also follow theproject based approach in teaching leadership to engineering students ((Khattak et al., 2012).Penn State’s (USA) Engineering Leadership Development Minor (EDLM) is a slightly differentmodel than any project based leadership model used in laboratories. The EDLM Model requiresstudents to take multiple courses in leadership focusing on core leadership qualities, globalleadership qualities, and 21st century leadership qualities (Schuhmann, 2011). Similarly,Babucia, Craig, and Connor (2012) discuss MIT satellite development program projects whichprovide students with the leadership education through a project based approach. The MITprogram is a three-term class focusing on engineering topics and developed for implementationat

diagrams: interpretation skills • Mechanical properties: laboratory experiments on tension test, impact test, hardness, heat treatment • Materials selection: study of common objects and designs – cups and saucers, cutlery, door knobs, skate boards, bicycles, cars, etc. • Failures: fracture generated from different tests Some topics such as phase diagrams and atomic bonding are very important, but theyare complex to teach and not easy for students to understand. Theses, of course, requiremore time, effort and homework problem sets to get the message across. As a result, it isnot always possible to appropriate equal amounts of teaching time and assessment tasksto meet all of the ABET outcomes listed for the course
teachingmanufacturing systems courses, they have been used successfully for teaching a closely relatedsubject, Robotics and Automation7. Those using this approach have found that the main benefitof such labs is that they allow students to visualize and experiment with the theories learned inclass. However, as students work on virtual remote laboratory projects through computerinterfaces, the sole use of this approach has been reported to lead to feelings of isolation and todecreases in student motivation7.It is apparent that if the challenges of development and maintenance costs can be overcome, theuse of physical manufacturing systems laboratories can be an effective approach for teachingmanufacturing systems courses1,5-7. Labs based on physical systems allow

These ideas include thefollowing: • Using multi-media resources such as educational videos and recorded interviews to give an overview of the materials world. For example, a compact disk made by Struers (Struers is a major manufacturer of metallurgical laboratory products, see www.struers.com for more information) presents the history of materials evolution right from the pre-historic times to the present age. In addition, computer simulations on various topics such as solid solubility of carbon in steel, diffusion, and dislocation motion
