Queries for criminal law searches declined slightly by 2% overall last quarter compared to the same period last year. Mobile searches grew by 16% while desktop searches declined by 12% and tablet searches fell by 4%. Advertising metrics such as impressions, clicks and average cost-per-click also changed over this period with clicks increasing by 12% but impressions declining by 7%. The proportion of searches conducted on mobile devices continues to grow and now accounts for 48% of all criminal law searches.

Tenughat Thermal Power Station (TTPS) is a 420MW power plant located in Jharkhand, India. It requires approximately 7000 metric tons of coal per day supplied by nearby mines. The plant uses a coal handling system to transport coal to two 210MW boiler and turbine units, which generate power that is stepped up and transmitted via a switchyard. Key components include the coal crushing and conveying system, boilers that convert water to steam, steam turbines that drive generators to produce electricity, and an electrostatic precipitator for reducing emissions. During training, the author learned about plant operations and management.

This document summarizes the research projects and methods of the Research in Feminist Engineering (RIFE) group. The group investigates four main projects using both quantitative and qualitative methods: 1) the career pathways of women faculty in STEM using oral histories and participatory research, 2) the impact of policies on work-life balance using policy texts and interviews, 3) understanding institutional climate through robust survey instruments, and 4) assessing sustainability knowledge in engineering students through interviews and expert workshops. The group aims to broaden conversations about engineering using feminist lenses even when not obvious and argues for social change through applied research.

This project summary outlines a 6th grade STEM project at Toledo Elementary School to design and build an outdoor learning lab. The students went on a field trip to Forest Park to kick off the project where they learned forestry skills. Their driving question was how to design a learning lab for their community around the school playground. Working in groups, the students researched native plants and designed a scaled map for trails and planting areas. They also monitored the site over time. As a result, the students received and planted over 200 trees and shrubs to create the outdoor learning lab.

This poster presentation discusses using 3D laser scanning technology to create digital anatomical replicas for use as interactive learning objects in distance education settings. Such replicas allow students to investigate anatomical structures from multiple angles simultaneously, unlike 2D images. The presentation aims to demonstrate how 3D scanning can enhance engagement for online anatomy students and to discuss potential applications in other distance courses. Attendees will learn about 3D scanning techniques and their uses in distance education, see examples of 3D scans on an iPad, and discuss how to apply this knowledge in their own teaching.
