Thiscourse aims at preparing students for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam throughreviewing major topics within engineering. The FE exam is a nationwide, criterion-referenced,discipline-specific test. Engineering students typically take the FE exam during their senioryear. Students take the FE exam for a variety of reasons including the pursuit of engineeringlicensure. The course is designed to review material students covered in prior courses and tosynthesize main points from those courses.The first nine weeks of this course were

In response, over the past six years at the University of Dayton,a capstone engineering modeling course has been developed and evolved. Initially this course focused onasking students to develop computational solutions to well-specified modeling problems ideally buildingupon on previously taken fundamental mechanical engineering courses. However, it was clear very earlythat students’ abilities to develop models for the projects assigned to which computational tools could beapplied was noticeably weak. Thus the course emphasis shifted to highly open-ended modeling efforts.What has emerged over time is a course based upon projects involving two person student teams drivenby very general

The HPL teaching framework presents the learning material as a series of challenges thatare posed through a “Legacy Cycle.” The VANTH biomechanics modules were presented in anundergraduate Mechanical Engineering course, titled “Biomechanics of Human Movement,” inFall 2004. The class (N=18) was divided into six, three-member teams. All challenges wereperformed by the teams as computer homework assignments using a CD that was supplied by theinstructor. Pre-tests, post-tests, and affect rankings were administered for each module. Thestudents were also surveyed on the learning

However, there’s a fundamental misuse of the GROUP BY clause. Instead of grouping results by a unique identifier (in this case, NetId which represents each student), the query mistakenly tries to group by avg grade, a calculated value. This approach is incorrect because GROUP BY should be used with columns that have the same values in multiple rows, serving as a basis for aggregation, not with the result of an aggregated function like an average grade. 1 SELECT NetId, COUNT(CRN) AS course_count, 2 ROUND
