to formally systemize acceptable approximations ofthe unit impulse function, perhaps by assigning appropriate weights for each of the widelyknown assessment activities, such as exams, homework assignments, quizzes, and projects, aspart of modeling the learning assessment process.Finally, it is suggested that the modeled knowledge assessment/sampling system could becomplemented by two other systems, one preceding it, designated as the student learning system,and another one following it, and called the learning evaluation system. More importantly, theknowledge assessment system could be used to close the learning loop of the student, who mayuse the assessment output to “correct the error” between the desired engineering knowledgesignal and

To develop the definitions, we have surveyed and interviewed studentswho have been engaged in undergraduate research experiences in engineering, faculty memberswho have supervised undergraduate students working on research projects, and industrialrepresentatives who have employed recent engineering graduates. In this paper, we present theperspectives of these groups. With the perspectives of the three groups as input, the definitionsof a successful undergraduate research experience for non-elite engineering students have beendeveloped and are presented.In addition to these definitions of a successful undergraduate research

This manufacturing defect induces loads that depend on the rotating speedof the shaft, which, in turn, causes dynamic deflections that are speed-sensitive and could fallbeyond the allowable limits of deflection at the shaft's operating speed. The authors addressedthis potential manufacturing defect issue in a Machine Design class as a term project, which alsorequired students to transfer and apply content knowledge from their dynamics and vibrations’courses to come up with a viable design for the system in question.
