The manufactured parts produced areoften unusable or unneeded and are frequently discarded as soon as they come off the machine.Often, numerous variables are fixed in order to show how changing one input variable at a timecan affect the output. As a result, these laboratories do not reach the complexity of a full-scaleproduction environment.

Implementing the Computer ThreadThe principal mechanism for implementation of the computer thread was the Computers inEngineering Education Plan (CEEP). The strategy was to integrate computer usage intoindividual courses and to coordinate this usage among courses to establish the thread. Computerintegration meant that the computer was to be woven into the course, rather than merelyappended it to existing material.Funds were obtained from various agencies and foundations, as well as Stevens’ internal funds.These funds were employed to support faculty projects during

Likert scale surveys, exam scores, lab scores, and aknowledge inventory were used in an attempt to answer whether the student experience (e.g. timespent, satisfaction, feelings towards the laboratory) differ based on the type of equipment used.The lack of significant differences between the exam and concept inventory scores indicate thatthe students achieved the intended learning outcomes at the same level of proficiency no matterwhat type of equipment they used in the laboratory.The educational research literature suggests positive benefits of the mobile studio approachcompared to a traditional laboratory model using bench equipment.
