When students areinvolved in conducting a research study, they also participate in writing the findings in the paperand therefore get a chance to become authors of scholarly research publications. 6. Student PerspectivesSeveral students that work on various projects in the lab were asked questions about the usabilityof the lab. Following are some of the questions and their responses. a) What are the benefits / dis-benefits of having the AERO lab on campus? “Providing a space for students to meet and have access to computer capable of CAD, a spacefor more advanced machine(s) to be

Students met once a week for twohours to go over the assigned knowledge area(s). Ideally, the faculty member who recorded thevideo segments came to the class that week and reviewed areas that students struggled with andanswered questions.

We came up with the idea to cut notches into plywoodpieces to create “fingers” that would support the individual modules and keep them separatedduring transportation. The pieces of plywood would be held in place by shelf support brackets.Then, to ensure the stability of the modules we would secure 2×4’s around the perimeter of theplywood. The end 2×4 was designed with a wing nut to be able to open and close the back endto remove and replace the modules for use. Pipe insulation sleeves would be used to cushion

The questions then tie the reading to ethicalphilosophies and help students evaluate the story’s and character’s outcomes in a structured way.However, these questions assume no prior discussion of formal ethical frameworks, and thusavoid the formal terminology such as utiliatarian, deontology, etc.In this article, we have chosen three short stories which
