engineering curriculum todemonstrate to engineers, scientists and other technical professionals how to systematicallydisassemble and analyze an assembly, as well as its components. In the early 1990’s, the Instituteof Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) first introduced these concepts of reverseengineering and product dissection, thus making them cornerstones of introductory engineeringcourses. Many studies have been conducted in introductory and undergraduate level engineeringcourses, finding that virtual product dissection can be used as a proxy for physical dissection inorder to have an impact on learning and creativity.While these studies have been systematic in nature, they have only explored product dissection inundergraduate co-located

Developedthrough a S-STEM grant NSF Scholarship, the program included cooperation between STEMteachers, college employees, administrators, student organizations and industry partners, four-year colleges, local high schools and professional organizations. In addition to providingfinancial support, student access to academic capital was enhanced by an intensive math reviewprogram, tutoring, study groups, additional training, and internship opportunities for research.Access to cultural and social capital was increased by providing scholars with

This paperoutlines the development of a virtual reality environment to aid in teaching the design andevaluation of flight controllers using classical control techniques. This environment is beingdesigned to provide a collaborative space where user(s) can manipulate the locations of poles andzeros of a controller for a dynamic system (such as an aircraft) and visualize its response. Such anenvironment will enable the user(s) to visualize how controller design
