We believe that a successful first course inengineering thermodynamics must address these issues by careful and comprehensive pedagogyand assessment. This paper describes our approach that involves laboratory workshops.In our course is taken principally by mechanical and chemical engineering majors. For it, wehave developed nearly a dozen 1-hour laboratory sessions to augment classroom activities and tofacilitate student growth in connecting descriptions to behavior.

civil construction encompasses a wide range ofvery different projects involving very large operations. Contractors must be able to prepareestimates that are competitive enough to secure contracts yet allows reasonable profit uponsuccessful completion of the projects. In reality, the success of both contractors and owners ofmajor projects is dependent upon the construction estimating skills of key individuals within acompany or an agency. Poorly prepared estimates can lead to distressful results such asfinancial insolvency and abandoned projects. Many construction graduates start their career asan estimator before moving on to become project engineer, project manager or owner of aconstruction company. At California State Polytechnic

Use of the spreadsheet requires input of rocket body, nosecone and fin geometry. 3Conclusion The course is offered each semester to accommodate as many students and their schedules as possible. It also includes some enrollees who are not physics or engineering majors, indicating that it does have some universal appeal. One outgrowth of the course is the intent to encourage participation in rocket competitions through the Engineering Club, a request made by current students. Overall, the course has been well received over the years, has been successful and will continue to be offered.References 1. Penko, P.F., Rocketry Class Notes

Feature requirements for online exam administration AbstractOver the past two decades, learning management systems (LMSs) have each developed their ownsoftware for administering quizzes and examinations online. In addition, several standalone tools likeWebassign and Gradescope have similar functionality. The rapid pivot to online learning has familiarizedmost engineering faculty with the features and inadequacies of current tools. These fall into fourcategories: question types, grading options, presentation/layout issues and integrity related. This paperconsiders each of the categories, from the standpoint of what is currently offered and what is desired byinstructors.IntroductionThough typically
