activities for undergraduate engineering students.IntroductionIn the late 1990’s and early 2000’s, scholarship in American engineering education underwent afundamental shift as a result of two distinct events: restructuring of the accreditationrequirements of ABET, Inc. (previously known as the Accreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology) in 1997 and the publication of the National Academy of Engineering “Engineer of2020” reports in 2004 and 20051. These reform efforts stemmed from calls from the Americanprofessional engineering community citing a consistent need for professional, communicative,and innovative engineers in the workplace2, and led to the creation of numerous experimentalpedagogies, programs, and other initiatives to encourage

changing the design objective, goal, and constraints between years, all teamswill compete on a level playing field.A short activity has been developed to present and reinforce the concepts of design formanufacturability. The activity is highly reusable; for example, by simply adjusting thedesignated costs or earning per widget each year, a previous year’s winning design can berendered ineffective given the new constraints. Further, this activity is not discipline-specific;we expect that it is well suited for students in all engineering fields.6. References[1] K. T. Ulrich and S. D.

Theythen write short programs to flash the LEDs in sequence.For the remaining two weeks the students are divided into groups as described above. Thestudent(s) responsible for chassis development design the basic components needed to mount thedrive motors, wheels, sensors, and microcontroller. They then integrate them into a prototypechassis design, which is then fabricated. If necessary, the process is iterated.The student(s) responsible for software development perform two additional laboratoryexercises. In the first, they are given prewritten code to poll the rangefinder sensors. They usethis to calibrate the

the ‘autosave’ feature.The LabArchives development team implemented this feature into the ELN on request. At theend of the semester both the students and the faculty were surveyed. All surveys wereanonymous and consent to use the anonymous data was obtained for IRB approval. Since themajority of the students used paper notebooks either in their freshman design course, perviousBME design course(s), and/or during their employment (i.e. internship or co-op) they couldmake a direct comparison. They were asked to rate a number of criteria, on a scale of 1-3 (where1 is poorly, 2 is moderately, and 3 is very), related to logistics and the engineering outcomesused to grade the notebooks for both paper and electronic notebooks.

with prior post-secondary experience, about half hadattended a four-year school. Some combination of work, family or geography made attendingtraditional classes at an institution offering an undergraduate mechanical engineering degreeunfeasible. The potential career benefits of an engineering degree tended to be the primarymotivator for participating in the distance program at UND. The school was chosen primarilydue to both its reputation and the fact that there are few, if any, other accredited undergraduatedistance mechanical engineering degree programs.References [1] Ibrahim, W. and R.

Reason 2 isthat “[s]tudying the humanities allows you to become familiar with and use the creative ideasfrom great minds outside of science.
