, 2008. All of the academicprograms within the college are now either recommending or requiring the course for theirstudents. Currently two large sections (i.e. 70 students/section) are offered each semester andadditional sections are projected for the future. Many of the elements of the course could beadopted directly as embedded indicators for ABET assessment tools. The level of the outcomespecified in the new class in the areas of leadership, professional and ethical responsibility, andteamwork meets the level suggested in ASCE’s BOK2. When coupled with the total collegeincentives, the level of the leadership outcome surpasses BOK2’s requirements.The topics of this course naturally lead to a great deal of student discussion.

Basic computational tools and routines, including the ones fordifferential equations, spectral analysis, and matrix operations, are dealt with throughrelevant examples, and more advanced topics are treated. The broad categories ofcomputational physics studied are simulation, visualization and modeling, numericalmethods, algorithms and data analysis. Simulation and modeling are taught by stressingnumerical techniques and programming language(s) techniques employed. Besideslearning how to solve numerical problems with a computer, the student also will gainexperience writing manuscripts in a scientific journal

thatstudents are making progress toward achieving the learning outcomes of the capstone project,and by extension progress toward degree program outcomes? This is a serious and difficultquestion often raised as “how do I assess the individual working within the project team?” [2][7].But it is more than how to arrive at a grade. For the instructor, s/he wants to provide formativefeedback early and often during the project to help the student understand the larger context of aspecific issue and how it applies in the real world. For the student, gaining an awareness of thecause-and-effect of her/his choices and actions within a team, and how those judgments translateto the real world is important.

They were extendedat 0.02cm/s and the test continued until the failure (fracture) of the specimen. The students notedthe elongation to break (strain) and ultimate strength (Mpa) of the specimens. Given that thethree groups had to begin at various stations to make the laboratory time effective, samples weregiven to the initial testing group to test. The group that began with testing moved to thesimulation station next.Once the three groups had completed the three different exercises at the three stations, they metand discussed their results and finding.
