Even though the FEM theory and FEAcommercial software are extremely complicated, most FEA commercial software has user-friendly interfaces and is easy to use. There were many ways to introduce FEA software tostudents. One of the common ways was to let students gradually learn FEA software, includingintroducing the FEA software during engineering statics in their sophomore year [8,9], mechanicsof materials in their sophomore year [9, 10,11] and design of machine elements in their junior year[12, 13,14] . Finally, a full course in finite element analysis was offered for junior or seniorengineering students [1~7].There were

Anethnography of nursing as a culture not only revealed the prevalence of intuition but that moreexperienced nurses trust their intuition and rely on it more [36]. Nurses who trust their intuitioncan positively change the outcomes of their patients [37]. Furthermore, nurses define intuition asan autopilot task which can be learned [38].Master of Business Administration (MBA) classes, in contrast, are often centered on studyingbusiness cases derived from situations in industry. Studies in business have shown an increase inusing “real projects” in classes and that internship experiences are critical to universityperformance [39].

Applying the concept of simplification in the process ofcreating a system architecture is an art that requires repeated, iterative practice with feedback.This is why we believe that a systems architecture course is a good candidate to be taught usingthe studio art format [9]. Similar practices have been identified between system architects and both composers offilm scores [26] and master painters [27], including managing complexity and seeking harmonyin the final product.
