Instead of using a lecture onlystyle of teaching, the Six Sigma methodology was applied during a course project. Over aperiod of seven weeks, the students learned and practiced Six Sigma theory and processes.They followed the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) process toimprove a given design. Six Sigma tools such as Critical to Quality (CTQ), QualityFunction Deployment (QFD), Failure Mode Effects and Analysis (FMEA) and CriticalPath Method (CPM) were introduced to the students.

Joshua Pippin and Julie Wang Frostburg State UniversityAbstractSince the need for alternate power sources is becoming more prevalent with each newday, a decision was made to work on the research and design for a laboratory-scale windturbine as an undergraduate research project. As such, the main goal of the project was tocreate advancements in wind power technologies. The objective of this research was todesign and build a wind turbine for experimental tests. Two different wind turbine bladesare tested on the model of the wind turbine. These results will further research that canhelp develop less expensive and smaller turbines that can be used in homes and farms.IntroductionThe challenge for this research project

This approach was adopted from Singham2 “to model the exhilaration of thelife of the mind” rather than to stifle innovation through a “rigid rule-infested, watertightsyllabus.” Opinions of senior ECET faculty were elicited to insure our students could handle thechallenge.The tentative course schedule is presented in figure 1.

Assessing a team’s project results is usually a relatively easy task.However, fairly assessing the performance of individual students within the team is much moredifficult. The complexity of the assessment task is compounded by the wide range of subjects,difficulty, and engineering tasks involved in differing projects. Assessing engineeringperformance across a variety of projects is also a common problem for most industrialemployers. Many companies that employ engineers use a management-by-objective (MBO)assessment system for their professional employees.

needed to intuit theelegant solution directly, but it was not until I embraced the use of procedure that I reallydeveloped what I now consider to be my expertise in mechanics. I suspect that forreasons ranging from laziness to sincere sense of requirement and curiosity, studentscircumvent the application of procedure and attempt to identify a simple concept (whichoften corresponds to a simple formula) to solve a problem. Page 13.226.7I also remember very clearly a poignant incident that further illustrates the distinctionbetween procedure and concept22.

importance of validation in a lab-setting. It can be saidthat it is even more important in academics because students are at the initial phase of theirengineering formation. Towards that end, a project involving flexible elements, such as hosesand cables, was utilized to get students involved in a validation exercise.Flexible elements are absolutely essential to the safe and successful operation of any vehicle, butthey are often difficult to design and define because they are subject to large elastic deformationsand because of their potential collisions with other components. This combination of factorsleaves flexible elements to be rushed into production near the end of a design cycle. Therefore, incollaboration between industry and academia, a CAE
