) of the Department of Engineering Technology at Miami University of Ohio. Thetrainer is composed of 4 different stages, namely: flavor selection, filling, capping and labeling.Two automated conveyor belts and a turntable are used to transport bottle(s) between the stages.The process starts with selection of a flavor from the three available flavors (Cola, Dew andRed).Once a flavor is selected, an empty coke bottle proceeds to the filling station and waits forthe filling valve to be activated. The bottle is then filled with the selected flavor and it proceedsto the capping station. It then travels to on to the labeling and exits the system once it is labeled.The stages are deployed in a distributed fashion in order to demonstrate the

Team membersrecognized what the literature on culture change has long described: that dissonance motivateschange (as in Festinger 1962). Team members often described culture change as their goal; in thesame sentence, they would indicate that they welcomed uncomfortable conversations becausethese conversations, when approached with openness and listening ears, drew out the best ideasand created a supportive team environment. On a larger scale, we see these discussions as beingconsistent with Bowe et al.’s (2003) recommendations relating to identifying contradictions

Since the 1990’s, Dr. Jupina has employed ”active learning” techniques both inside and outside of the classroom using various modalities, including the flipped-lab approach dur- ing the last five years. More recently, Dr. Jupina has also incorporated Entrepreneurial Minded Learning (EML) exercises into his sophomore and junior-level courses. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 “FLIPPED LAB” APPROACH IN ELECTRONICS DESIGN TO ENHANCE STUDENT LEARNING EXPERIENCE Department of Electrical & Computer

now, then it is going to be very difficult when each stateattempts to satisfy the energy needs through 100% natural renewable energy sources such assolar, wind and water.Interpretation of ResultsThe E3’s findings can offer some insight into the usefulness of rooftop PV in Pennsylvania.Assuming that Pennsylvania has a greater average sunlight than many other states, we canconclude that the results only encourage the use of rooftop PV in Pennsylvania. The small scaleinstallation threshold of 5000 KWh for California could be applied to small scale Pennsylvaniainstallations because of their comparable sun exposure. However, when considering the FederalITCs, both the contended conditions approach cost-effectiveness.ConclusionIt is undeniable that

is that we had more content than we couldreasonably address within time available for the course, so focusing on objectives and outcomeshelped us pare the material down to its most important components.A revised version of Bloom’s Taxonomy [3] was used to write learning outcomes and objectivesin measurable terms. As a result of an iterative process between SME and curriculum designers,course level learning objectives were aligned with the learning outcomes; likewise, module-levellearning objectives were aligned to course-level learning objectives to ensure that each learningmodule could help learners to achieve intended learning outcomes. To exemplify this point, thetable below lists learning outcomes, course-level objectives, and Module 1’s

The KEEN outcomes for thisactivity are for students to explore a contrarian view of an accepted solution, integrateinformation, identify opportunities, apply creative thinking, investigate the market, evaluatevalue and feasibility, and convey a solution.This assignment has been used to assess a
