at St. Thomas, studentshave competed in a national collegiate design competition before (SAE Mini-Baja [2]), but never as part of a course. Suchcontests promote creativity and inspire innovation through the use of unstructured and open-ended design problems – desired andessential attributes of future real engineers. This past year in Machine Design (ENGR 320 [1,3]) one goal was to test out usageof a national design contest as a course project. Aspects of the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) 2003-4Student Design Contest, Mine Madness were embedded into the Machine Design course and below we document (through text,photos, and available video) and draw conclusions from the exciting educational journey embarked upon by the

(0.031 in.) stainless steel sheet metal.The taco holder, measuring 10 in. by 4 in., features three 60-degree bends, each spaced 2.5inches apart. The primary objective was to develop a repeatable laboratory procedure thatintroduces students to the principles of sheet metal bending, including force measurement,springback compensation, and the influence of tool geometry on final part accuracy.

The project idea presented has a variety of real-world applicationsincluding in medical portable devices, field testing devices, ticketing systems, gas receiptprinting system to name a few. Today almost all the printers have a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface for connectionto a personal computer (PC) or a control device. The USB interface has several advantages overprevious generation of connection methods such as parallel ports. A USB port is much fasterthan a parallel port

A measuredpresentation focuses on a few core concepts at a time, at a pace that optimizes studentcomprehension. Unwanted features that distract from the foundational concepts being presentedare minimized by simplifying the processor. Page 25.866.3Simplifying the processor to eliminate unwanted features involves creating a processor withoutcache, interrupts, or pipelining; removing advanced devices such as LCD, Ethernet, and USB;and disabling all of the vendor’s software support. Many specialized features found in processorswill be left out when creating a

competitive for funding, aneducator must submit a strong proposal that creates a good first impression to the reviewer. A proposal that iswell written, clear, and easy for the reviewer to read and understand generally has a better chance of beingfunded than one that is poorly written. Since many engineering educators have little background in writing, this paper gives guidelines forcreating a strong proposal to prospective authors. General appearance of the proposal, including graphs,figures, and charts, is an important part of writing a successful grant. Common errors in writing are included,and basic rules for most frequently misused grammar are given with a discussion of words, sentence structure,and paragraph organization. General

They usuallyinclude: an 8 or 16 bit microprocessor (CPU): a small amount of RAM: programmable ROMand/or flash memory: parallel and/or serial I/O: timers and signal generators: analog to digital(A/D) and/or digital to analog (D/A) conversion. Microcontrollers are designed to be used inembedded systems because the microcontroller and support circuits are often built into, orembedded in, the devices they control. Microcontrollers respond automatically to certain inputsin an embedded system; Examples of such devices/embedded systems that use microcontrollerswould be car engines, VCRs, microwaves, cameras, pagers, cell phones, etc. During the course of this project, the Arduino Uno microcontroller was utilized.
