the U.S. history where our lead in science andengineering have been seriously threatened. Therefore, engaging students in a learningatmosphere where computational analysis and simulation is conducted will equip them with thetools they need to predict outcomes which they can verify with experimentation as well as betterprepare them for future challenges. Various ways can be employed in incorporatingcomputational methods in undergraduate curriculum early and often:  Both simple and complex models like these conducted in MATLAB can be done in introductory engineering courses giving students a head start and a taste of engineering research early in their education.  Combination of computational methods coupled with

theconcepts learned in class. This conventional way of learning is driven by the constraint inthe time of the lecture period and by the fact that the student should demonstrate his/herinterests for learning. However, the research literature suggests1 “that students must do more than justlisten. They must read, write, discuss, or be engaged in solving problems. Most importantto be actively involved, students must engage in such higher-order thinking tasks asanalysis, synthesis, and evaluation. Within this context, it is proposed that strategiespromoting active learning be defined as instructional activities involving students indoing things and thinking about what they are doing.” Basically, it is suggested that the lecture time be

Increased retentionoptimizes new-student recruitment dollars, decreases students’ time to graduation, impactsschool rankings, and helps to meet industry’s increasing demand for engineers. Most researchersand experts in the field agree on a number of basic tenants of retention. Topmost are the tenantsof creating community amongst freshmen, bonding

Courses in EDG are typically incorporated into the curriculum in either the freshman orearly sophomore year, and in many cases it is a core requirement for all engineering majors. In the past,the academic focus for Engineering Design Graphics has been developing methodology for producing andreading engineering drawings, which were the traditional communication links between design andmanufacturing.

The ladder senses vibrations produced by the user as they complete thedrill. This generates an electrical output which is used to measure the speed at which theyperformed the drill as well as the average time interval in between each rung.PAL is intended to improve on the existing agility ladder by providing feedback for the user. Inthe sports realm, researchers are already exploring the importance of feedback.
