Adapting a Freshman Manufacturing Course to Different Learning StylesIntroductionOur mechanical engineering curriculum includes a freshman course in Design ForManufacturing (DFM). This course introduces project management skills via a curriculumemploying project-based learning. These skills include product design, resource planning,process planning and cost analysis, but the primary focus is in producing a design that ismanufacturable. The most recent offering of this course gives the student an option of lab seriesin which to develop the concepts of DFM. One series uses manual machining processes and theother uses Computer Numerical Control (CNC) manufacturing. Ideally each student can learnusing the method they are

Benchtop Hybrid PowertrainAbstractConcept retention between courses is a recurring problem for engineering educators – one that isexacerbated by the disjointed nature of the engineering curriculum. One possible solution to theproblem, a multi-year design/build/test project, is currently being studied by the authors. Theproject, a bench-scale hybrid powertrain, is completed by our students over the course of fivesemesters. The focus of this paper is the set of electronic circuitry needed to sense and controlthe powertrain. This is the latest installment in a series of papers discussing the project; see [2-6]for a fuller description.The “prime mover” in the benchtop hybrid is a small engine powered by compressed air, whichis designed and fabricated

Findings suggest that students often lack resources for effectively solving teamproblems, though “high achieving” students, defined as having a self-reported GPA of 3.5 orabove, are often more proactive when dealing with slacker teammates, using strategies such assetting early deadlines or selecting teammates known also to be high achievers. However, acrossthe board, students preferred to “do nothing” when dealing with domineering or exclusionaryteammates.These findings shed light on the disproportionate burden women and under-representedminorities face in team projects and the lack of resources
