This initial investigation of individual teacherinterviews, when supplemented with this additional data, should allow us to investigate teachermotivation and perception of success more fully.Acknowledgements:The authors appreciate the contributions of the entire e4usa team.

assessments (i.e., particularexam questions pass rate, written reports, etc.). The report may not consider the learning processstudents had during their course(s) or throughout their undergraduate program. In other words,assessment-centric self-study reports are not concerned with existing pedagogical practices anddata on how and why engineering students achieve the desired competencies of the requiredoutcomes. Given the emphasis of ABET on continuous improvement, it is surprising, andantithetical to commonly accepted quality assurance and continuous improvement processes, thatABET processes do not formally require student perceptions of their achievement of the studentoutcomes. Although employers and faculty are both recognized as

If the value of the metric again is less than the established metric value, then the situation is considered to be a concern. The departmental faculty will at this time develop potential corrective action(s) that will be agreed upon by consensus. 6. For subsequent evaluation cycles: a.

What we didn’t expect was the large difference in faculty/studentperceptions of the importance of Attitude/Communication. While it may be more difficult toaddress, faculty and the university as a whole should pay greater attention to this domain if theywant to empower graduate students to be more successful in their graduate work.ReferencesBloom, B.

Figure 1. Kinematic diagram 2. Project Description The Whitworth quick-return mechanism is shown in Figure 1. The planar linkage has sixkinematic links and seven kinematic joints with one degree of freedom [9]. Link 3-4 and 1-6 areprismatic joints (sliders). The rest are rotational joints. Since the mechanism has one degree offreedom, the kinematic quantality including position, velocity, and acceleration of the linkage canbe calculated from input crank link 2’s position and angular velocity and acceleration by kinematicanalysis. The forward and backward time ratio can be calculated from Equation (1). If an external force acts on link 6 slider, other links’ reactions and the input toque on thecrank can be found by kinetic analysis

theDepartment of Engineering Technology at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock is noexception. Programmable logic was first introduced to this course in the late 1990’s, with thehardware consisting of simple Programmable Logic Devices (PLDs) and Complex PLDs(CPLDs). VHDL (Very high speed integrated circuit Hardware Description Language) wasselected as the programming language. This worked well, with students programming theirchips and incorporating them in circuits. The course was upgraded several years ago to useAltera chips and the Quartus II development platform, because the software from Cypresssemiconductor, which was used previously, no longer had the desired level of support.Microcontrollers are typically not included in a digital systems
