students “work as an engineer,” the courseinstructors took a backward design approach to redesign this course. First, learning outcomesfor the course were redefined to highlight problem-solving skills, which are essentialoutcomes according to the ABET criteria. Second, a comprehensive assessment plan wascreated to measure student progress in each of the learning outcomes. Rubrics-based gradingfocuses on assessing five dimensions of student work: the solution’s efficacy, quality oftechnical writing, oral communication, completion of prototypes, and testing plans and results.Finally, the newly developed learning outcomes and assessment plan were aligned withlearning activities in the course, including design, prototyping, testing, as well as

The plan is continuing this 6type of learning procedure [11] and to integrate academic undergraduate or graduate studentgroups to force them solving problems under appropriate guidance but also involving them incollaborative multicultural environment to achieve a simple goal. Thomas and McGregor in 2005[12] emphasized the relevance of this type of interaction.Development of a two crew lightweight sailplane (project AVE)The IDEXA team is

class. The students mentioned that they understoodthe effect of end-fixity on buckling capacity of a member better after seeing the demonstrationand wished that they had the opportunity to use this set-up in the sophomore year. Authors are planning to use the frame in a Statics II course to demonstrate the concept ofbuckling at the end of Spring 2019 semester and have plans to possibly use it in the Introductionto Engineering course in Fall 2019. Figure 9 shows the application of load frame for first year students in Spring 2019. Figure 9: Demonstration of the concept of buckling for first year classConclusion and Future Work: The design and construction of this frame was a successful project, which was

test sensing and measurement instrumentation circuits that use resistors,capacitors, op-amps, and sensors.Specifically, by the end of the course, the student will be able to:● Use a voltage divider to create a sensing circuit;● Produce a Bode plot and explain the frequency response of a circuit;● Design low-pass, high-pass, and band-pass filters/amplifiers;● Analyze data and transform measured data;● Troubleshoot a circuit.The equipment needed to conduct that labs and some of the p-sets include a computer, an AnalogDiscovery 2 (Digilent, https://store.digilentinc.com/), and 5V power supply circuit board,powered by a USB port of students’ laptop computers. The power supply was designed byBradley Minch (plans and materials list found at https

see the work that everyone else did. I like that there were a lot of resources already available in the Team Drive. I like the diversity of projects done throughout the semester.” “I like the team communication that was necessary to complete the projects throughout the semester.” “The extremely fast pace of the class forced me to dedicate a lot of my effort into organizing the project, and setting realistic, yet ambitious goals. This also included delegating tasks between group members.” “I think I learned the most about how much work it takes to make a good project vs.a mediocre project. Planning a project takes a decent

students’ feedback and future work, it is noteworthy that we plan to expand theSTAND’s use in the sensor courses (and beyond where applicable). This further developmentand use expansion will take the latest student feedback and the lecturer’s personal impressioninto account, so a more in-depth analysis is to come. For this BYOE paper, we will share someselected student comments. Most of the students' comments refer to both using the STAND andperforming the same laboratory in a hands-on setting: “I believe I learned a lot more in the hands-on mode than I did in the remote setup regardingthermistors and circuit building. However, I learned a lot about Simulink and how it works in theremote lab. Switching between the two was only difficult due to

test and interpreting the results.Importantly, the course is delivered virtually, which makes the implementation very differentfrom that in an in-person classroom setting. This paper provides a detailed discussion of the virtual laboratory modules added to‘Nondestructive Evaluation of Flaws’. In addition, we report how the changes impacted thestudent learning in Fall 2020 compared to Fall 2019, when the delivery was strictly lecture-based. Finally, we discuss ‘lessons learned’ and modifications planned for the next offerings ofthis class. Our overall assessment results indicate a positive impact of the virtual laboratories on

, structural mechanics, sustainable infrastructure development, and material model development. He had been actively involved in planning, designing, supervising, and constructing many civil engineering projects, such as roads, storm drain systems, a $70 million water supply scheme which is comprised of treatment works, hydraulic mains, access roads, and auxiliary civil works. He had developed and opti- mized many highway design schemes and models. For example, his portfolio includes a cost-effective pavement design procedure based on a mechanistic approach, in contrast to popular empirical procedures. In addition, he had been equally engaged in the study of capacity loss and maintenance implications of local and state
