Focus: Industrial EngineeringFigure 3. Industrial Engineering Demonstration: Motorized Conveyor Belt, Photogate Sensor,and Supporting Circuitry. This demonstration highlights industrial engineering in a manufacturing environment.Mechanical engineering is included as a secondary focus, as product design overlaps closely withmanufacturing and factory planning. The project application is as follows: after undergoing amechanized process, a product is placed on a conveyor belt to be transported to the next, humandriven, manufacturing process. The students are directed to implement a Vernier Photogatesensor to stop the conveyor belt and signal a pause in production until the product has beenremoved by the human operator. The intended effect is

that ideainto actions requires planning. So before one can write any code, or design any system,one has to take the time to explore the possible techniques and technologies. The mainchallenge for non micro-controller based TEG systems is that the utilization efficiency ofthe energy is low, a large amount of the generated energy may be wasted. Hence there isa potential need for an energy management system which can acquire, store and deliverenergy efficiently, with minimum energy wastage. With proper mentoring, capable tutelage,and guidance, these burgeoning and talented young students will contribute to the bestpractices in implementing future system design and apps development.ResultsSo far we have used this series of modular design projects

subject. An additionallearning opportunity that enhances student learning is the ability to work on small portions of along-term project. The instructor in this environment acts as a facilitator to provide guidancethroughout the design process rather than a director of a classroom. Due to the great variety ofPBL activities, research in this area has revealed that there is generally no universal model forPBL [4]. Without a universal model for PBL, this suggests that the planning, managing, enacting,and assessing projects specifically designed for PBL is a challenging problem. On the flip-side,PBL has great impact on self-directed learning skills [5]: Allowing students to workcollaboratively during the research and implementation phases of design

Next, this same process was repeated with any classesdedicated to material review in preparation for major assessments, to include the finalexamination. The next step in restructuring was to combine complementary lessons in a fashionthat did not overwhelm students with new material. While the previous actions were relativelysimple to execute across all course subjects, this particular step relied heavily on instructorknowledge of the curriculum and individual lesson plans. Not surprisingly, decisions made atthis juncture appear to be the most identified for potential changes during end of course facultyreviews.

engineering students should possess to successfully enter the labormarket. In the systematic review of Passow and Passow [4], planning and time management,problem-solving, communication and teamwork were identified as highly important byengineers. Identified as less, but still important, were ethics, lifelong learning, taking initiative,thinking creatively, and focusing on goals. Does this mean that engineering students needmore teamwork skills than lifelong learning skills? Or do students need to finish theireducational program with an advanced level mastery of lifelong learning and an expert levelmastery of teamwork? These questions raise the need to not just investigate the importanceof the competencies but also of the competency levels required

The comparison map highlighted that the trainee had the necessary competency in regardsto the actions needed for a successful change plan. However, lacked the knowledge of theprocess flow to implement the strategy.
