priori categories.MethodologyVerbal Protocol Analysis (VPA) was used to analyze the cognitive strategies of students as theywere solving a design task. During VPA data collection, subjects are asked to think aloud whileperforming a task [15]. From participants’ verbal reports, we can gain insights into how subjectsgenerate and transform information about the problem, as well as how they go about developinga solution.Verbal Protocol Analysis has been used extensively since the 1970’s to study the cognitiveprocesses of engineering students [3, 5, 23, 27] as well as experienced designers [7, 10, 14]. AlthoughVPA is considered the most appropriate method to study the cognitive abilities and processes ofdesigners it is not an assessment tool

In general, the value of the constant in the Bernoulli equation is different on different streamlines. The streamlines in the experiment can be observed qualitatively by tracking the particles flowing with the fluid (water). Figure 2 shows a 3-image sequence captured 1/30 s apart. In this sequence it is possible to notice the movement of particles, as highlighted in Figure 1. PIV uses the position at different

The students were split almost evenly with 5.8%wanting an interdisciplinary major, 4.1% not sure which to choose between a mechanical and anelectrical major and 3.3% were interested in both a mechanical and an electrical major.

This course was chosen because previous work has demonstrated that hands-onexperiences in DSP courses can increase student’ s desire to learn5. Additionally, DSP laboratoryexercises are typically software based, not requiring any further hardware than student’ s personallaptops, which makes the mixed learning approach feasible6. Finally, the course possesses arelatively small student population from a variety of disciplines, making it a good choice forapplying this method.The studio laboratory exercises are designed to be
