BendingAbstractMany engineering courses have lecture components but no laboratory component. Althoughlecture courses of this sort can be strengthened through the incorporation of active or problem-based learning, the addition of short, focused experiments can have a profound effect on studentlearning, motivation, and retention of knowledge. This paper describes the development of asmall, portable beam bending apparatus to highlight concepts of stress and strain in anundergraduate strength of materials course. The experiments are designed to target particularconcepts about which students typically have misconceptions. The apparatus was fabricated andimplemented in a single section of strength of materials, and preliminary data was gathered onstudent

real-worldproblems gives the students an understanding of how their experimental work relates to theirother courses and the world in general, which provides context and may increase motivation.Given the workload, a best practice may be implementing these methods incrementally ratherthan implementing a wholesale change in a course.The guided inquiry-based methods applied in this materials lab course can be applied in all typesof classes, but methods are most easily transferable to laboratory, design, and problem-basedproject courses. For future iterations of this course, we are redesigning the two structuredinquiry-based labs using guided inquiry approaches and will be continuing to collect data toassess their effectiveness.I.

work environments [1]-[6]. Among them, most prominently are writing andpresentation skills. A parallel curriculum addressing these non-scientific/technical skills isusually a strong contributor towards these goals. Another tool generally more directly controlledby science/engineering faculty is using courses in the discipline, especially laboratory courses, toemphasize writing components and/or presentation skills. Lab reports can serve as a very goodtool to sharpen writing skills or, more extensively, the skills needed to produce a coherent, wellthought, well-written scientific paper or technical report.A more comprehensive approach to different paths and philosophies for the teaching of writingskills and its balance can be found in the

The goal of this new coursestructure is to encourage creative thinking over this pattern matching behavior.Teaching MethodologyAt The Citadel, a Mechatronics course was developed to teach subject matter required for thedesign of systems which have electrical, mechanical, and programmable aspects.

For the last two decades, engineering schoolshave been offering distance courses over the Internet, which is a common method offacilitating distance courses. Since lab activities in engineering fields are a crucial part oflearning, providing same laboratory experience that on-campus students receive for distance-learning students has remained a challenge. This challenge consists of both the lack oflaboratory equipment and the limited availability of the instructor for assistance and checkoff.Electrical lab equipment, such as a function generator, oscilloscope, and power supply, areexpensive to purchase and maintain.

In this work, the lifecycle of a laboratory experiment/exercise is defined and analyzed withrespect to the concept of a product lifecycle. It is assumed that the product (in this case a lab) isdynamic, i.e. it changes with time, and that it is brought into existence due to technologicaladvancements, the technological push. The ten stages of a lab lifecycle are need, conception,funding, purchasing, installation, development, deployment, enhancements, maintenance
