The approach tomodernize the laboratory involved the participation of undergraduate and graduate students forredesigning experimental setups and upgrading the automated equipment as part of their Co-opproject. This approach kept the cost low and provided enhanced learning opportunities for thestudents who developed the experiments for MET 205 Robotics and Mechatronics. They gainedvaluable real world experience in the design and integration of automated equipment andPLCStudio

The working budget was US$800 for ten identical work stations.Such a small budget immediately eliminated the possibility of purchasing a significant number offractional-horsepower (~150W) motors and/or variable speed, three-phase drives.While each station in the electrical engineering laboratories at USD is equipped with a single208VAC (line voltage – 120 VAC phase voltage) three-phase outlet, these three-phase outletshave been historically unused for both safety concerns and the general lack of need. Since USDengineering students at the sophomore level have no experience working with voltages greaterthan ~30 V or power levels more than ~5W, and without time to teach and enforce appropriatesafety practices, it was

Proactively use a variety of active teaching and learning techniques. More qualitative than quantitative. Merely assigning more or less work based on a learner’s ability is typically ineffective. Rooted in assessment. Evaluation is no longer predominately something that happens at the end of a chapter to determine “who got it”. Assessment routinely takes place to determine the particular needs of individuals. A teaching style that provides multiple approaches to content, process, and product.

order to benefit teaching engineering courses while sharing resources with other universitiesand colleges, a remote laboratory has been successfully developed based on a novel unifiedframework. The laboratory is established through a collaborative effort between threeuniversities which are Texas A&M University Qatar (TAMUQ), University of Houston (UH)and Texas Southern University (TSU). Two remote engineering experiments are designed andimplemented in the off-site laboratory for teaching purposes, and a generic scheduler isdeveloped for managing the distance operations.

Many continuing education courses ofthis nature are taught by National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) and original equipmentmanufacturers (OEMs) of precision measuring equipment and measurement standards. Whatoften happens in the measurement community is that subject matter experts and scientists whobest know about measurements are asked to teach courses and tutorials, but most do not have abackground in educational models or adult education principles.Over the past 3 years, the National

study is to determine whether these skills have been carried over into the twosemester capstone design course. If the earlier course is effective in teaching experimentaldesign and laboratory techniques, this should translate to more sophisticated experimental designand execution in the capstone design course. To determine whether these concepts have beenretained in the capstone design course, design reports were examined to note the instances ofspecific Measurements and Analysis topics in the design projects. Reports were examined forstudent populations that had taken the revised course and were compared to reports for studentswho had taken the original course with two different instructors.
