.• Can I ask a particular student a question?Simplex Method for Linear Programs• Obtain the solution. The identity matrix identifies basic variables, which have the value of the right hand side. The other variables are nonbasic and have a 0 value. 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1• Select the most negative column based upon the coefficient in the objective row, called improving column.• Perform ratio test (divide RHS by improving column, a value less than or equal to 0 in the improving column equals infinity). Select minimum of ratio test for the row• Perform a pivot, which creates a new

Identify an evaluator in advance2. Match the evaluation plan with the project goals • Objectives should be stated in measurable terms • Expected outcomes should identify specific observable results for each goal • development of measurable questions may take several iterations with your evaluator3. Design the evaluation to provide evidence about what is working and where adjustments and

provide betterunderstanding of the process capabilities and mechanical properties of the MS 300 produced by DMLS-HM for mold industry application. Keywords: Capstone, Undergraduate Design, Additive Manufacturing, Undergraduate Research 1. IntroductionAdditive Manufacturing (AM) is defined by ASTM as the “process of joining materials to make objectsfrom 3D model data usually layer upon layer, as opposed to subtractive manufacturing technologiessuch as traditional machining” (ASTM 2012). Initially, the mission of this innovative technology was tobuild prototypes quickly for modeling and testing purposes, but the technology advanced quickly, andapplications have widened into mold industry, medical, sculpture, architecture, manufacturing

focused on obtaining thecorrect numerical answer, regardless of how the problem was set up or what process a studentused. Therefore, the instructor developed a structured problem-solving template that was used forin-class examples, in-class work, and homework. This paper explains the implementation of thestructured homework system and survey results from students who took the course with eitherthe online homework system or the new system.MethodsCourse Format: In Spring 2017 (online homework system) and Fall 2017 (new homeworksystem), the course was taught in a flipped format (Beichner 2008) in an active-learningclassroom and utilized team based learning (Michaelsen, Knight et al. 2002). Each class meetingconsisted of: 1) reading quiz, 2) team

systems laboratory with necessaryphysical grid-level equipment, enough professional technical support and necessary training forstudents because of the restriction in laboratory funding and program curriculum. Althoughpower system simulation programs are widely used in undergraduate education of power grids,simulation is not enough for students to obtain experimental experience.In this paper we present the potential industrial resources which can be used for power systemsexperiments in undergraduate education. The contents are organized in the following sections:(1) developments in power systems laboratories, (2) digitization of power grids, (3) onlineinformation and data of power grid, (4) student learning outcomes, and (5

engineering specific mechanics of solids course.this study is to identify patterns in the way expert and noviceengineers approach problems to better inform future Problem Solving Session-research in the field of engineering mechanics. A complex and unique engineering problem was created with the following qualities:Research questions: 1) Include basic engineering concepts found in a mechanics of solids course1) How do experts approach demanding engineering 2) Be presented in a way in which an expert’s intuition alone cannot be used toaaproblems? formulate a solution.2) How do students approach
