of a new embedded curriculumtargeted to powerful embedded processors. This includes the design of a brand-new seniorundergraduate course along with a comprehensive tutorial on high-performance embeddedprogramming. We provided students with carefully designed activities that emphasize theoptimal usage of powerful microprocessors for embedded applications. The students becameproficient in techniques to maximize the performance of an embedded application by optimizingthe use of computer resources via techniques such as parallelism and pipelining. The embedded curriculum was deployed in a classroom and a laboratory setting. The learningmaterials (course notes, assignments, laboratory experiments, step-by-step tutorials) are madefreely

development of the GUI interface using C- programming in Visual Studios, and the CET student oversaw the project management.- Project motivation: The topic was proposed by one faculty teaching the thermodynamics course. In the MET program, there are two mandatory thermodynamics courses. The second course in the thermodynamics sequence is Advanced Thermodynamics, a 4ch course, and comprised of a 3ch lecture component and a 1ch laboratory component. Like any course with a laboratory component, there is always a strong need to expand the learning experiences the students have in labs. Sometimes the resources in the labs are limited. In the case of gas power cycles, there are several hands-on experiments on the market, including an

quantify the effects that ERs have on students in these settings, by describing how well theyprovide instruction to students. The quality of these programs will be judged by the results ofstudies gathered in a literature review. The collected literature will also be used to define globaltrends in the current applications of ERs and in how educational tools are developing. Tocompliment this literature review, a survey will be distributed to instructors of robotics clubs inhigh schools to see if these programs align with global trends found in the literature review.Other goals of this study include identifying platforms and teaching methods that deserve moreattention for research and what platforms, tools, and methods have become outdated.1

Additionally, he has developed and taught fourteen different courses, many of which were in the areas of energy, sustainability, thermodynamics, dynamics and heat transfer. He has always made an effort to incorporate experiential learning into the classroom through the use of demonstrations, guest speakers, student projects and site visits. Dr. Kerzmann is a firm believer that all students learn in their own unique way. In an effort to reach all students, he has consistently deployed a host of teaching strategies into his classes, including videos, example problems, quizzes, hands-on laboratories

Another drawback of manufacturing education is the namerecognition.
