If we believe that it is important for engineers to design for sustainability,they need to have both appropriate knowledge and attitudes.Sustainability is a very broad concept that requires one to think across myriad impacts in thesocial, environmental, and economic arenas with global scope and across immediate and futureimpacts. Sustainability requires that one cares about and considers others – both humanity andthe world we inhabit.29,37 To optimally design for sustainability requires us to collaborate acrossmyriad disciplines, sharing knowledge across fields of engineering, natural sciences, socialsciences, and humanities. Thus, attitudes across these linking areas may relate to one’ssustainability attitudes.10There have

The application of Arduinos in a mechanical engineering curriculum has been verysuccessful. It has provided a platform that students use to explore different sensors and actuatorsin an instrumentation course. It has also allowed students to be able to design their ownexperiments and use the Arduinos in a design project that they develop. In addition, the Arduinoshave given faculty an opportunity to provide more hands-on activities for students in controlsand sustainability courses. Finally, because students have become comfortable with theArduinos, they have begun to choose to use them in design projects in many additional courses.As Arduino use continues to expand across the mechanical engineering curriculum, the effectson student skills and

One section had onlya lecture on continuity and pressure drop topics based on material from textbooks [3, 4] while theother section had hands-on learning on the same topics. The hands-on learning groups wereasked to stay close around their DLM so they could work on the worksheet together and haveinteractive discussions.To tackle the difficulty of understanding these principles,we designed a simple classroom unit to demonstratecontinuity and pressure drop concepts.

As a part of this tutorial,technical how-to details are given to help the student develop simple maplets with simpleprogramming constructs that are needed to solve these selected problems. The process ofdeveloping Maplets demonstrated within this tutorial will provide a hands-on experience usingMAPLE. The authors believe that this paper will engage engineering and science students tocreate or modify existing Maplets for their other college course activities. The tutorial assumes afamiliarity with basic programming constructs, and would be appropriate after an introductoryprogramming course, one year of the calculus and one year

Engineering Mechanics curricula may include mechanics of materials,dynamics, materials sciences, fluid flow, and failure analysis. While these courses providevaluable skills to place in their engineering toolbox, they are often disjointed. The advent ofcapstone design projects had done much to help students synthesize what they must know asengineers, but often the scope of these projects is limited. Team sizes may be so large as

Years of assessment inour capstone design course revealed that many students preferred to design large scale treatmentworks, but they also wanted to create a hands-on visual aid, model, or prototype of their design.Lack of a hands-on experience left numerous students dissatisfied at the end of the course, whichhas been a persistent shortcoming (see Ref. 1).
