Other titles in engineering economy have lower market shares than the included books.Note that reference #s are included here, but due to the large number of repetitive labels andreferences, the texts are simply referred to by author and edition.We have chosen to focus on the content of formal examples that are presented as part of eachchapter rather than homework problems for two reasons. First, it is much clearer which approachor approaches are being used. Second, since several texts have total problem sets ranging fromnearly a 1000 to over 1500, using problems as a basis would be overwhelming.In analyzing the examples, the first step was

The remainder of this section outlines the method ofENA. The details of how ENA was used to analyze the coaching sessions are provided inthe Results and Discussion section.To begin our ENA of co-occurrences of discourse elements (Table 1’s codes), we firstsubdivided the utterances of discourse into groups of utterances. These groups are calledstanza windows. The utterances within a window are assumed to be topically related. Inthis study, we examined conversations between students and coaches where students andcoaches are responding to each other’s previous discourse. As a result

The interactive material of course covers digital design topics not included in this paper for space reasons, such as creating sequential circuits to implement FSMs. Having its roots in 2014 rather than in the 1980's when digital design dealt with much smaller circuits, the material also strives to teach a modern view of digital design, going bottom up as before, but being sure to reach registertransferlevel design as promptly as reasonable. Boolean algebra Digital design is based on the mathematics and properties of Boolean algebra

Embedded systems have changed dramatically in recent decades. At their start in the 1970's and growth in the 1980's, embedded systems consisted of relatively simple microcontroller hardware, often programmed in lowlevel assembly language, to configure a few peripherals and interact with a few input/output pins. Today, improvements in speed, memory size, and power have changed the emphasis from hardware to software, with microcontrollers supporting tens of thousands of lines of code, perhaps programmed in C, often with concurrent tasks, interacting with dozens of peripherals and potentially hundreds of input/output pins in timemultiplexed manner, and dynamically changing

knowledge.” [19]We hypothesize that, like obtaining surface knowledge before engaging in problem-basedlearning, developing early student competencies in the skills underpinning engineering designwill lead to improvements in design projects in the later years of engineering students’ education.These underpinning skills ought not be restricted to mathematics and computation, but alsoinclude fabrication. We assert that these skills are best gained through overt training rather than“as needed” in the context of a project-based class.Literature Cited[1] K. T. Ulrich and S. D.

(45%).Most of the sailors were males (17 of 20). Based on the data provided by the sailors through theQualtrics online survey, six sailors of 20 were not aware of the CNO / OPNAV 41's “Print theFleet Initiative” within the U.S. Navy before the workshop. They expressed that there is a gap inthe current expertise within their organization to utilize additive manufacturing for naval purposes.The majority of sailors agreed that their overall knowledge on 3D printing and reverse engineeringsignificantly improved as a result of this workshop. They also noted that they would like to attendan extended version of the workshop, or even have it as a part of their regular naval training (a C-school for electronics technicians). Most of the workshop
