professor wants to test his research hypothesis by quantifying the bandwidth of human arm movement and comparing it between “healthy” subjects and stroke patients. His idea is to measure the acceleration of the wrist while the subject is flexing and extending the elbow joint on a table with an object of various size and weight in the hand (e.g. tennis ball, water bottle, etc.). With potential large-scale deployment/experiments in mind, he desires a relatively inexpensive setup that can be easily operated by a lay person who is not necessarily technically oriented; the system should be operable, for example, by a nurse with, say, one hour of tutorial at most. You are an engineer who is aiding in

. Page 22.250.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2011 Assessment of a Laboratory Oriented Study CurriculumAbstract Utilizing real-world problems as a stimulus for student learning is not at all new and hasbeen in practice for a very long time. Wilkerson & Gijselaers have defined Problem-basedlearning as minds-on, hands-on, focused, experiential learning. The artistic science ofmeasurement and control is normally referred to as Experimentation and Instrumentation. Thevaried attributes of physical systems are usually measured using well designed instruments. Avery short list may include the measurement of voltage, current, resistance, inductance,capacitance, frequency, pressure

, which is a technical writing course offered by the Englishdepartment specifically designed to teach engineers best practices for writing reports andresearch papers. It is therefore expected that students should be reasonably proficient inpresenting their results in written form. It is clear from their narrative descriptions in the surveythat they have not necessarily internalized the entire data reporting process. Descriptions focusheavily on writing tasks and calculation tasks, but tend to forget the higher order tasks ofscientific and academic argument. The tasks which are more concrete, such as graphing,calculating, and following standard writing schemes stick in students’ minds as the key tasks inprocessing lab data. It is particularly

Presented work is partially the result of the belief that cutting edge research can only be conducted with appropriate supporting software tools. In order to bring that cutting edge research to undergraduate level, the software tools have to be not only easy to use but also intuitive. Thus, presented SAR-LAB software was designed and developed with a clear goal in mind to evolve into a standard educational as well as research tool
