Students reported that changing teaching approaches kept them motivated andengaged in the activities associated with the lab. These findings entice the authors to consider thethree-way approach in future semesters and to refine it by building on its strengths. Page 14.133.9Bibliography1.

In absolutecoordinates, the location of characteristic point 5 is, for example, x5 = X2 + r5•cos( 2+ 5) y5 = Y2 + r5•sin( 2+ 5) (1)where X2 and Y2 define the absolute location of the mass center for body 2, and 2 is the CCWrotation of body 2’s body-fixed coordinate system. In this example, if link 2 has its massdistributed symmetrically with respective to the line between its revolute joints, the body-fixedcoordinate system x-axis can be lined up with the coupler link line shown and 5 will be zero and 4 will be .

Amicrocontroller with programming activity is integrated in almost every laboratory experiment.The main objective of this course is to learn by doing the hands-on activities. Here is the list ofelectrical and electronic components this course used to facilitate laboratory experiments: • Arduino Uno R3 • MOSFET, diode, and LED • H-bridge, op-amp, and buzzer • Temperature sensor, flex sensor, touch sensor, light sensor, and weight sensor • Stepper motor and dc motor • Discrete electrical componentsStudent Learning OutcomesThe mechatronics course at

These degrees have slightly different learning goals. In order to award allthree degrees, the university needs to assess and assure that the learning goals are achieved.How can this be monitored, and is it even possible? Some previous publications [3, 4] suggestthat it is possible but requires a lot of effort in adapting program goals to course goals andensuring a high standard in the curriculum

In order to get a reasonable calculation time, a2D plane steady flow calculation was selected. A free stream velocity of 20 m/s, a wall surfaceroughness of 100 micrometer and a turbulence intensity of 1% were chosen for the settingsfollowing the CosmosFloWorks wizard.

“Simulation…hasbecome ubiquitous in engineering education.” More recently, Magana [4] presents research donewith a panel of 18 experts from academia and 19 from industry, on what modeling andsimulation (M&S) practices should be integrated into engineering education. There wassignificant consensus on the need for skills related to validation, acknowledging uncertainty inthe interpretation of simulation predictions, and developing intuition and being critical of results.Developing a healthy doubt of computer-generated results in students is an issue that others haveaddressed [5], [6]. Both the increasing use of M&S, and the need for the credibility of M&Sresults to be questioned, is addressed in the ASME Guide for Verification and
