During my time at the R1 institution, the absence of prerequisites for CS 1 led to diversestudents from various disciplines enrolling in the course which resulted in high enrollment. Theaccessibility of the course to non-computer science majors broadened the reach to majors outsideof the school who found value in the course. Students from the school of design expressed therelevance of the CS 1 material when developing creative digital art. I

However, the examinations have been well received by thestudents during the examinations and we have received positive comments at the end of thesemester.Practicing engineers seldom make decisions in the absence of a context. By providing a context,decision-making skills could be developed. This form of examination was designed so that theinformation required for a problem’s solution was not neatly provided. In many of theexaminations, students were required to extrapolate from the presented data or required to makeeducated assumptions. The students were also required to separate the essential information from

Nonlinearloads, such as the power supplies for electronic devices, introduce harmonic currents into the power system,which can cause failures in power system equipment as well as in other loads. Evidence of harmonic problemsinclude circuit breakers tripping when they shouldn’t or failing to trip when they should, overheated neutralconductors or transformers, erratic operation or tripping of adjustable speed drives, blown power factorcorrection capacitors, and communication interference. The problems are different, but their causes are related. Since every user of the power system contributes to the problem, I believe all electrical engineers andtechnicians need to have a basic understanding of power quality issues

He developed and led the implementation of a new supplier process to dramatically change the way supplier technologies were integrated into Ford products.

This constituted a good beginning, however, it was veryclear to us that to keep a place in the curriculum for a power course, we would have to make evenmore changes to the course. Course DevelopmentBased upon our industrial experience, we had some concerns over the emphasis of the material inthe course we inherited when we began teaching at Purdue. While a balance of theory andapplication is desirable so that the students will understand why a device performs the way itdoes, we felt the course was too heavily weighted toward the analysis of equivalent circuits ofmachines, rather than the practical application of them. Thus one goal was to reduce

These research methodologies permit a high realism of context and thusenabled the researchers to gain a substantive understanding of the problem area. This led toidentifying both the problem of not having critical data and information after a disaster but alsothe problem of not having the resources to ensure the availability of this data and information.These two problems are simultaneously addressed by
