The DBF experience (rocket flight) isscaffolded, leveraging traditional systems engineering and integrated vehicle design approachesdetailed in lecture with hands-on laboratory experiences utilizing experimental measurement,computational simulation, scale flight tests, and prototyping. These experiences foster skills whichnecessarily build upon each other giving the students sufficient tools to design and build their ownrocket in the final six weeks of the course. Each of the individual laboratory projects culminate ina laboratory

: How can we incorporate virtual technologies as a part of effectivepedagogy?3. Course ContextAt Purdue University School of Aeronautics and Astronautics, we have two aerospace structurescourses that use VLs: AAE 20401 Aeromechanics II and AAE 35201 Structural Analysis I. ForAAE 20401, please review our previous publication [1] on how we implemented the VLs. In thesection below, we will talk about AAE 35201 VL implementation that occurred during theSpring 2020 semester (January 2020–May 2020). The lecture for the AAE 35201 lab course iscalled AAE 35200, which is described in the separate publications [15], [16].Description of the CourseAAE 35201, Structural Analysis I, is a one-credit laboratory (lab) course in aerospace structuralmechanics at

function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives [6]Programs necessarily define points within the curriculum where these outcomes are included incoursework. In some cases, these are included in coursework in ways where there may not be anatural fit in a typical lecture or lecture/laboratory course, or that appear to be contrived.Teamwork may consist of students put into groups based on proximity, with minimal instructionin how to effectively operate as a team; while this is indeed working within a group, it isarguably not effective teamwork [7]-[9]. Effective communication often consists of in-classpresentations

c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 A Program for Managing Unmanned Aircraft Systems in Engineering Education ABSTRACTUnmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) are an increasingly important aspect of technology. As aresult, they have become a very important tool in engineering education for a variety ofdisciplines. While many physical laboratories or training aids have regulatory and administrativerequirements, the considerations related to UAS are multifaceted and include Federal AviationRegulations, airspace requirements, and privacy considerations. Furthermore, UAS pose aphysical hazard that must be taken into account to protect students, staff, faculty, and

During the summer of 2015, Lucia had the opportunity to work at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. From August 2015 to May 2016, Lucia completed her PhD research in absentia. In May 2016, she earned her doctorate for her research on transfer options linking the Earth, Moon, and the triangular libration points in the Earth-Moon system. As a graduate student, Lucia taught for Purdue University’s First-Year Engineering department. Today Lucia resides and teaches engineering in the Bay Area as an assistant professor of aerospace engineering at San Jose State University
