The users can extract the final results, kinematics or forces, but there isno information about the equations used in the backend. The availability of equations, for instance,will greatly help their usage in course work. If more information is available, students can improvetheir understanding of the step-by-step process taught in lectures or illustrated in technical books.During homework and laboratory activities, a student must spend a lot of time trying to manuallyverify the correctness of their work.

Currentdesign curricula are expected to achieve many objectives, from teaching a process for solvingopen-ended problems, to improving communication skills, to serving as a platform for assessingthe entire curriculum. Design curricula around the country have many commonalities. Thispaper summarizes both the commonalities and unique features of engineering design curricula.Many of the objectives for design curricula will remain unchanged as design curricula reform;yet some will shift in priority, and methods for achieving particular objectives will likely change.The paper ends with discussion of what the future may hold.IntroductionNo longer is an engineer

Tewolde presented a method for improving studentmotivation in a microcontroller-based embedded systems course to enhance students’ role inactive learning [10]. The method consists of three tools, namely: laboratory assignments forpractical hands-on activities, “peer teaching” techniques, and self-proposal, which enablesindividual creativity.

Characterization and theme identification are made by analyzingprevious semesters’ reports for a total of 140 lab reports and pre-defining the themes for futureapplications. Observations may be made at each semester that do not fit into any of the pre-defined categories. For this reason, the themes will grow over the course
