The older curriculum had become outdated, was notteaching our students what we thought they needed, and was not preparing the students for therest of the mechanical engineering program and beyond.As our graduating students completed exit surveys, common criticisms of the program included aperceived lack of software availability and a deep knowledge of how to use the software, lack ofpreparation for constructing prototypes (mechanical and/or electrical), and lack of product designinstruction and practice.

A comprehensive approach to product safety is taught including the influences of designers, manufacturers, sales and marketing personnel, executives, regulators, consumers, and the use environment. The need for effective and consistent information, instructions, and marketing messaging for a product is stressed. Students will study the role of compliance with standards and regulations as well as the failure of standards developers to keep standards current.1 For its first offering, the course, ME EN 5960/6960 “Special Topics,” was offered as a joint product

Suchmath-intensive courses would benefit greatly by incorporating many of the widely availablemodel-based simulation tools (e.g., Matlab's Simulink) that can be used to simulate continuous-time and discrete-time systems. Therefore, the use of simulation tools for reflection is notlimited to the case study presented in this paper. Rather, this method can be used in other ECEcourses as well as in other engineering disciplines that rely on simulation.ReferencesAdams, R., Turns, J., & Atman, C. (2003).

This multipronged approachis advantageous because, while specific interventions may not be transferable, students’experiences can transcend contexts within and across institutions.

This suggests that prior performance (e.g., grades) and not just experience may be amongthe best predictors available. Finally, the data have confirmed that student performance on amidterm exam is most significantly impacted by whether students attend classes regularly andfor the full duration of the class, and whether they have access to the book—although it does notseem to matter much if that access is to a digital copy or to a printed copy.In conclusion, it is clear that more study is required to elucidate
