During his four summers as a college student, Andrew worked as a Design Engineer Intern for OFS Optics, an optical fiber manufacturing plant. As a Design Engineer Inter, Andrew created better solutions for factory processes using engineering concepts, enhanced his Computer Aided Engineering skills by designing new parts and assemblies to use in the plant, reverse engineered large machines and modified them to meet OFS’s needs, and created piping and instrument drawings of various plant processes. Now, Andrew works as an Aerospace Engineer at the C-17

SCRUM: Scrum is an agile framework that promotes test-first and continuous integration in order to meet customers’ needs efficiently [17], [24]. Scrum framework promotes producing products faster by breaking large development projects into smaller pieces that can be completed in short timeframes. Examples of Scrum meetings include daily standups, sprint planning sessions, and sprint retrospectives [24]. Both XP and SCRUM emphasize continuously communicating with the users or clients in meetings [17], [24]. Students would meet with people affected by

device (had internal sensors), so it did not involve a hardware design element. Find a robot that has better position and speed control. The Finch Robot had very little weight and minimal wheel friction, and as a result, it was hard to get it to drive in a straight direction.Conclusions /RecommendationsBoth student teams successfully completed the project. However, it was interesting to see how thetwo student teams approached their designs and where they focused their development. One teamidentified the user interface as the section that required the most attention, while the other teamfocused on sensors and motion. Both teams had trouble in converting gravity readings to degreesand determining pitch from a 3-axis accelerometer.One

An inexpensive analog electronicpressure sensor was used as the measurement device.1 Instrument performance was predictedfrom elementary moving fluid measurement theory.2, 3 Student team designs were then testedusing a wind tunnel facility. Data collected during testing was then used to create a calibrationcurve for each design.

annual reportsAnnual 10K reports are the source of historic information. Since cashflow from assets is not avalue reported, students will calculate this value by adding earnings to the interest (Equation 2above). These values are always available in the report for the consolidated company, but inorder to perform a detailed forecast it is best for each division’s cashflow to be collected. Allcompanies report some kind of division in their earnings or revenues. Figure 3 has the detailsthat are available for Nike from their 10K. Nike does not report earnings by division, but doesreport revenues. This distribution of revenue is used as a proxy for the distribution of earnings.Of course this assumes that expenses are proportionate across divisions

The diametrical measurements are found by taking the average of a range of measurements on the part. Thefollowing tests were conducted in the same manner as the coaxiality test done in section 4.2.1. The first test measuresthe data of sequential scans without refixturing the part to test the repeatability of the gage and software. From theresults in table 3 the gage shows to be highly repeatable. However the diametrical data does show an upward trendin the measurement of parts. This is believed to be from the internal elements of

The family resemblance is made by discerning theseparticularities. 24According to the same logic, knowing that the shortest way to fly from Stockholm, Sweden, toNew York is to fly over Greenland (near the North Pole), as an example of Lagrange multipliers(maximum and minimum), makes it easier to see connections to technical applications bydiscerning the similarities in the analogous examples.The NCTM principles for enhancing conceptual learning are in line with the pragmatic view ofbuilding mathematical knowledge.

In this paper, we describe a cross-college model of an ASEE chapter that includes an interdisciplinary network of faculty, staff,and students across colleges of engineering and education in a large Research I institution.

With NSF support they developed a pedagogical framework toassist students in deepening their conceptual understanding of new and challenging ideas. Thisframework, known as EFFECTs (Environments for Fostering Effective Critical Thinking Skills),was originally aimed at introductory civil engineering students, but has been extended to upperdivision engineering classes as well. The format intertwines multiple learning modules andwritten journal entries into a multi-session exploration of a large-scale physical problem.

fundamental framework for the students to understand, appreciate, and relate the informationobtained in the following years of study. The course should also promote and develop the firstlevels of capability.This is consistent with a tenant in educational psychology, which states that knowledge isconstructed and incremental. Therefore, students must be educated with the expectation theenvironment will change and new methods and technologies available. This approach is directlytransferrable to the engineering profession. Design is what engineers do on a daily basis and“engages both the intellect and the imagination of the designer”.3 Engineers must not only becompetent in their technical knowledge but must more importantly be capable to apply

Process: When an action is repeated and the individual reflects upon it, he or shecan make an internal mental construction called a process which the individual can think ofas performing the same kind of action, but no longer with the need of external stimuli... Object: An object is constructed from a process when the individual becomes awareof the process as a totality and realizes that transformations can act on it... Schema: Individuals collection of actions, processes, objects, and other schemaswhich are linked by some general principles to form a framework in individual’s mind...

The social science research methodologyis used to study how people think about a topic (e.g., their viewpoints, perspectives, attitudes,beliefs, and other similar statements) [2], [4]. Q methodology consists of the followingcomponents: • Q Concourse: A set of all statements regarding a topic that may be collected from interviews, publications, or other sources, and may include content such as photographs
