pedagogical tool to teachfreshmen engineering students about electromagnetism. A quasi-experimental design was used tocompare students who used visual-only simulations to those who used visuohaptic. Wehypothesized that multimodal presentation of information may lead to better conceptualunderstanding of electromagnetism compared to visual presentation alone.A class of 77 electrical engineering technology students from six different laboratory sessionsparticipated in the study. Laboratory sessions were randomly divided into two groups: a controlgroup with only visual simulations and an experimental group with visual simulations plus hapticfeedback. Learning was assessed qualitatively and quantitatively.Overall results on the pretest and posttest

In a regular quarter, the course typically has 150 to 250 registered studentsencompassing freshmen to fifth year seniors, resulting in a wide distribution of the studentdemographic. ENG6 is a platform that allows the largest number of students to be reached in theshortest amount time.In ENG6, four major components determine a student’s grade: weekly homework assignments,weekly computer laboratory sessions, two projects, and a final exam. Homework assignments aredesigned to help student mastery of technical programming concepts and MATLAB languagemechanics. The multiple choice final exam is employed to test student understanding offundamental MATLAB programming concepts. Lab sessions in traditional offerings are optionaland are

Capstone Design ProjectsAt Clarkson we have an ABET accredited degree program in Computer Engineering witha senior design experience that requires teams of students to design, build, test anddemonstrate a fully functional embedded system. The course is a one semester, six-credithour course with both scheduled lecture and laboratory time. For the past two years wehave used the Freescale Cup platform as the basis for student projects in this course. Wediscuss our course objectives, the Freescale Cup car platform, our assessment process,and we present assessment data from these past two years.

Studies show that an increasing percentage of students are drawn towards topics related tosustainability.2 Regardless of these changes, one thing that remains true is that small engineeringdepartments, particularly departments housed in small liberal arts colleges, are faced withadditional challenges. These challenges include working with limited resources (budget,laboratory space, equipment) and the necessity for the instructor to supervise projects outside ofhis or her area of expertise. Thus, it can be difficult to develop capstone project ideas that arerealizable in this setting. We believe the Hybrid Solar Tracker project was an

The balance of the system included the number of the components that go intothe system. For both devices, two separate laboratory environments were created to measure thepower outputs and efficiencies. Both devices were tested at different locations due to operatingenvironments were not similar.
