Youmay draw this (in isometric or perspective) in your logbook with pencil or use software.Neatness and clarity will be appreciated. The design course has a sketching component. Allstudents draw in lecture and have weekly exercises to practice drawing in isometric, orthographicand perspective. A portion of the online modules has how-to video instructions.

designlongevity stems from its low cost, ease of use, and stable operation2. Common applications arethe generation of pulses, oscillator waveforms, and timing signals. External resistors andcapacitors control timing delays and operating frequencies. A versatile application circuit usingthis IC requires a power supply (e.g. a 9-V battery), a breadboard, a few resistors, capacitor(s),and an output device. With this IC providing versatile functions in a low-cost and easy-to-use package, circuits canbe constructed quickly to address such questions as “What makes a light blink and a buzzersound?” or “What happens internally when a button is pushed?” Design, e.g. changing theoutput function and changing the circuit timing, can be incorporated with simple

well known in academia.Housner and his students [3] at Cal Tech in the 1940’s and 1950’s experimentally determined thecritical load of a member by means of linearly correlating the square of the frequency and theload; the extrapolated regression line at zero frequency represents the critical buckling load ofthe member. On the theoretical side, the most acknowledged achievements are traced back toTimeshenko [4] who used differential equations to show that as the loading of a columnapproached Euler buckling, the frequency of the first mode approaches zero. Recently Carpinteri[5] presented a solution using potential energy that is well-tailored to student understanding. Hisderivation uses a single degree-of-freedom system similar to that shown in
fellows will likely teach undergraduate andgraduate courses. An understanding of reform-based practices could empower fellows to bethoughtful about selecting appropriate learning opportunities in their own practice. The findingspresent an opportunity for institution leaders to consider implementing strategies favorable topre-faculty development. Secondly, science educators, untrained in the field of engineering, arebaffled by the addition of the engineering practices contained within the U. S. Next GenerationScience Standards (NGSS).6 Knowledge of how engineers execute engineering design taskscould inform the application of engineering activities at the K-12 level.Faculty Teaching PracticesUniversity science, mathematics, and engineering faculty

All options require anoral examination. Seven core courses, one mandatory, comprise the coastal engineeringconcentration. The student may select elective courses from among a large variety of civil andenvironmental engineering graduate courses. This flexibility enables the graduate student totailor coursework to their major civil engineering area(s) of career interest. Laboratory facilitiespotentially available to students are briefly described. The program has a coastal natural disasterfocus and was established as part of the Coastal Hazards Center of
