Although the theoretical course has been developedto solve certain types of real-life problems involving fluids, unless one observes what they are,the knowledge is abstract. For this reason the Fluid Mechanics laboratory CE/ME 313,introduces the students through hands-on experiments, to several mechanisms seen in the theorycourse. Recently, the college of engineering through collaboration between its Center for Energyand Sustainability and Interactive Flow Studies Corporation acquired two educational interactiveflow visualization systems, namely FLOWCOACH and ePIV.

importantly, educators rely heavily on metaphors to facilitate teaching andlearning processes [35]. Martinez et al. [35] collected reflections from 50 experienced teachersand noticed that most draw on the idea of teaching and learning as a transmission of knowledge.A few consider it a constructivist endeavor or a social process. They add that integrating studiesof metaphors in instructional psychology and curriculum design can drive home the point thatmetaphors are like the blueprints of thinking about teaching and learning, and the blueprints weuse to shape the classrooms we build [35]. Studies exploring how metaphors are used forunderstanding and communicating abstract ideas are prevalent across disciplines. The nextsection will summarize the

This new commitment to design was basedon an interest in providing students with a significant experience in engineering designfrom problem definition and concept development to the construction and testing ofprototypes. It was also based on the desire to provide the majority of the mechanicalengineering students with the opportunity to work on meaningful industrially sponsoredprojects for which less than two semesters of time would be inadequate.BackgroundWhile developing the new semester based mechanical engineering curriculum it becameevident that by requiring an additional 3

Teachers would be paid an amount enticing enough to encourage them to forgo two oftheir short six-week summer.

This means that exams are 50-minutes long. In thisversion of the course a total of 10 class periods out of 40 were reserved for examinations. Thismeans that in-class instruction is reduced by 20% over a traditional course. To achieve this, thelecture material was modified to be more efficient and worked example problems were providedto students outside of class. Additionally, a strong focus was given to the development of freebody diagrams. Thus, free body diagrams were considered an integral component to obtaining aconceptual

The students were typically from middle-class backgrounds with good hands-on skills. They had an acquired intuition about howproducts worked and how they were manufactured but lacked a strong analytical knowledgebase. The post-Sputnik engineering science "revolution" that fostered a focus on science overapplication led to a period of increased emphasis on government sponsorship of engineeringscience research. The apprentice programs were discontinued and many of the hands -onlaboratories of the “old” curriculum were replaced with applied science and mathematicscourses. Industry connections
