Of the twelve responses in part (a), sevenindicated a perceived increase in problem solving ability by the student. Two of the commentsalso mentioned the relationship between the assignments and knowledge gained in previouscourses. Of the nine responses in part b, three indicated that the workload was too heavy, threesuggested that the lectures should be more closely aligned with the analysis problems, and onesuggested more guidance on problem validation.

It is well-built withquality materials and has proven to produce consistent results for industrial and otherapplications. The objective of this work was to develop a low-cost alternative to this tube foreducational use especially in developing countries where cost is a primary issue for promotinghands-on educational activities. We wanted to use a PVC tube, an inexpensive speaker, studiomicrophones and off-the-shelf materials for the construction of the tube.

EMI’s industry-leading R&D efforts aim to provide substantial efficiency improvements. EMI’s focus is the machining of difficult-to-machine materials, such as titanium, nickel alloys, stainless steels, compacted-graphite iron (CGI), hardened steel, and abrasive composites, and applications like energy efficient chipping/chopping of cellulosic biomass.

The thirdstep is a structured team discussion, reviewing the data collected and talking about differentmodels of interpretation (see Figure 3). The final step in the process is a homework assignmentthat requires students to synthesize their learning and make a choice for how they would proceedas a character in the story.

The major attracts students with diverse backgrounds and a wide variety ofacademic interests. It is uncommon for students to choose to study mechanical engineeringbecause of their interest in programming or modeling. This often leads to a disconnect betweenthe students and the instructor, which can create an intimidating classroom environment. Thework presented here is driven by these findings.A new programming course has been developed to address the problems existing in the originalcourse model, which include: (a) the course being offered outside of an engineering department,(b) the extreme variability in the
