This paper provides an example of such an independent study doneby an undergraduate Mechanical Engineering student. It involves numerically investigating theflow characteristics of a slotted airfoil for enhanced stability while also utilizing certain basicconcepts learned in the traditional lecture to optimize the design. The entire project has beenconstructed in a manner to challenge the student by giving maximum exposure to the abovementioned five stages of a problem solving cycle.Background The interaction between a fluid and a

The results of the multi-model comparative analysis did notfully support the hypothesis (H4), regarding how these constructs may combine to driveengagement in extracurricular engineering-related activities. However, we do find partialsupport for it. Namely, past research [2], found that engineering values operates as a distalmotivator of engagement in engineering-related activities, and the results presented here do notcontradict this finding. Instead they offer a revised model that includes both engineering valuesand identity as distal drivers of engagement with and intervening impact of student self

Community relations and impact comeinto play when they generally interact with the partner or are needing input and feedback. The balance seen in these reflections is similar to what has been seen in other data from theoverall program. In particular, a study of alumni [13] found that it was the interplay of thesedimensions that was cited by graduates that created the exceptional learning experience.
