Sensing (S) or Intuition (N). The third categoryis about the way one takes decisions. Does he/she base decision on logic and consistency(Thinking (T)) or on people and circumstances (Feeling (F))? The last category is about howpeople deal with the outside world. Do they prefer to get things decided (Judging (J)) or stayopen to new information and options (Perceiving (P))? When the preference in each category isrecorded, the personality type is expressed as a code with four letters, one from each of the fourcategories. That leads to sixteen different personality types. This test is widely used in Americancompanies to form teams and it is used more than twenty years to form engineering designteams.12 However, some studies have shown that the Myers

The homework exercises provided here have been well-received bystudents and allow them to see the integrated effects of the components of a plant to its overallperformance. Even aspects of nuclear power are introduced using student-written computersolutions to generate numerical results as opposed to rote learning from a textbook or from aslide presentation in class. The calculation aspect of presenting the material in this way holdsstudent interest and gives them a more foundational understanding of the physical effects ofvarying system parameters.References[1] S.

As an example of the latter kind of reasoning, onestudent wrote, “ω3dB = 1/RC = 1/(10 kΩ)(15.9 nF) = 6.3 * 103 s-1. f3dB = ω3dB / 2π = 1001 Hz ≈1 kHz. So the input voltage is attenuated by a
