States.The metric system continued further definition of various units over the years and addedfundamental standards with new technology, such as electricity, magnetism, and light. In 1960,the metric system was renamed, the International System of Units (SI). In 1975, Congresspassed the Metric Conversion Act which established the United States Metric Board tocoordinate and plan the increased use of the metric system in the U.S. This board was disbandedin 1982. In 1988, Congress included additional metrication language in the Omnibus ForeignTrade and Competitiveness Act. This legislation required federal agencies to use metric systemin “procurement, grants, and other business-related activities” by the end of 1992, except forhighway and construction

Precisely because of theholistic nature of a well-designed capstone, all SOs can reasonably be expected to be manifestedvia completion of a capstone project. This confluence accounts for the suitability of the capstoneor Senior Project course as a medium for assessment of the program.Our BS-CS program utilizes assessment of SOs in the Senior Project course as one component ofits assessment plan. Other components include course-embedded assessment via quizzes andapplication of specialized rubrics to course artifacts; in addition, indirect measures are obtainedby surveying students, instructors, alumni and employers.

key factor that allows students to connect their experiences with the concepts theylearn and their future practices is learning through performing projects. Students in this studyreported that technical content combined with the process of learning and applying knowledge tosolve a problem was important. In fact, students saw processes such as planning, thinking incertain ways, learning how to learn on their own, and doing research as important as acquiringtechnical knowledge. These kinds of knowledge can best be acquired through working on bothwell- and ill-structured problems.AcknowledgementThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.DUE 1003589.

This designwould reduce the number of drivetrain components, thus improving the overall reliability andefficiency. This option also reduces the drivetrain weight since the mechanical differentials arenot used7. Therefore, the team designed an electric drive control system to test its feasibility andreliability.Design ProcessThe design process mainly followed the P&B method8; including four phases, namely, planningand clarifying the task, conceptual design, embodiment design, and detail design.Planning and Clarifying the TaskThe first phase of the P&B Method involves product planning as well as the

In SR simulation, student specifies the T1, T2 values, an excitation angle, the repetitiontime (TR), echo time (TE), and repetition number. Student will observe the vector animation andFID that is generated. In SE simulation, student specifies number of spins, e.g. 10, off-resonancefrequencies randomly distributed between -50 Hz and 50 Hz. Student can observe the animationof all these spin vectors and the aggregated FID signals. In particular, this simulation is veryhelpful in explaining the divergence and refocus of magnetization on x-y plan in SE. Thisexercise is also very long, and it usually takes students two

samplesize, the results indicate that self-assessment can be used as a tool to monitor the achievement ofcritical outcomes. Regular and periodic self-assessment from students might help an instructor tocome up with an early intervention plan to reconfigure course content or to change contentdelivery methods in order to enhance the possibility of achieving critical learning outcomes. Thisis important since the direct assessment of specific outcomes is typically done at the end of thesemester, or during program assessment, which is often too late for students who have alreadytaken courses in which outcomes have not been achieved.
