However, the 2D nature of a standardmonitor, keyboard, and mouse, tend to restrict interaction with complex 3D models

; however, in many cases the improvement efforts have not beensystematic, well documented or geared toward the specific requirements of EC2000. Most pre-EC2000 improvement efforts have been directed at course improvement, student satisfaction,and curriculum logistics. They are not sufficient evidence to prove the case for compliance withEC2000, which ask for specific documentation and evidence of improvement relative to theobjectives and outcomes, not simply generic improvement.Due in part to ABET’ s reluctance to be prescriptive, specific definitions of the important terms inthe criteria--objectives and outcomes—have not been provided to date in any official documents.As is evident in some self-studies, in published literature, and even among

The experiences of Tufts University are used as specific examples of how communityservice learning has enriched the traditional environmental engineering curriculum. Whetherapplied in courses, in student-driven or university-funded initiatives, or in independent projects,community service learning has benefited students, the instructors, and participatingcommunities. As a result, community service learning projects carry more meaning andencouraged greater learning because they involve a real problem

The conveyor runs for 15 s,time needed to roll the ball back to the pitcher. As the conveyor turns on, the pulley system ispushed back into position to be ready for the next pitch.Sample Student Project: Hot Tea MachineThe goal of this project was to design a machine that, with the push of a remote, makes a hot cupof tea of the user’s choosing. Apart from pushing a remote button, the user must load a tea bag oftheir choice to the servomotor’s wing and fill the separate water container from time to time.

To assess this prototype’s GUI usability, three medicalexperts operated the GUI to assign a cohort of patients and then report their satisfaction level,using a short survey, for both ease-of-use and perceived decision accuracy.Results:The developed algorithm and GUI were tested for accuracy and usability.
