. The current positionof the shaft is then converted into electrical signal and compared with command input signal.Modern servo motors use electronic encoders or sensors to sense the position of the shaft. Basedon the required position of the shaft, the command input is given.If the feedback signal is different from the given input, an error signal is generated. The error isapplied as the input to the motor which leads to rotation of the motor. When the shaft is at therequired position, error signal becomes zero making the motor stay standstill holding the position.Design And Assembly of Trainer Panel:This trainer Panel is designed in mainly three steps 1.

We havechosen to address these issues by developing a pre-semester physics “bootcamp” to give studentsthe necessary study skills and practice working with physics content before they start theirphysics course. Additionally, we incorporate directed support during the semester to continuedeveloping the student’s ability to succeed.Physics Jam is a 1 to 2 week free program offered to all students taking first or second semesterphysics.

Lastly,a teaching tool for explaining central limit theorem is discussed based on guessingweights of books. This guessing game proves useful to explain sampling distribution.1. IntroductionAlthough it has been argued since 1960s [1] that probability and statistics is as importantas calculus as a mathematical foundation for engineering students who have to cope withuncertainty and variability in their professional careers, majority of engineering programsin North America have one course for both probability and

The performance and retention of the students were then tracked for thefollowing three years and related back to their initial attitudes. Students who left engineering ingood academic standing had significantly different attitudes about themselves and engineeringcompared to students who stayed in engineering, or who left in poor academic standing.

The impetus of this research originated from a common problem encounteredin the manufacturing and packaging industry. Generally, an inspecting conveyor system requiresa human operator to visually inspect the part or in case of an automatic detection, the process islimited in its inspecting ability. In case of human operator inspecting process, the operatorrequires to be trained in the particular inspection criteria as well as the use of precision hand-tools to determine the defect. This involves training cost, overhead expenditure (higher pay-scaledue to training and experience), and other labor fees for a monotonous

For instance, ABETstipulates a minimal set of student learning outcomes that describe what learners should knowand be able to by the time they graduate from an ABET-accredited engineering program.1 It isalso now common practice to articulate course-level learning outcomes for each of the coursesoffered by a college or university; these indicate what a learner is expected to know and be ableto do after successfully completing a course. A common approach used by curriculum design-ers, known as backwards design, involves designing a curriculum from the bottom up by startingfrom the program learning outcomes, and then creating course-level objectives that would
