Asurvey is conducted at the start of semester to gauge students’ perception of their knowledge inthermodynamics. The survey is followed by a quiz to assess students’ actual knowledge of thefundamental concepts in thermodynamics. Based on the survey and the quiz results, the lecturesare carefully adjusted to help students with weaker background to catch up without makingstudents with stronger background getting board. Selection of a suitable textbook for the courseis also another challenge. This paper describes the challenges faced in teaching an introductorygraduate course in thermodynamics, and how these

MBD and HIL are common tools in wide usage in the automotive[7] and aerospace [8] industries. In education, MBD is already in use with simple mechanicalsystems (inverted pendulums, ball on beam, magnetic levitation) [3, 5], but HIL testing haslimited application [9], although Pensky [10] argues for the use of simulation in mechatronicseducation, largely because it has become indispensable in industry.When using THKs for educational purposes, the role of the instructor may change

Introduction Strain wave gear was invented by W. Musser in 1955 [1]. Its application is in aerospace sincethen. The strain wave gear is a type of mechanical gearing system that has unique characteristicscomparing with cycloidal drives or planetary gears. It has the advantages of zero backlash, highprecision, and high gear ratio from 30:1 to 320:1 in a compact packaging. Recent years, its mainapplication is for robotic arm joint.
