Copyright 2013, American Society for Engineering EducationClearly, the early identification of the correct trade-space and technology combinations requiresusing logic, organization and transparency before any baseline design can be selected. This approachwill provide the greatest insight into the design problem within the time assigned.The process of rectifying thus reducing the theoretical trade-space available consists of: (a)Formulate a classification scheme for the design options available. (b) Focus the DB/KBdevelopment and team learning on relevant design trade-studies. (c) Harmonize pre-selected tradeswith

ENGR 102 immediately became popular with our junior and seniorstudents, who were pleased to use an engineering-related course to help fill their university corerequirements. We feel that ENGR 102 had an immediate and sustained positive impact on theFE metric scores associated with ABET outcome (f), starting in academic year 2007. While our Page 23.1013.9department cannot take credit for this improvement, the results help to validate our confidence inthe FE metric associated with this ABET outcome.ConclusionsThe FE exam is an accepted and vital part of the assessment program

trainings on engineering, communication, and socialawareness.The project was a great example of developing suitable technology to the targeted population.From the project, the students learned that the best technology is not necessary the mostadvanced technology, but the most suitable one. They did not need to use state-of-the-artcomponents and materials. On the contrary, they are limited to the most primitive means.Nevertheless, they still need to apply their engineering skills to solve demanding problems. Forexample, they had to build a bomb calorimeter to test the calorific value of the briquette. Theyalso need to develop a systematic way to find out the minimum pressure of making a usablebriquette. They also learned the importance of having
