Consequently, it is important for mechanicalengineering students to conduct physical experiments so that they have hands-on experience withthe types of tools used in instrumentation and measurement. By doing these activities, students cangain knowledge about issues such as what measurements to use, how to develop a feasibility studyprogram, how to conduct computer-based data acquisition and analysis processes, how to validateexperimental data for both deterministic and random processes, how to design experiments, how toapply both statistical and deterministic tools for data analysis, and how to disseminate

They want tobe available to the students and help them be successful in their upcoming courses and careers.Maybe, there needs to be a focus on changing the language. The expectation is for one toINSTRUCT and the other to LEARN. In many cases, the new pedagogical approaches are focusingon facilitation and engagement that results in a dialog, and multilogue between the educator andthe students, and most importantly, between students and students.
