sophisticated type of thinking. In 1997, Kinsner considered the value of usingcomputer programs for undergraduate teaching to help solve field problems5. It was concludedthat the use of such computer packages in class settings improves students' comprehension andskills in solving field problems. There is a need to conduct a parallel study to investigate thepotential benefits of using engineering software(s) in pavement engineering courses at theundergraduate level.Description of DARWin Software In simple terms, Design, Analysis, and Rehabilitation for Windows (DARWin) is acomputerized pavement design tool based on the AASHTO Guide for the Design of Pavement

The accurate correspondence of simulation, analysis and experimental enhancesstudent confidence in the learning process.AcknowledgementUSD Institutional Review Board approval was obtained for the Fall 2012 semester.IV.

tunnel for either atour or for actual usage. With the exception of 2012’s program, the wind tunnel’s testsection was large enough to place a cycle with an athlete into the tunnel. The girls wereallowed to stand inside the tunnel as well as observe a variety of flow visualization andaudio (they could hear when the drag was reduced) techniques used to determineaerodynamic drag.The athlete stationed in the wind tunnel on a cycle tested a baseline (unmodified helmet)and each student team’s modified helmet. In 2012, a wind tunnel with a smaller testsection was used. Each helmet was tested on a Styrofoam wig head holder.

we might not need 10 often, itis handy to note that π ≈ 10, with the error on the logarithmic axis being less than 0.6 percentof the distance used to represent a decade (i.e., about 0.022 in for a 4-in decade). So mark π at themidpoint of the interval representing a decade, and mark 2π at 8/10 the distance along the decade.If the axis were, say, the frequency axis on a Bode plot, then marking it in rad/s on one side and inHz on the other is quick and simple, and it allows for perfectly easy conversion between the twounits.Proceedings of the 2013 Midwest Section Conference of the American Society for Engineering Education 6Once it is
