senior students and have completed a course in Statisticsand a bulk of engineering sciences.Deming [3] said that ‘industry in America needs thousands of statistically minded engineers,chemists, doctors of medicine, purchasing agents and managers’ and this is more applicableto any country that aspires to make industrial progress. There is a firm unguided belief amongstudents that CNC machines produce components without any variation. Considering these itwas decided that the experiment would be ‘the measurement of process capability of an NCmachining process’.2.1 Nature of ExperimentsFeisel and Rosa [4] in their thought-provoking article entitled ‘The Role of the Laboratoryin Undergraduate Engineering Education’ identify three basic types of

believes that educating the next generation of professionals will play a pivotal role in making sustainability a standard practice. Page 26.1644.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Use of Student Self-Assessment to Reinforce the Project Control CycleAbstractWhen attempting to teach the project control cycle, the importance of ‘evaluate’ is difficult toconvey to students yet is critical to students’ academic and professional success. This paperrepresents a qualitative case study conducted with freshman construction management

doctoral courses, covering all academic fields, fromEngineering to Art History. Still not fully understood is whether this emerging MOOC marketwill be a disruptive innovation through all academic areas or if only focused areas will bealtered. This paper utilizes a Systems Engineering lens to explore whether MOOCs should beconsidered a disruptive innovation or if they are just another teaching method to support thecurrent educational market place. Although MOOCs may influence all educational levels, thispaper is focused on their impact on the undergraduate arena. A review of the current state andattributes of MOOCs will be presented along with a descriptive analysis if this emergingtechnology has the potential to be a truly disruptive innovation

organizations' entity data. Nowadays, massivequantities of heterogeneous data are collected, manipulated, analyzed, and transferred rapidly [4, 5, 8,and 9].With the advent of Big Data comes the risk of greater security breaches as data volumes increase. Manycompanies are still trying to evaluate the potential of Big Data, let alone investigate the risks associatedwith Hadoop and the Cloud. Big data does bring new security challenges to the table, such as the fact thatmost existing security solutions we use in the traditional database and data processing approaches worldmight not work in this environment. The main reasons for this are the scale, speed and variety of data.Most existing security solutions were not built with Big Data in mind even most of

the device, and many programming languages such as Java, C, Python,and Scratch lay a foundation for ingenuity and craftsmanship in competitions and events wheregroups of like-minded dabblers and inventors gather for mutual co-creation.3The first section of this paper gives a full description of the Raspberry Pi, an overview of all ourhardware and software modifications, and the order they will be completed in. The secondsection walks through all of these steps to successfully complete the project. The final section ofthis paper discusses the results of this project, the implications it has for engineering ineducation, and concludes with how to move forward with this project for future modifications
