At the end of training lessons, someinstructors may verbally describe the link of different processes and how a product would flowamong those processes. A manufacturing department typically has to purchase many identicalmachine tools and different tooling sets for variety of possible operations on each machine type.The operating cost of such manufacturing laboratory is high and some students might notcomprehend the link among different processes. This model is popular among communitycolleges or vocational schools, but may not be best for engineering students since the latter onlyneed to understand the manufacturing processes and flow sequence rather than acquiring

While determining the main themes from the dataset was crucial,equally important was identifying responses that did not answer the faculty support surveyquestions and did not align with any of the three categories. Therefore, a comprehensive approachincluded codes assigned to the dataset for the three themes along with responses where domainexpert codes were designated as "No response, other, or ambiguous." This dataset was randomlyordered and divided into training and testing sets, which served as input data for the supervisedlearning method.The high precision, recall, and F1 scores for "Class Support" and

This educational motiveis achieved by permitting a simple way to enter Synchronous Machine (S/M) parameters andimmediately see interactive results all in the familiar software environment of MathCAD®. Avisual depiction of an axial cutaway view of a S/M is automatically produced and isaccompanied by a corresponding phasor diagram.

relatively simple to see thatstudents can be easily confused when an unknown notation is thrust upon them even if theconcept is one that they thoroughly understand. However, presenting new notations along withthe more common style will greatly enhance the learning process. Particular freshman orsophomore level courses may lend themselves more readily to this concept. The dual (or triple)notation should be expressed throughout the entire semester and not just briefly introduced inpassing.
