population forevaluation. The project’s processes and outcomes are being assessed by RTI International.For a variety of reasons, powerful graphic tools outside of mechanical and architectural CAD arenot commonly employed in the technology education classroom. To address this need, the VisTEProject has designed units that direct students toward developing data driven and conceptuallydriven graphic models directly related to technology. Data driven models (even simple ones likegraphs and charts) can help elucidate relationships not easily seen from raw numbers or writtenreports. Data driven models also argue for and enforce the use of mathematics and scientific dataupon which most technology is founded. Conceptual graphic models (such as the flow of

The first part of the class was held on the secondary school’s campus and coveredintroductory material, introduction to controls, and basic programming. The middle of thecourse was held on the college campus where the students were introduced to roboticprogramming, CNC manufacturing, and PLC programming.

. After the transition to turbulent flow, theFanning Friction factor for smooth pipes can be estimated by the Blasius Equation14 (Eqn 6).The resultant predicted pressure drop as a function of flow rate is given in Eqn 7. We see thatthe pressure drop is function of flow rate to the 1.75 power in this relationship. One of theresults reported in Reynolds original paper was that for very smooth surfaces, the pressure dropin the turbulent regime was proportional to the 1.7 to 1.9 power of the flow rate and dependedupon the pipe material investigated. Previously, Darcy3 treated the pressure drop as a 2nd orderrelationship with flow rate. f = 0.079 Re −0.25 (6

Due to the fact that this is an open-endedlaboratory course and that the amount of lecture time is minimal, the muddy points were toodiverse and could rarely be addressed during class time. Instead of using muddy points tomodify the class content, a written document was developed covering all the questions asked bythe students and providing them with resources to different tools and material that would helpthem obtain the additional information they needed.
