The students were also asked to verify and report their obtained values against thosereported in the literature as much as possible. Additionally, the students were also asked toidentify the sources of error in their experimental model that would have resulted in deviations(if any) of their calculated friction coefficient values. Majority of the students (greater than 90%)were able to report values and reflect upon their results and the deviations they observed.Considering that this is not a controlled laboratory experiment where all the equipment andparameters are strictly controlled, the simple experimental models built by the students workedquite well to

It is difficult to evaluate the feasibility of specific audio inputmechanisms in the development laboratory since we lack the ability to reliably simulate real-world conditions (such as background noise). Data gathered from real-world testing will besignificantly more informative. We will work with test subjects to ensure that a variety of audioinput mechanisms are trialed in a variety of cases and gather users’ feedback. We believe thiswill lead to the identification of an additional design criteria with regard to ensuring a practical,high-quality audio input.ConclusionsWe identified and presented six major design objectives for an augmented reality

The paper describes thecontent and timeline for the implementation of seven project management modules in the two-semester capstone course starting in the 2018-19 academic year.Capstone: Ideal for Project Management InstructionThe capstone course is a project-based learning experience that attempts to mirror a real-worldproblem with open-ended design projects. Thus, students are expected to combine and applyknowledge gained from previous courses and laboratory work.

In the firstiteration of the course design, class time was devoted largely to instructor-led demonstrationsand student practice limited to the laboratory sections of the course. Pedagogically, theseparation rested on the assumption that students would need to have these skills modeled by anexpert before they could apply it for themselves in the lab sections.

We present a laboratory project designed to stress this point to students taking a first-year graduate introduction to microsystems. The pilot group found the results surprising andcounter-intuitive. It appears that the project was instrumental in clarifying key concepts inmicrofluidics. IntroductionAfter several decades in which microsystems research mainly addressed electromechanicalsystems [1], the focus has begun to shift to fluidic systems. This shift is driven primarily bypotential application of microsystems to chemistry, biology and medicine [2]. An introductorycourse in
