especially in Engineering Graphics. Enhancing the spatial visualization abilities ofengineering students has long been a focus of engineering graphics educators. A variety of testsand procedures to determine learning styles have been developed and used over the years. Asprofessors, we tend to teach the way we learn, whether that is good for the students or not.Understanding our own learning style as well as the styles of our students might help us becomebetter communicators. There are a wide variety of tests and indicators for determining learningstyles. Kolb (2001), Herrmann (1995), and others have similar but different theories on learningstyles. Most of us are familiar with the Myers Briggs Type Indicator tests (MBTI) given to highschool students

Dynamics Take-Home Laboratory Kits AbstractTo make the teaching of dynamic systems concepts more engaging and interesting to students,we need to relate class theory to the dynamic performance of real engineering systems includingones that are available at home. This paper addresses the design of take-home software andhardware kits that can be used to perform laboratory experiments and measurements at home toimprove the understanding of system dynamics concepts in an undergraduate student population.Rather than having students perform an experiment in the university laboratory, the students aregiven a compact, low cost kit with which they can perform an experiment at home using theirown PC/laptop. The kits

Among the many findings from these interviews is thatthe experience of serving as an assessor for this study left many of the faculty participants with a keeninterest in the teaching methods used by John Wright and the outcomes of the study. Based on remarksmade by many of the assessors, both LEAD Center researchers and members of the chemistry educationreform group associated with the NSF-funded New Traditions Chemistry Consortium believe that animportant side-effect of the assessment study is that it provided 25 science, engineering and math facultyat UW-Madison with a meaningful introduction to this experiment in improving student

Since there is a one-year gap between the related topics,the CAM course needs to be designed with proper guidance on the prerequisite materialsthroughout the learning process.This paper presents the development and assessment methods of the CAM course at FarmingdaleState College. The course teaches students how to use MasterCAM, one of the leading softwaretools in the industry, for CAD modeling and toolpath programming. The course also incorporatesbest practices in machining, which are crucial for toolpath programming. Given the wide range oftopics covered, the assessment methods for these topics vary.
