The GE Series One was the first “shoe box” size PLC [12]. The PLC hardware included a rack of I/Os, a power supply with a hand-held programmer, a CPU module, a cassette tape port, and peripherals such as the printer interface unit, data communication unit, and PROM writer unit. The PLC was programmed using ladder logic only. (a) (b) Figure 1. (a) Bank of Relays (b) GE Series One PLC Originally, the GE Series One PLC was used to control a system of conveyor

An importantlesson learned from the first time offering of this project was the need to have a bettersupervision over the teams’ workflow and create an environment for a better and moretransparent team communication. Since most groups consisted of members located on differentcampuses, there were occasions that the team members were completely blindsided on theprogress of the project by the other members.

The PR consisted of the first four sections of the FR, A) Problem Definition-5%, B) Brainstorming Alternatives-5%, C) Proposed Design-10%, and D) Construction & TestProcedures-10%. The syllabus briefly defined expectations for each section and referredstudents to website references for more information about the initial IMD prototype. Studentswere then directed to visit Canvas for a detailed procedure of construction and experimentation,including a rubric with evaluation criteria. The PR submitted by each project group wasreviewed by the instructor, assigned a tentative in-progress grade based on rubric criteria.Reviewed drafts of the PR were

Alongwith that, there has also been a focus on participating in competitions such as Shell-Eco Marathon byseniors for their capstone project. An opportunity arose to address both these issues by building anengine/chassis dynamometer.A funding request has been granted by a robotics company paving the way for design and build of anengine/chassis dynamometer. The dynamometer, in its first iteration, cost about $10,000 but a reviseddesign costs under $8,000. The dynamometer has been designed for Shell Eco Marathon competitionbut has found its uses in multiple projects over the past year, including a summer toboggan redesign fora local state park

Seventy-one percentof students received full credit for the first draft; that number rose to 90% for review and rebuttalstages. The number of late, missing, or incomplete first drafts is partially a result of a lack ofaccountability for participation in the workshops.For the final paper, 86.5% of students met at least ‘B’ standard (80%).

This will prevent the glove from detecting theground when the user is not using the glove to locate objects in front of the individual. The tilt switch is namedaccordingly due to the metallic ball on the inside of its container that acts as a switch to either complete thecircuit (ON position) or not (OFF position), similar to a push button. These switches were once commonlymade with mercury that was used to complete the circuit if the switch was at a certain angle

in real time during the lab sessions, itbecame clear to me that in most cases the major deficiencies resided in post-lab work and in theirability to submit a coherent, well written final report. Trying to dissect the source and location ofthe deficiencies, I decided to keep track of the performance of the various lab classes with themetric of these parameters. The hope was to be able to characterize with some quantitativemeasures (a) the progress of the class, if any, within the same semester/lab and (b) the progressof the class along the sequence of the four lab courses described above.Accordingly, while all the reports were graded following the syllabus description, I also kept arecord for myself with the marks assigned in each one of the

Figures ​1​a and1​b show exercises from each manual designed to teach the same concept: how to scale theoscilloscope display.

The assigned -3 dBcutoff frequencies of these filters ranged from 1 GHz to 1.75 GHz. Students were also asked toperform a PCB board layout that would be used to generate a physical prototype on which theywould then solder SMA connectors and use a VNA to verify its performance. This extension intophysical prototyping and measurement was intended to give students experience in using RFlaboratory equipment and enable them to correlate theoretical and experimental results.Student Learning
