organizing principle and drove all of the learningactivities for the semester. While the PBL activities helped students with self-directed learning ofthe key concepts of the course the PrBL activity served as a “glue” in illustrating the syntheticapplication of the many topics toward a life cycle approach to the design of products. Studentswere required to turn in a one-page proposal within two weeks of the project assignment as totheir choice of the product and the deliverables that they planned to include in the final projectreport. Roughly from the mid-point in the semester (about 6-7 weeks from the start) each studentpresented their project progress to the entire class. The presentations were to last roughly 20minutes (15 minutes of formal

course module aboutthe DFM and DFA concepts. As one of the course assignments, the students are asked to designa product that is easily and economically manufactured. They are expected to utilize the designtechniques for DFM and DFA and integration of product design and process planning into onecommon activity. Students are asked to consider realistic constraints of the AM technology isthis process, and design their parts for AM process. Once they complete their design, theygenerate 3D models and print their design in the AM Lab. For 3D CAD modeling, students use afree, cloud-based CAD tool i.e. AutoDesk™ TinkerCAD. They also download and use the recentversions of the MakerBot™ and/or CubePro™ 3D Printing Software for preparing their designsfor

for high school and middle school students from across the state to participate in STEM-related activities. To date, these activities have been centered around rotary-wing UAS, predominantlyusing less complex 3D printing fabrication techniques. However, we plan to eventually integrate simpletechniques that may be adapted for K-12 students to design and construct fixed-wing UAS. In addition,UAF is involved in developing several future activities, including a proposed effort to coordinateeducational opportunities for K-12 teachers from across the state, as well as UAS competitions, such asthe popular drone racing.Modern Blanket Toss.

The affirmative 40% in both the pre andpost delivery response can be attributed to those students who are not interested in Controls as asubject and they feel that they are forced to take the as a required course.Question 7:, approximately 75% students liked the laboratory exercises. But 20% wanted morehardware exercises.Question 8: approximately 80% students answered that the industry demands Digital Control.Some of the suggestions are to improve the course are as the following: 1. Have some hardware experiments involving dc and servo motors. 2. Plan a visit to some local communication

During the course,students were tasked with building a portable grid-tied solar photovoltaic lab equipment afterextensive lectures to learn the theory. Students worked in teams to prepare an action plan for theproject. Four teams were created for the initial steps of the project. The assignments of the teamsare (a) estimates and quotes for the materials; (b) computer aided design (CAD); (c) productionof the portable stand; (d) purchasing of solar photovoltaic related equipment and supply; and (e)building the unit-system

well. 1. This model requires a true partnership between textbook authors and a recognized commercial software company. Ensuring that individual interests are well-served by the arrangement is critical. Stakeholders include students, faculty, authors, publishers, and industry, and all must be remembered when establishing the partnership. 2. Matching print material with more dynamic software can be a challenge. A strong and stable software company must be part of the equation to ensure sustainability. Also the ability to adjust to software revisions between textbook updates must be planned. 3. As is always the case with experiential learning, the addition of this facet of the course does require faculty time

affective components of student engagement (Dixson, 2015) Online Course Management Systems One of the negative effects which was detected in online learning environments is thatoften new generation of learners can behave as “butterflies fluttering across the information on thescreen, touching or not touching pieces of information (i.e., hyperlinks), quickly fluttering to anext piece of information, unconscious to its value and without a plan” (Kirschner & vanMerriënboer, 2013). Some researchers do not agree that today's learners are digital natives andefficient multitaskers, who learn best if the specific learning styles are catered or they learn as self-educators (Kirschner & van Merriënboer, 2013).

machine design presented in this paper willbenefit technicians, electricians, and manufacturing workers by providing a user- friendly and low-cost efficient device that will accurately and efficiently cut one wire. The automated industrialwire cutting machine also decreases manual labor; as a result, it increases productivity.There are cost-effective ways to improve this prototype that can increase productivity even moresignificantly. Even though the machine prototype was only able to cut and strip one wire at a time,it is more accurate and efficient than most machines in the market at a fraction of the price. Asmentioned in the future work section there is a plan to make it a 4-wire machine that will beat anycompetitor in the market. It is hoped

members began looking for an answer for our testing purposes. Throughresearch, discussing with several faculty members in the Engineering Technology Departmentand the Aerospace Department, came up with a plan to test our model. First we needed a model.The team drew a model in Inventor 8 and built a model out of Styrofoam using a FadalVMC3016. With the testing completed, the main factors that had to be improved were theweight and the angle of the hull. The team knew that the lighter the hull, the better the results,but after the DOE we knew by how much. The angle of the hull was critical. If the team had nottested the design, the angle of attack initially chosen would have been devastating. Now that allof the unknowns were solved, the craft was

That path usually began in theteenage years with an interest in amateur radio and tinkering with electronics, followed by mathand science courses in high school, then pursuit of a degree in engineering or technology.Unfortunately, that path has nearly disappeared over the last twenty-five years or so because ofthe evolution of electronic technology in ways that make it seem less accessible to tinkerers andamateur radio operators and because electronic
