Lee Morgan State University/Amherst College Abstract The main purpose of this paper is to present the design of a portable data acquisition (DAQ) system for use in both education and research in geomechanics. This portable data acquisition system can serve not only as a simulator for various tests in geomechanics but also as genuine data acquisition equipment for multiple purposes on sites. When it is used as a simulator, it can be operated either as a helpful aid in teaching or as a physical model in research. This

Initialstudent feedback is positive, with some skepticism mixed in as well. The students continue to improvetheir ability to assess their own understanding of probability and the uncertainties they face. We believethis understanding of probability and uncertainty is applicable in all areas of engineering education. Possible future research will focus on several areas. Our ultimate goal is to improve eachstudent’s ability to assess uncertainty and apply that improved ability to the decision situations in theireveryday lives. We intend to continue soliciting
