Course The city of Dayton and the University of Dayton find their greatest strength in the field ofaeronautics through numerous teaching, research and service activities. Dayton is an airplane town. At theUniversity of Dayton, there are roughly 130 students in the undergraduate aerospace concentration androughly 40 graduate students. In 2002, the aerospace concentration within the department of mechanicalengineering was overhauled. The core curricula of aerospace engineering programs and combinedmechanical and aerospace programs throughout the country were evaluated to determine the necessarycourses to be offered in the curriculum at University of Dayton. As a result of the survey, the Introductionto Flight course was added and the

learning activities in a course.In the case of introductory physics labs, goals range from reinforcing content, learning aboutmeasurement and uncertainty, practicing communication skills, developing teamwork skills, and,more broadly, learning that physics is an experimental science. It is unrealistic to hit all thosegoals. A practical benefit SBG for educators is that SBG made assessment easy. Academicprograms in higher education are constantly under scrutiny of various organizations, such as theHigher Learning Commission (HLC) and Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET). Because assessments and evidence collection are embedded in the day-to-day and lab-to-lab work, it is easier to integrate SBG into course level assessment

Wewere rewarded for it - students loved these service projects. The S-L project served as a link fromengineering theory to everyday objects people can touch and see. Along the process they learnedwhat they needed to learn - the CAD tools. It was a win-win situation. In the following sections,we will document these activities and share some ABET outcome assessment results.The Wrap Rack ProjectOur university’s motto is "To Seek to Learn is to Seek to Serve."1 Service-Learning (S-L) haslong been recognized as an effective way of achieving multiple student learning outcomes

To ensure thatstudent projects are along the same trajectory that the industry is moving, educators mustcontinually introduce emerging techniques, practices, and applications into the curriculum. Thefield of wireless sensor networks is growing rapidly, and there is increasing interest in providingundergraduate students with a foundation in the area. It is crucial that the emerging field ofwireless sensor networks be integrated into the undergraduate computer science and engineeringcurricula.

Thus, it is extremely difficult to provide the same level of instruction,feedback, and opportunity for growth as communicators in an integrated course model comparedto a dedicated course. However, dedicated TC courses can at times lack technical realism andpragmatic training. A department’s choice to offer TC training through an integrated model maystem from several considerations, including insufficient resources or lack of flexibility in thecurriculum.
