distillation design and graphical methods for gasabsorption and stripping design remain in use today and similar procedures are employed forextraction and other less frequently encountered processes. These methods are typically employeddue to their conceptually simpler formulation compared to numerically solved processes. However,manual construction of graphics and investigation of the effect of different design parameters onthe resulting column are time consuming and tedious procedures. Computer-aided instructionoffers solutions to these problems by removing the burden of computational effort while preservingthe simple graphical representation. The benefits of introducing state of the art computingtechnology into the coursework are numerous. With the

Despite this fact, however, it can not be concluded that the implementation ofdesign teaching is done in a way conducive to student learning.

(2) Applying of TRIZ has moresignificant economic and intellectual benefits and relatively poor social benefits. (3)Engineers should attach importance to the comprehensive benefits, giving priority toeffective TRIZ tools, and select TRIZ tools according to the type of problem.1.

The outcome of students’ satisfaction and support of telling stories by theinstructor was overwhelming among both groups of students. The impact was not targetedtowards just creating passion in the classroom, but the active participation and reflection on thestories was sought to lead to ethical values pedagogy.

However, review of the student‟s mode shapes indicated a very weakcorrelation with the mode shapes predicted by the faculty.

The fuel and oil lineswere all rigid tubing, so that they, too, restrained the jet engine.Finally, the load transducer was a simple strain gauge unit that is not commerciallyproduced. This device had no temperature compensation and had a low outputsensitivity. It was also attached to the front support leg, well below the centerline of thethrust.The net effect of these design issues was that the load measurement did not maintain zeroand the resolution was inadequate. In fact, the zero load condition could be shifted byseveral pounds just by tapping the rear support leg. In order to improve the thrustmeasurement; both the engine support system and the
