UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINAThe Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of South Carolina (DME-USC) iswell positioned to participate in promoting and developing this emerging engineering educationfield. DME-USC established a course for teaching microcontrollers to mechanical engineeringstudents – EMCH 367, www.me.sc.edu/courses/emch367. The course consists of four majorcomponents: (a) classroom instruction; (b) homework; (c) laboratory; (d) project. The classroominstruction is focused on instilling in students the basic knowledge related to programming andusing the microcontroller. Part of the classroom instruction is performed in a computerlaboratory, where the students interact with simulation software on a one-on-one basis

. Unlike most upper-year engineering courses, our computer networks course isrelatively light on mathematics, and instead focuses on protocols, algorithms, and systems-levelthinking. Lectures and tutorials are dedicated to teaching the relevant concepts and problem-solving skills, while laboratory sessions are centered on hands-on design and analysis. Studentsare paired for the labs and are required to complete two large socket programming projects in theC language. In this section, we discuss the key challenges that we faced in the online delivery ofour course. We analyze these challenges, explain the actions we took to address them, and drawconnections to the literature.The first challenge we faced on the teaching side was determining how to

In the current economic situation, many schools are faced with budgetary shortfalls anddeclining research funding. In order to avoid cutting back programs or eliminating programs, itis tempting to use graduate assistants to teach classes when regular faculty are not available.Unless done properly, this could result in ineffective

Laboratory sessions are expensive, long to prepare and theirefficiency is sometimes affected by parasitic phenomena that make the interpretation oflaboratory results difficult. The use of films is also long and costly. In addition, films make itimpossible to separate the different phenomena that come into play in a manufacturing

These hands-on laboratories canbe much more powerful than demonstrations and lecturing – the students can actually feel thegyroscopic moments generated. These demonstrations were assessed through two problems onthe final examination. The first asked what happens to the motion of a gyroscope when you pushgently on the outer gimble. The second involved the action-reaction moments involved withgyroscopic motion (e.g., if you are riding your bike and lean to the left, which way to do youhave to push on your handlebars).
