are writing intensive and have the technicalwriting course as a prerequisite. Even more of a problem, many Penn State engineering studentswork in internships and co-op experiences without having taken the technical writing course,even though the companies expect those students to write. Worse yet, in those internships, ourstudents are evaluated alongside engineering interns who have had the experience of a technicalwriting course. To address this situation, the Mechanical Engineering Department at Penn State haspiloted an engineering writing course that connects to its required junior-level design course,which is writing intensive. What distinguishes this engineering writing course from traditionaltechnical writing courses is that the

LaboratoryAbstractPresently there is a need to develop more effective ways to integrate experimental design into theengineering curriculum. To address this need, we are developing virtual laboratories that providestudents a capstone experience in which they can apply experimental design in a context similarto that of a practicing engineer in industry. In a virtual laboratory, simulations based onmathematical models implemented on a computer are used to replace the physical laboratory.However, as opposed to being constructed as a direct one-to-one replacement, the virtuallaboratory is intended to complement the physical laboratories in the curriculum so that certainspecific elements of the experimental design process are addressed. We have previously reportedon the

The quiz consisted of 20 questions that tested students’ knowledge of single andmulti-queuing theory. Fifteen questions were designed to test the student’s conceptual knowledgeand five questions were designed to test their analytical knowledge of a special case of batchqueuing, which was discussed in the virtual teaching module. The scores were calculated based oncorrectly answered percentage ratios for each quiz score type (See Appendix A). The perceivedworkload of the quiz was evaluated

Sample vulnerable programs and attack payloads are provided to try out on the system.To demonstrate a defense against such attacks, we have also built hardware-based solutions andcreated a ‘secure’ version of the system. The students can run the same attack code on both theunprotected and protected versions of the systems and observe the behavior. The students canalso write their own code and try to attack them on the system.Learning Aim: The aim of this module is to let the students experiment with different types ofsystem security attacks and build defenses around them.

Theseexperiments are summarized in Table 1.For each academic year during the period fall semester 2016 through spring semester 2018, twosections of the course used a modified assessment approach (model), while the remaining section(the control) used an assessment approach that mirrors the current standard. Briefly, the standardcourse design used by Instructor X employed graded homework, two midterm exams, and theuse of partial credit based on “correct approach” in the grading of every assignment

Engineering Experimentation  is an advanced laboratory coursewith the specific goal to enhance the students’ abilities in experimental design and analysis topartially satisfy the ABET’s learning outcome. Experimental design relies on principles ofcombinatorial mathematics such as combination, permutation, factorial, blocking, Latin square,etc. The analysis of experiments uses theories from statistics such as hypothesis, t-test, ANOVA,etc.It is often hard for the students to manually design experimental layouts if they do not havesufficient combinatorial mathematics background.

Upon formation of a coherentlaboratory for the targeted course, following a thematic approach, future students of that course will use the laboratoryfacility to enhance their understanding of concepts with “hands on” experiences.
