However, there are also transformations that changes the shape of the graph, such asg(x) = 2f(x), or g(x) = f(3x).Quadratic Functions Another mathematical concept used in the demonstrations is quadratic functions.Students first learn that the height of an object in free fall follows this quadratic function:Where, is the height of the object (in meters) at any given time t (seconds), is the initialvelocity (meters per second), is the initial height, t is time, and is the gravity constant, 2which is 9.8 m/s .The time it takes the object reach its maximum height is given

Using the Voltage Cursor feature theNECC students were able to measure the decrease in intensity of the signal as the distancebetween the transducers in increased.

class room or laboratory.For an engineer in industry, a project is a sequence of tasks required to reach an objective.Typically, the objective is to design a device or process that has value to a customer (user). Theproject begins by defining a performance problem associated with an application and ends with adesign solution. The problem drives the learning required to complete the project. Managing theproject requires the engineer to demonstrate effective teamwork, clear communication and theability to balance the social, economic and environmental impacts of the project. Project-basedlearning (PBL) is based on the practice of solving problems. The concept of problem-basedlearning was first developed in the medical field in the mid-1950’s. It
EPICSEPICS is an engineering-centered, multidisciplinary, service-learning program at PurdueUniversity that has received national recognition. Students enrolled in the EPICS courses learndesign while they develop projects for local or global community partners. In the 2011-2012academic year, over 500 students from more than 70 majors within the College of Engineeringand across the university have participated in EPICS. This program is structured with student-leddivisions, each with 8-20 students, a faculty or industry mentor, and a graduate teaching assistant(TA). Each division has one or more not-for-profit agency/ies (such as a museum, governmentservice, charity, etc.) as a community partner(s). The students work with their communitypartner(s) to

The resultsshowed the students in her group their weaknesses in a format different from the in-class testsand verified that they did indeed need to study and that attendance in the study group isworthwhile.Study Group LogisticsAs described elsewhere8, students arrive at study groups to find that the mentor has organized theseating in the room to be in a U-shape with all chairs and desks facing the white board. Thementor takes a seat as if s/he is a part of the group. The mentor facilitates collaborative groupwork by opening communication and asking about problem areas from the lecture or homework.In the case of a group with students from several different course sections studying

in these steam engines by JohnSmeaton between 1765 and 1772 increased the engines’ efficiency to around 1.4%, a noteworthyincrease. Even after the more famous, and more efficient, Boulton & Watt engines weredeveloped in the 1770’s, the simpler and very reliable Newcomen engines continued to be builtfor the purpose of pumping water from coal mines up until the 1820’s. Coal mines had a readysupply of unsellable “slack coal” as the fuel which influenced the decision about whichtechnology to use. The last operational Newcomen engine was retired around 1930.1design process overviewThe project followed the methodology set forth in Engineering Design – A Project-BasedApproach, by Dym and Little.4 Figure 3 – A

Do we have a fullunderstanding of what happened? As a follow-up to the ethics material presented in lectures anddiscussion section, students were given an assignment to reflect on the proceedings (AppendixA).

engineering programs in recentyears. Since 1990’s, RP has been used in engineering education to enhance design relatedcourses4. It became an essential part of the design and manufacturing curricula, ranging fromfirst-year design and drafting courses to senior-year capstone projects5-9. It has also been used intwo-year engineering program10. RP is considered as one of the “new frontiers” of manufacturingeducation, along with 3D scanning and reverse engineering11. In order to address the emergingdemand of RP technicians on the job market, Patton and Liu12 developed “train the trainers”workshops. In addition to using RP in regular engineering curricula, Strzelect and Vavreck7reported using RP to support broader mission of the campus, including

She also found that extracurricular activities were important inmeeting the BOK2 outcomes, that a student’s role(s) within design teams impacts the perceptionof importance for certain outcomes (e.g. a team project manager is more likely to assign higherimportance to Leadership and Project Management), and “as students gain a better understandingof the attributes desired for civil engineering professionals, they will be better equipped to seekout experiences and courses to develop these skills.”15As ASCE notes, it is the student, the “fledgling engineer,” who is responsible for meeting theappropriate level of achievement for each outcome as he or she prepares for professional
