. Throughthis analysis we will be able to identify trends in how students are using resources so that we can makebetter recommendations to future students. In addition, the concerns about barriers to resources, orresources that students would like to become available can be turned into practical solutions in theclassroom. In addition to the things that can be learned from the qualitative data contained in this survey,we hope to construct both peer networks and resource networks based on the data using concepts fromsocial network analysis.References:[1] B.

This means answering questions such as:  Which type of motor is the most appropriate for the given application?  At what speed(s) should be motor be operating?  What torque is required for the application?  What environmental issues need to be considered in selecting the motor?An initial foray into motor selection was briefly discussed as part of a larger discussion involvingworking with industrial partners [10].
