in Ohio State’s Production Planning and Facility Layout are 3rd and4th year IE students usually 2 semesters before graduation. Most of these students havepreviously or are concurrently taking courses in Quality Management, Work Measurement,Cognitive Human Factors, Ergonomics, Project Management, and Linear Programming.The aim of the Cookie Project is to help the students integrate the ideas of demand forecasting,inventory management, material requirements planning, and facility layout from this course aswell as concepts from their other IE courses. The project involves creating a business plan for aproposed cookie manufacturer as a business consultants in teams of 4-6 students. To gain anunderstanding of the process of cookie making, the

to the completion of IE/ME degree; 6. Have declared Industrial Engineering or Mechanical Engineering as their major; 7. Demonstrate financial need as defined by the US Department of Education rules for need-based federal financial aid - Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).Based on this requirement, the scholars are selected from current students, not freshmen. SCOPEScholars are expected to receive enhanced mentoring and participate extracurricularactivities. They must participate in activities including: 1. Career mentoring – Scholars must meet with a professor to discuss resumes, internships and career planning. 2. Outreach and advisement – Scholars must meet with a professor to discuss academic performance and

production.Manufacturing concepts such as inventory planning, production scheduling, and processimprovement (Lean and Six Sigma methodologies) will also be considered. By comparing physicalsimulations with virtual reality environments, this paper provides insights into the applicability ofvirtual reality technologies in the education domain. Research activities will be integrated intoundergraduate courses on manufacturing systems to support problem-solving skill developmentamong students.1. BackgroundSimulation games can be a catalyst for understanding manufacturing concepts among engineeringstudents. Using simulation games allows students to experiment various manufacturing systems ina realistic setting. Moreover, simulation games can provide a means to engage

student feedbacksurveys, quality of student work and course grades.BackgroundThe two courses included in this study are “Quality Analysis” (QA) and “Design ofExperiments” (DOE). Both are required courses in the Industrial Engineering master’s programat the University of New Haven. The main topics covered in the QA course are principles ofquality control systems, control charts for variables and attributes, process capability analysis,measurement system analysis, and acceptance sampling plans whereas the DOE courseintroduces students to fundamental concepts in planning, designing and conducting experimentsand covers various designs such as factorial design, response surface methodology, nested andsplit-plot designs.The course assignments and

standpoint when solving an engineering problem.We have proposed and described in this paper how modeling can be used to overcome thisbarrier, providing students a mechanism to operationalize their ethical responsibility. We havealso used modeling to demonstrate how students could have benefited from modeling to realizethat their answers to the assignment were not aligned with their ethical responsibility.Furthermore, while we have used the attribute of reliability and the topic of valuing life as anexample, we have also discussed the possible effectiveness of modeling to operationalize ethicalresponsibility to support decision-making for other engineering decisions.We plan future work to test how previous, traditional ethical training factors in the

of their junioryear. The journal can serve as physical evidence that the student can use to keep track of all theactivities, document the history, write notes, and revisit whenever needed. It is also a way to seethe linkage between the courses [39].3.4 Future PlanThe plan of this project is to assess the impact of i) using VR technology to teach IE conceptsand ii) using VR teaching modules to integrate the IE curriculum. The assessment involves twocohorts: control and intervention groups. The authors are currently collecting data for the controlgroup. Once the VR module is fully developed, relevant data will be collected and analyzed withrespect to the control group. The assessment instruments involve self-report surveys andknowledge tests
