The course traditionally supported several majors and differentprogramming languages through separate sections, including the Fortran and C languages, with alecture and laboratory component that combined for 3 or 4 credits. Previous faculty memberstook different approaches about the content and learning objectives of the course, leading toinconsistent learning outcomes for students. This also made it difficult for departments to predictthe programming skills their students would have in future classes; invested

theend of this article). It is the inaugural experiment undertaken for this course, and it is typicallyperformed during the second week of an academic term since the necessary background materialis reviewed during the laboratory session of the first week. This activity lends itself well to thisplacement within the laboratory schedule because it involves the unforced (or ‘free’) vibration ofa single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system that is almost undamped, so it essentially illustratessimple harmonic motion. Also, it does not depend upon advanced concepts or principles whichare covered at later stages in the course, yet it is easy to perform and does not require expensiveequipment or elaborate instruments.Before they perform the experiment, the
