The primary hypothesis of the research study is as follows:“There exists significant improvement in the engagement, student interest, and motivation forsoftware engineering content using an integrated approach of active and deign-based learningcompared to traditional teaching approaches.” Traditional approaches refer to a combinationof lectures, tutorials and lab sessions for a software engineering course.To test this hypothesis, the experimental study included the design of software-engineeringcourse content, coordination of the study’s control (traditional) and

So in a sense the question here is: Do students who exhibit specific difficulties in de-scribing rigid body motion at the beginning of Statics exhibit specific difficulties in assessingequilibrium at the beginning or end of Statics? If so, might identifying these students at the startof Statics allow the instructor(s) to more effectively address these students’ expected challengesand give those students a better chance of exiting Statics with a consistent and correct approachto assessing equilibrium? This work attempts to answer the first of these two questions.MethodologyTo test the notion that understanding a dynamic rigid body gives a better foundation for under-standing a static rigid body, students complete a pair of simple questions

A quarter of the students who responded indicated they did not watch any of the recorded videos at all, leading to an average of only 2.74 videos (out of the thirty available videos) watched by each student. One reason for their failure to do so could be that the instructor stopped sending out weekly reminders that the videos were available for them to watch after the third week of instruction. For those who did watch, about 55% of the students watched the lecture videos in their entirety, while the rest watched only part(s) of the videos. None

demonstrate differences in team performance for simulations and real robotexperiments. While simulations are good for quicker testing and a cheaper solution thanpurchasing equipment, conducting experiments with real robots allows for more accurate results.In physical experiments, there are many factors, such as robot interference, an unknownenvironment, and delayed communications, which can influence results. However, running realexperiments are required to accurately test the efficiency of an approach. Future work includesexamining these factors further.Bibliography[1] S. Dawson, B. L. Wellman, and M.

year 1612. It was in this station that Harvey began to start hisresearch and further his understanding about the anatomy of the human body. Harvey spent theseyears focused upon the circulatory system of the body. He was fascinated with the process ofblood circulation, and was continually searching for the truth behind the process. As “physicianextraordinary” to James I, Harvey had some access to cadavers by which to conduct his research.This access to the human body proved invaluable in Harvey’s research, however he began to seethings that did not match up to the commonly held teachings of the time.During the 1600’s the view of the circulatory system was that of a body full of veins which couldpump blood both to and from the heart

The Bridge House was recently transformed by undergraduatestudents6 into a structural dynamics laboratory, including aesthetic rehabilitation, fabrication andinstallation of testing equipment and the addition of removable braces to alter the buildingdynamic response. The Bridge House is ideal for vibration experimentation since it is simpleenough for the students to quickly model by hand calculations and with computational models,yet complex enough so that the results can be readily applied to an actual structure. Thestructural system is straightforward consisting of ordinary moment frames in the N/S direction,and concentrically braced frames in the E/W direction.
