The project team also coordinatesundergraduate research opportunities in nanoscale science and engineering across the College.Additionally, this program is designed to attract students into graduate studies in the field.During the project period, we incorporated six nanomodules in eight engineering courses acrossall engineering disciplines. We have implemented these nanomodules in core courses, along withan introductory nanomodule presented to incoming freshman. We have made a special effort torelate nanotechnology topics to existing course content. We also have implemented and addedtwo nanolabs into two existing junior level

Delaying boundary layer separation to improve airfoilaerodynamic performance can be achieved by passive techniques which include the use of vortexgenerators, rough patches, uniform suction/blowing, and dimpled surfaces. Dimpled surfaceshave been known to generate swirl by the creation of vortices thereby energizing the flow. It isbelieved that the generation of vortices and swirl can be used to mitigate boundary

As a group, students and mentors look at various sources and select articles by the relevance to the study. Student researchers quickly learn that eliminating sources is more of a problem than finding information and that website credentials are important. The mentor at the college usually outlines the proposal and assigns students to various tasks- often the students and the mentor meet as a group and plan the most efficient way to accomplish tasks and rough out a time-line of the study.

A recent PER study published by the Mazur Group at Harvard University observed that even with quality demonstrations students’ prior knowledge may interfere with students observing the demonstration correctly. Those researchers systematically evaluated demonstration techniques and concluded that the best practice is to have students predict outcomes before observing demonstrations.
