approach would be for them to say something like, "Ihave tried . . ., and what happened was . . . . This seems wrong. Did I make an error here . . .,here . . ., or here . . .?". Instead, students will commonly say, "I do not understand anything; dothe problem for me.", and then not internalize the learning. Under these circumstances, theteaching team (faculty and assistants) must be fully consistent in their responses to such studentdemands by recognizing that one’s ability to think and understand can not be "taught", it canonly be "figured out". The path to independence is initially slow and frustrating4. Page 5.728.6Before these efforts to get

Page 13.1210.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2008Abstract:Biogas is produced when organic matter is degraded in the absence of oxygen. Theprocess, from degradation to gas production is called anaerobic digestion. This anaerobicdigestion occurs naturally in wetland, Lake Bottom and deep landfills. An experimentaldigestor was built that converts cow manure and agricultural waste into methane-richbiogas that can be used as alternate energy resources to generate electricity or thermalenergy. The research in this study focuses on the feasibility of the design of anoperational digestor, the monitoring and control of the different biodegradation processvariables and experiments to boost or maximize the gas production; and the analysis
