. This paperdiscusses an open-ended design project in which students bridge the gap by designing a devicethat converts heat produced by a candle into the work of raising a quarter vertically. The act ofdesigning and testing the device allows students the opportunity to analyze the conversionprocess using material learned in class and provides a valuable hands-on experience dealing withthe physical phenomena involved (i.e. friction, heat loss, sudden expansion, etc). The project hasbeen administered at multiple universities with students participating in small teams andfeedback gathered through post-project surveys. Several iterations of the project have beenadministered with variations in the analysis required, in-class time dedicated to the

-basedrobotic/mechatronic design projects. We expect that the integrated laboratory experiences in ourfirst-year mechanical engineering classes will improve the students’ understanding and retentionof fundamental engineering principles through the coupling of hands-on laboratory learning withdesign-based learning. We will assess this outcome by comparing final exam scores acrosssemesters (i.e., before and after the curricular changes). We also anticipate increased studentretention, which will be assessed by tracking which students eventually register for theMechatronics course in the junior year of the program.1. IntroductionOur overall curriculum has a very strong “hands-on” component at all levels with semester-longdesign projects in both semesters

In the modern healthcare industry, forinstance, biomedical engineers working with a multidisciplinary team can provide solutions tophysicians to aid in disease diagnosis. In a situation such as flu pandemic it may be desirable todo rapid screening for fever detection. In an academic setting, fever screening can help inseparating normal healthy students from those with suspected fever. This is the motivation todesign and develop an easy-to-use low cost temperature measurement device. The objective ofthis multidisciplinary project is to design a low-cost, scalable, rapid, and effective device forfever screening that can be applied to a wide variety of

Activities, or MEA's, are an extension to inductive learning which add additionalguidance to help ensure that students learn not only skills in teamwork, project management andcommunication but also the technical competencies of engineering. Two MEA's developed foruse in a Senior level undergraduate mechanical engineering course are discussed herein. Thefirst MEA in this course on mechanical measurements involves the design of a strain gaugebased load cell transducer. The second MEA involves the use of an accelerometer to comparethe impact absorbing properties of packaging materials. Both MEA's were implemented in theWinter 2010 quarter; the effectiveness of the MEA's for student learning, student responses to theMEA's, and lessons learned are

Developing new education and training for electric-drive vehicles requires carefulplanning of support laboratory, equipment and facilities. Existing courses in power electronicsand electrical machines can be expanded and their laboratory resources leveraged with moderatecost. However, the costs will increase if the instruction includes hands-on experience withelectric-drive
