Teaching Time standards in a practical way Rajesh Balasubramanian University of MemphisAbstractStandardization is all around us - traffic lights, weights, and measures to name a couple. However,Time standards1 offer challenges in many ways. There are Time standards thatIndustrial/Manufacturing engineers must establish for production workers/operators. Given themany factors that need to be considered, this paper explores a holistic way of teaching students toappreciate, experience and develop skills to execute Time standard studies in an effective manner.The text around Time standards is limited and theoretical but the hands-on simulators truly drivethe point across.

, usually tailored to programmatic needs and instructional abilities [7]. As revealed by theliterature, there is a plethora of teaching practices across engineering disciplines and colleges:from one term to a full year capstone design course, from prescribed projects to team- orindustry-led open-ended problems [15]. In this paper, we will describe our teaching practices forcapstone design courses, to achieve the learning objectives and student learning outcomes. Asmost of our senior design projects are industry sponsored, the faculty advisors and the coursecoordinator and instructor are positioned mostly as moderators/facilitators between students andpractitioners during the learning process.Undergraduate Research Experience and Senior

flexible and straightforward teaching artifacts that can be easily implemented byengineering and engineering technology programs. A key component to support teaching thesetopics is laboratory modules that involve the design, assembly, and testing of hydraulic andpneumatic systems. They allow students to apply counterintuitive concepts from lectures in atangible context that fosters the learning experience [4]. Nevertheless, traditional laboratoryexercises in fluid power courses are insufficient in addressing the complexity of hydraulic andpneumatic systems, resulting in relatively high withdrawals and D/F grades [5]. Thus, there is aneed to incorporate innovative technologies and methods.Previous efforts to address these challenges included the

Learning Classroom of ValuableExperiences (ALCOVE), while still in its infancy stage as a teaching & learning space is well onits way to setting a new standard in the Indiana University system. Initially installed on theBloomington Campus as a one-of-a-kind teaching space, the idea quickly grew into a model forduplication on other IU campuses. Whereas learning environment have typically referred topedagogical design as well as cognitive and emotional space (including the online environment),recently, the field is beginning to acknowledge and research the role of physical space ineducational settings (Vercellotti 2018).
