determine if SEMI Certification is appropriate to their programs. \nInstructor: Abe Michelen \nPurpose: Expand the reach and impact of the SEMI-Cert Center to regions in the U.S outside New York State in support of proposed MNT-EC Center. \nThis one-day workshop will introduce the specific Certification Model developed by SEMI-Cert and NEATEC for technician education programs (A.A.S\, A.O.S.\, BS) \n\nGeneral Intro and Overview: 9:00am-10:30 PST\nInvite Hands-on Session: 12:00pm-1:30pm PST\n\nSEMI / NEATEC Process\nThe SEMI / NEATEC Certification Process profiles courses and programs to determine alignment with industry requirements. These educational competencies are compared to the SEMI/NEATEC Unified Competency Model (UCM)\, which is maintained by industry through a SEMI facilitated process. Once a course or a program is profiled\, the course and/or program data are added to the SEMI Works™Portal. The SEMI Works™ Portal uses the data to match those seeking training to providers. \nActivities\n\nReview partner technician education programs to check if these programs align with the Proficiency-driven Academic Alignment Program (AAP) developed by SEMI-Cert. \n\nBenefits\n\nGreater alignment between courses and industry requirements.\nThe ability to match courses to those seeking training.\nImproved marketing and increased awareness of aligned courses by individuals and employers.\n\n

SUMMARY:Introduction to the Arduino Microcontroller
DESCRIPTION:May 31\, 2021 – 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM\nJune 1\, 2021 – 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM \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. There will be a max of 15 participants. \nPresenter: Abe Michelen \nArduino is “an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible\, easy-to-use hardware and software\,” it is a popular open-source electronic board that is capable of controlling just about any hardware project. This two-day short course will introduce you to the Arduino world. \nActivities\nSeveral full projects will be introduced that you can use in your classroom activities. An Arduino board and a set of components will be distributed to the participants to be used in classes or hands-on activities. \n\nProgramming the Arduino. A general introduction to the C/C++ language (the language of the Arduino) will be covered. \nThe first activities will use LEDs to learn how to control external devices with the Arduino.\nMore advance activities. Once you know how to control LEDs and other basic components we will introduce several types of sensors and actuators and will program the microcontroller interact (read and write) with and control them.  Some of the actuators and sensors we will Some of the actuators and sensors we will use include:  Switches\, Potentiometers\, RGB LEDs\, Temperature sensors\, humidity sensors\, Optical sensors\, Distance ultrasonic sensors\, LCD displays\, Dot Matrix displays\, Servo motors\, DC motors\, Buzzers.
