Through the dedicated curriculum, the theorycourses were specifically designed to accommodate students from different undergraduatedegrees and real-world experiences. The project courses, tightly integrated with the theorycourses, accommodate the variety of directions the students may take. The dedicated space andassociated 3D printing technologies were designed and continue to evolve to support thecurriculum. And the dedicated faculty are aware of the many moving parts of the program,allowing for “real time” adjustments to reflect what is happening in technical and businessarenas.What

The necessary deductive-style teaching of accepted engineering design steps Designettes in Capstone: Characterizing the Impact of Early Design Experiences in Capstone Education with Emphasis on Designette Project Choiceshould be balanced with the inductive learning of the students. The challenge lies in allowingthe experiences of the students’ inductive learning to occur with enough time to reflect and buildtheir cognitive framework.Finally, a look at the Kolb cycle (Figure 1) and its application to the design curriculum andcapstone program could be informative.

In the pilot program, students did not take classes but spent their timesolving complex industry problems that were not well-defined like theoretical textbookproblems. It was found that graduates emerged with integrated technical/professional knowledgesupported by ABET competencies. This initial study indicated that the aforementioned project-based learning program was more beneficial to students’ attainment of

This instrument allows for themeasurement of Beam and Diffuse irradiance as well as reflected irradiance. A Pyranometer isan instrument that has a 180° field of view so it absorbs all the solar irradiance from itssurroundings and delivers a digital reading that can be logged with a micrologger (not shown).The micrologger used is capable of measuring a change in voltage as low as one microvolt. Thespecific reason in which this instrument and supporting equipment were purchased was to allowfor solar panels to be tested during similar solar conditions. This validated our work by makingsolar

However, by combining the trainers and controllers to perform the sametasks, this puts emphasis on the differences between technologies by solving the same problemson different equipment. This also adds familiarity to equipment that can translate into real worldpractical uses.ConclusionsThe cost of training systems often carries a high price tag when purchased as an off-the-shelfproduct. This cost is reflected not necessarily by the raw value of the parts, but by the integrationof the plant and the controllers along with any necessary specialized software. This effect iscompounded when multiple training setups are needed for

Page 26.84.4To limit the scope of the design, we will assume the amplifier is feeding a known, highimpedance load. Therefore the amplifier’s output impedance may be approximated by RD //1/yos. The output conductance of many FETs is frequently an underspecified or, more often,unspecified parameter2,5 because it is frequently assumed to be sufficiently high as to not affectthe overall output impedance of most FET applications 6. For the same reasons, many simulationmodels do not reflect accurate values of yos as a function of bias conditions. In practice, theoutput conductance of an FET does affect the performance of amplifiers biased at lower draincurrents (ID). But without better data to determine what the output conductance is at lower
