In the course of the project,the coffeemaker is disassembled, analyzed, and reassembled. This type of learning activity hasbeen used extensively in Engineering Curricula and has been labeled a Disassemble / Assemble /Analyze (DAA) activity.12 Within industry, a key purpose of DAA activities is to promote newand better design ideas.13This manufacturing cost analysis project can also been seen through the lens of a Kolb Cycleprocess.14 The Kolb Cycle is defined as a cycle of concrete experience, reflective observation,abstract conceptualism and active

topic distribution between homeworks 2, 3, and 4.Only 3 pre-midterm homeworks in 2009.The lack of difference in the homework scores is not entirely surprising. Students often worktogether and always had ample opportunity to receive help during office hours. In addition, thenumber of students is small to determine statistically significant differences.The performance on the exams may be a more accurate reflection of students’ learning (seeTable 4). The midterm exam covered content from the inverted part of the 2011 class. Eachyear the exact questions on the midterm change, but are in general very similar (data from earlierversions of the course from 1997 to 2005 is not shown). The average and median studentperformance in 2011 was not any better

also be thought of as “a process of understanding the effects of oppression andleveraging resources to act against it.”2 The “critical” aspect of critical engineering agencyincludes students becoming critics of science in general through critical thinking as well as beingself-reflective critics of their own behaviors and beliefs. This theoretical framework specificallyrefers to a student’s perception of their ability to change their world through everyday actions aswell as his/her broader goals in life. Critical engineering agency involves an understanding ofengineering and engineering related processes, the skills and modes of inquiry associated withengineering, self-identification as possessing certain degrees of expertise in one or more

Personally, I was able to change my attitudes and beliefs about learning and develop a greater awareness of myself as a student and a teacher. A variety of social skills were developed thanks to the opportunity to work in groups and teams.

'zero' coordinates set.The spindle is moved to the test start position and the QC20-W is mounted between two kinematicmagnetic joints. A simple G02 and G03 command program is required to start the test. The“classic” test calls for the machine tool to perform two consecutive circles; one in a clockwisedirection, the other counter-clockwise. In practice there is an extra arc added before and after thetest circle to allow for the machine accelerating and then slowing down. By using extension barsthe test radius can be selected to reflect the size of the machine and the sensitivity to particularissues (e.g. large radius circles are better at highlighting machine geometry errors, smaller circlesare more sensitive to servo mismatch or lag).

morerandom variables are cointegrated if each of the series is themselves non-stationary, and theyhave a long run equilibrium relationship among the variables [15]. The purpose of theCointegration tests is to determine whether a group of non - stationary series is cointegrated or not. We have to examine whether or not there exists a long run relationship between variables (stableand non-spurious co-integrated relationship) that based on ADF test resulted as non-stationary timeseries.

Another student mentioned that paying for internet services can be prohibitivelyexpensive, especially for those who do not live close to campus due to financial constraints.Therefore, remote lab developers should prioritize creating tools that are less dependent onresources that may be inaccessible to some students.

The MATLAB activities aimed to reducestudents’ intrinsic load by designing student activities primarily based on hidden code modes,emphasizing interaction rather than mathematical research. Therefore, there was only a
