Differentiated instruction is an active process where instructorsattempt to provide different students with different learning options. These techniques are wellestablished and have been used in K-12 education extensively.​8 ​Choice or menu activities areone example of a type of differentiated instruction which involves providing students multiplepossible paths to completing a given assignment. The literature is lacking explicit examples ofdifferentiated instruction in college-level engineering design courses. However, higher educationexamples that are published in other areas support its use.​9Use of out

Supplementing atechnology lending program with workshops can be more difficult, but for us this has been anessential outreach tool, facilitating collaborations and pushing access further.By embracing the Maker movement, academic libraries can support engineering education byoffering tools and learning experiences to engineering students, who do not always have easyaccess to these, especially in the first years of their university education. These offerings canboth supplement a formal engineering education, and provide informal learning experiences toboth engineers and non-engineers.

barrier for the introductionof the Kinect in many signal processing, image processing, and control courses, since the de-facto language in many engineering colleges has moved from C to the MATLAB / Simulinkenvironment. Furthermore, the need to resolve low-level programming details, such as fixedpoint arithmetic or overflow, distracts students from the higher-level pedagogical goals related tothe signal processing or control algorithm. An alternative approach is for students to performtheir system designs in the preferred MATLAB / Simulink environment, and then use Simulink’s‘Automatic Code Generation’ or ‘Rapid Prototyping’ capability to translate these designs intoreal-time executable code. The aim of this paper is to show how the Kinect device

IntroductionThe students in the mechanical engineering program at Indiana University-Purdue University atFort Wayne are required to complete a capstone senior design project. This is carried out duringthe two semesters of the senior year. In the first semester, basic conceptual designs aregenerated and then evaluated. The best conceptual design is then chosen and a complete anddetailed design is generated by the end of the first semester. In the second semester, a proto-type of the finished design is built, tested and evaluated. The projects are either in the solid orthermal areas of the mechanical engineering.Whenever it is possible, the students are exposed to real life design problem experience bygetting them
