The project was useful to reinforce skills that may have been passed earlier in thesemester and kept students who completed the testing early engaged until the end of the semester.The MBL approach described in this paper adds to a growing body of literature describing similarapproaches across the mechanical engineering curriculum.

Recommendationsare also suggested for future iterations of the instrument and to provide evidence for the resultantchanges in measurement properties.BackgroundIn undergraduate engineering courses, professors often stress procedural problem solving overconceptual understanding of the domain (Miller et al., 2005; Minstrell, Ruth Anderson, & Li,2011). As a result, engineering students are able to complete courses with high marks whilefailing to achieve understanding of key concepts and simultaneously maintaining problematicmisconceptions in the domain. Some of these misconceptions can be attributed to

Thus, achievement of a national smart grid requires extensiveworkforce training in the power generation from traditional and renewable energy resources,electricity transmission and distribution, and cyber security, etc. Although there are many universities offering different courses related to power system,the course on SG power system is still not available. The most possible reason is that SG is stillunder development and no SG power system was already deployed. Therefore, the topics on SGare not well defined and there is no textbook available for teaching. University of Bridgeport (UB) is located in Bridgeport, CT.

The ultrasonic sensor’s large range affordstime for the microprocessor to make decisions before any impact can occur. The infrared sensorswere simple enough to convert from an analog differential voltage output to a digital signal thatcan be interpreted by a microcontroller. No issues were encountered with the sensors selected.The largest concern was more related to the microcontroller. Limitation in processor speed andthe sequential manner in which the processor operates meant that the programmed distance hadto be greater than initially thought, just to allow for processing

The software development and the hardware design are covered by separate courses inisolation. The subject of software-hardware codesign is normally offered as a senior- orgraduate-level elective course and thus many students are not exposed to this subject. Thisarticle suggests a way to incorporate this concept in an introductory digital design course. Ourapproach is to use customized accelerators and I/O controllers as case studies.

Using MATLAB and Simulink in upper-level courses,however, encounters fewer issues with the students’ problem solving skills and analytical ability.MATLAB/Sumilink has been used beyond the freshmen year to generate interest in course topicsand improve program retention [7].
