, andsupersaturation is possible. However, in the right graph there is no solid region where oneelement could be soluble in the other in the solid state. With no solid solubility, a supersaturatedsolid solution cannot be created. So the underlying reason(s) for difficulty in understanding thefirst explanation could lie in poor chart reading ability, vocabulary, or in the meaning ofsolubility limit or all. The response addresses all issues with the two graphs, but could have beenimproved with better labeling on the diagrams.Fig. 3.

The comments in Muddy Points 2–5 all relate to difficulty in reading the graph, whichplots metal hardness (a measure of strength) as a

their specimens, a benchtop mechanical tester (MTestQuattro; ADMET,Inc., Norwood, MA, USA) was used by the students to deform their specimens in tension at afixed deformation rate of 0.5 mm/s until failure was observed. Engineering stress-strain curveswere constructed from the resulting data, and the students determined the Young’s modulus (E),yield stress (σy), and strain at failure (εf) for each specimen. A full list of materials, step-by-stepinstructions, discussion questions and a glossary of engineering terminology is publicallyavailable.8 While only one deformation rate is investigated here, activity extensions could beperformed to investigate the effect of rate on the deformation response. As many polymericmaterials are viscoelastic

The format of CRs also motivates key principles of student learning, includingstimulating intrinsic motivation and curiosity, enhancing cognition and memory, and developingmetacognition and self-regulation. This system of complementary readiness assessments allowsfor students with different learning styles to use whichever suits their learning more.1 Velegol, S. B., Zappe, S.E., and Mahoney, E. 2015.

field.V. ConclusionTo meet national workforce need, we developed different computational modeling modules andtaught the modules in two undergraduate materials science and engineering course, includingStructure of Materials course and Thermodynamics course. Students studied the computationalmodeling theory outside of the class. In the class, the instructor focused on hands-on practice.The module s covered various materials structure and thermodynamic topics, such as atom andbonding simulations, point defect formation energy calculations and diffusion simulations,chemical reaction simulations, Gibbs free energy equilibrium calculations, and phase separationsimulations. Student feedback was collected in consideration of the module
