For two of the initial introductory labs, students were required toprepare lab reports (one per group of 2-3 students). Prior to collecting water samples for analysis,students developed individual research proposals. Subsequent analysis of samples andassessment of data were conducted in student groups consisting of 3-4 students. Onecomprehensive poster was prepared per student group which summarized findings and proposedadditional water treatment strategies. The posters were presented in an open forum to the USMAcommunity.4.

LabThe results for the Wind Tunnel Lab are shown in Figure 5. No survey data was available priorto Fall 2012. The experiment originally involved students measuring the drag force generated bya model car before and after altering the car to improve aerodynamics. This lab had beenpositively rated by the students when the course was originally taken over by the new instructorin Fall 2010. Because of this the experiment was initially unaltered except for rewriting the labhandouts. In Fall 2013, the wind tunnel was altered in order to accommodate a larger crosssection for a research project. This reduced the maximum wind speed in the tunnel, which madethe data gathered during the experiment less reliable and made the differences between thealtered

All that we wanted to accomplish with the tilt switch was to deactivate the sensors when the glovewas in the downward position, indicating that it was not currently in use, and it was not necessary to alert theuser of anything. We installed the tilt switch and amended the code so that it would only run the sensor detection portionwhen the tilt switch was in the upwards position. However, when we ran the program, the haptic motor juststayed on and never disabled no matter what position the tilt switch was in. This took some research into thecode, and we discovered that the tilt switch was initially set on high. Changing
