The main goal of the “Online Course DesignWorkshop” is to teach instructors interested in developing and teaching online courses how todivide the course into modules that last approximately one to two weeks. These modules have tofurther be divided into sub-modules with topics that students can work through in about an hour. All courses were required to conform to “The 2008 – 2010 Quality MattersTM (QM)Rubric” [12].

pedagogy is that the instructorsimply cannot cover the same volume of content as s/he might in a traditional class (lecture +homework). The expected benefit is that somehow the students will learn the concepts better, inthe sense they are learned in context. This contextual learning, our argument goes, should lead to1) rapid integration into the workforce upon graduation5, and 2) better structural foundation ofsoftware engineering knowledge that will evolve in an orderly way even after graduation. Thatis, the students understand less “stuff” but understand it in a way that is deeper and betterorganized so as to be better prepared to assimilate new and changing conceptual information, arequirement in the computing sciences.

Education in IndiaIntroductionQuality of engineering education, which is essential for the economic growth of the nation, hasemerged as a factor of paramount importance in India, today. This has led to several discussionson reforms in teaching-learning processes in engineering classrooms 1, 2.In particular, laboratory courses form an integral part of the degree programs in engineering.Concepts taught through lectures are often complemented by laboratory experiments which arecritical to enable learners to further develop their knowledge and skills. Student participation,however, in these laboratory based courses has been largely disappointing. It is often times ateacher’s experience that students are either not very interested in their laboratory

The experience gained is self-regulated in that if the team fails the systems engineering, the complexity of the vehicle is suchthat they will most likely perform poorly at the competition. Winning or performing well at thecompletion is what motivates the students to implement solid systems engineering principles. Forexample an inconsistency between the units used in two

This goal was especiallydifficult because of Boston’s unique neighborhoods, which integrate residential, commercial, andindustrial activities. With this mix, daytime businesses often prefer work to be done at night incontrast to residents, who prefer noisy activity to be done during the day.

Compared to the traditional lecturing that is instructor-centered, thePBL approach is an active, student-centered, and problem-centered method. Problem-basedlearning was first applied in medical science education at medical schools. Recently, PBLapproach is used for computer network design, electronics circuit design, biomedical engineering,chemical engineering and physics. The approach has mostly been used for university students.but has not been applied adequately to train middle and high school teachers. This paper describes the alternative energy

, the bottles may be shattered. To find the root of the problem a high speedcamera should be used.Using the camera we can narrow down the cause of the above problem. Judging the pattern ofthe phase difference between the motor shafts and how it acted at different speeds, we cannarrow down the troubleshooting and comment that the problem must be due to tuning of themotors. The problem cannot be due to a fault in the cam tables because the phase difference isvaries along with speed of the servomotors (Experiment 2).The servomotors are controlled by proportional-integral-derivative controllers (PID Controllers).This is a generic control loop feedback mechanism (controller).
