This prototype project is intended to inspire students to recycle andreuse items around their homes and create something beneficial. Upon completion of thebackground research phase students transition to the prototype design, where students analyzethe crucial functions of arm and develop a working cardboard prototype which will later be 3Dprinted and assembled. Next step would be to analyze the muscles, which normally control handmovements and connect them to EMG (Electromyography) sensors [2]. Signals from thesesensors will be read by Arduino which in turn will activate the assigned motors in the prosthetichand.Engineering design process will be applied as

The students should also understandfactors that need to be considered in ergonomic design. As a result, several educatorsattempted to engage undergraduate students in real life ergonomic examples or casestudies in the theory class by various approaches.Several educators and researchers aimed at providing hands-on experience to theundergraduate students in the human factors and ergonomics class.

Collaborative Learning (e.g. PBLs) have been widelyused in the engineering curriculum [1]. Project/problem based activities have been implementedto help students learn new concepts faster. In this methodology, a question or problem is used todrive the students’ learning activities to produce a product that can be used in real world. PBL isused to prepare students with skills such as leadership, team building, ethical behavior,creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving [2]. PBL has been implemented as part of thecurriculum or as a replacement of the traditional classroom.EMLs are either designed independently or used by modifying existing pedagogy techniquessuch as SBL or ACL.

leak-free or airtight systems such as in plastic(micro) fluidic systems, e.g., for point-of-care lab-on-a-chip systems.An ultrasonic weld is made by bringing the working surface of a horn (sonotrode) connected toan ultrasonic transducer in close contact with two workpieces that have been positioned andaligned. The vibrating horn pressed onto the surface of the workpiece(s) creates ultrasonic(10,000 to 30,000 Hz) waves that travel through the workpiece. The ultrasonic waves incombination with applied force, create a vibration-induced frictional heating at the matingsurfaces of the parts, leading to surface melting and subsequent fusion.Ultrasonic welding is a relatively fast (1 sec per weld), clean process that does not requireadhesives
