students in University 1’s engineer-ing departments are taking 138% of the hours that are needed to graduate.1 For this program, itmeans students are graduating with approximately 180 hours on average. It is also worth notingthe curriculum rigidity of the University 1 program. There are 1.48 edges per node, meaning eachclass has an average of one-and-a-half prerequisites. The longest path of nine is also significant,as it is longer than the number of semesters in a four year program, i.e., there are ten classes inthis pre/co-requisite chain that must be completed in eight semesters. Obviously there are severalco-requisites in this chain, meaning that two classes can be taken together, but this length makes afailure very costly in terms of timely

there and our job is to identify the problem (s) and come up with theappropriate solution (s). To do so, we need to use tools and equipment to measure and identifythe parameters that help us to identify the problem (s). This kind of work needs expertise andunderstanding of how to measure and identify the fundamental parameters, such as temperature,pressure, concentration, illuminance, and airflow.Design and troubleshooting are considered as two subcategories of problem solving (McCade).Problem solving has been defined in many ways. Ritz describes a problem as a need which mustbe met (Ritz, et al. 1986a). The main difference between the two subcategories is the fact that thedesign is a “proactive” problem solving (Baker & Dugger, 1986) and

where stiffness is most evident. Since the blades spin during normaloperation, they must be designed to minimize axial deflection due to the tension created by thecentrifugal loading and to minimize bending under their own weight due to static loading. Ahelicopter blade can be modeled as a fixed-free cantilever beam. Students can solve for thedeflection of the blade under tensile loading and distributed loading, as shown in Figure 5. Acase-study of the Sikorsky S-76 blade tip failure is also introduced. Students then discuss whatthey have learned about stiffness and deflection as it relates to design of components and how theS-76 design could be modified to minimize the risk of failure.3.

Since fourstudents did not pass the intervention course with an “S”, these four students are identified inTables 7 and 8 as “U” for “Unsatisfactory” and are omitted from any further analyses. Inaddition, the seven students who failed to take the post-PSVT:R are identified in Tables 7 and 8as “No Post.”The calculated composite ACT for both TG and CG further broken down by post-PSVT:R scoresfor the TG are shown in Table 9. The CG did not take a second PSVT:R. A t-test between thecalculated composite ACT of the TG and CG indicate a significant difference (p = 0.013)between the two groups suggesting a self-selection bias to opt out of the intervention coursebased on ACT score.

In these demonstrations, the teacher modeled the experimental methods asthe “more knowledgeable other,” and students were shown how to undertake these methods ontheir own in teams.21 The teacher then elicited discussions and reflections on the discrepantevents students witness as s/he and the students “talked science.” The teacher described howexperiments are conducted with controls and a variable, and got students to identify theindependent and dependent variables and the controls. The teacher introduced the concept of heatby first finding out what students thought about it. Then presented the concepts of conduction,convection, and radiation, and performed

preventstudents from finding out answers from those who took the exam earlier. But, if sectionsare taught back to back, the danger is minimized. If out-of-class common exams arescheduled, it is eliminated. Then a single exam can be used, which will save severalhours in creating the exam, and save grading time as well, due to lower startup overhead.Reason #4: Less web site/LMS overhead. Teaching one class means only one course website, and only one course to set up in a learning management system. The sameassignments, grade weights and policies apply to all sections.Reason #5: Fewer meetings of course staff. In most courses, it’s necessary to meet withTA(s) once a week, and this meeting may last an hour. In multi-section courses, a singlemeeting

Measure component values – students measure the resistances of all their resistors to verify that they have all the resistors they are supposed to in their packs, and also measure the voltage of their batteries to make sure they are still good. Students seemed surprised to learn that a brand-new 9V battery typically had a voltage of 9.5-9.6 V rather than 9.0 V.2.
