professor wants to test his research hypothesis by quantifying the bandwidth of human arm movement and comparing it between “healthy” subjects and stroke patients. His idea is to measure the acceleration of the wrist while the subject is flexing and extending the elbow joint on a table with an object of various size and weight in the hand (e.g. tennis ball, water bottle, etc.). With potential large-scale deployment/experiments in mind, he desires a relatively inexpensive setup that can be easily operated by a lay person who is not necessarily technically oriented; the system should be operable, for example, by a nurse with, say, one hour of tutorial at most.

In the case where an engineering student will have to tutor difficult technicalsubjects, they gain no confidence and in fact, do not relate well to discussions on, forexample, humanities based topics in a simulated tutorial game. Often they express concernthat it is not possible to function in this interactive manner with a focus on scientific concepts.Student tutors find it difficult to bridge the gap between the course and the real thing. Asimilar phenomenon is often the cause of problems with staff development courses.It has been shown that tutees of trained tutors can do significantly better than tutees ofuntrained tutors6.

Wilkerson & Gijselaers have defined Problem-basedlearning as minds-on, hands-on, focused, experiential learning. The artistic science ofmeasurement and control is normally referred to as Experimentation and Instrumentation. Thevaried attributes of physical systems are usually measured using well designed instruments.
