In the future, the course will be offered in aclassroom that is more conducive to group exercises. A classroom configured for groupexercises (such as a laboratory setting) [2] should inform student expectations regarding classactivities.Conclusions and Future WorkThe data from this preliminary study do not yield a firm conclusion about the effectiveness of theguided-inquiry active learning system. The results do indicate a modest gain in learning;however, it is not clear whether students would have demonstrated a higher gain in knowledgewithin a

In 2010,the availability of low-cost robotic arms increased substantially. These types of robots are idealsolutions with applications in automation, laboratory, and education because of their adaptabilityto various industries and tasks. The objective of this project is to design a low- cost/affordableindustrial robot manipulator including base, arm, wrist, and end effector with similar functions toa human arm and fingers with educational applications.

In the pre-existing paradigm, teachersintroduce the theory of a new concept prior to running an experiment or discussing contextualapplications of the theory. The physics laboratory objective is solely to verify or support thepresented theory. Teachers then encourage students to extrapolate implementation contextsthrough discussions that follow the lab experiment. The focus of the student lab report is ontheory, procedures, data collection and applying that data to the theoretical equations. Reportconclusions recount how well the experiment matched

While it is likely that theories of socialization stillhold, and can be interpreted across disciplines, there are contextual differences in disciplinaryacademic culture that do not align well9,12,17. For example, reliable funding is one of the primarycauses for attrition in the humanities, although, as Crede and Borrego 18 note, this reasoning doesnot typically apply to graduate engineering students, who are upwards of 80% fully funded.Advisor relationships do still play a strong role in the attrition process, as does the laboratoryculture, since a student’s laboratory is like a family and plays

To analyze the existing system, a model was created where pressure, temperature and flow in inlet and outlet, RPM and torque were selected as parameters and system efficiency was selected as output. The analysis found that the outlet pressure and RPM were the most significant parameters for optimizing efficiency. Further analysis was done using Excel considering only pressure and RPM. It was found that system gains maximum efficiency (89.34%) at pump pressure of 196 psi and speed of 1700 RPM.
