Technically speaking, photosculpture also afforded a mechanisticmethod of producing portraiture that was more mathematically and anatomically exact thancould be achieved by the traditional “sketch-and-mold” methods of sculpture. These factors ledto general praise of the photosculpture process by its clients; Willéme’s studio, as well as itsoffshoots in France and America, was relatively economically successful for the first few years.27Critical success, however, did not follow the initial positive consumer response to thephotosculpture process.

This tool enabled the representationof human thought, adding parallelisms (concurrent information), considering vagueness andeven combining other different maps, enlarging at any time the initial map, to represent morecomplex systems. FCM has become especially important to mathematically represent systemsthat portray incomplete definitions, the lack of them, and/or linguistic imprecision.Kosko considered that the causal uncertain (fuzzy) knowledge was stored on a map, a signeddigraph, with feedback where the causality degrees among

The space was not, however, in good shape, with large trenches inthe floor from drains, no air conditioning, and insufficient power for most uses. Numerous useswere proposed for the space, but for various reasons, including allowable floor loading, drainage,noise, ceiling height, and power availability, the space had not been found suitable for a numberof research-oriented efforts. In 1995, the university made $600,000 available to the college forrenovation of the space.

Project for High SchoolsAbstractMany current political leaders in the United States advocate an increased emphasis on STEMtopics in the primary and secondary school systems. As a result of this focus, there are multiplesources of funding available in the STEM outreach arena. It is tempting to seek funding throughthese various means and produce what could be labeled as a "Show-and-Go" program. Thispaper defines "Show-and-Go" as a project with a short-term focus, with little-to-no long terminvestment. Additionally, Show-and-Go projects focus on the “fun” aspects of engineering withvery little emphasis on the underlying fundamental mathematics and science principles.

Teamwork plays a central role in the experience ofstudents in many first-year engineering design programs. The first-year design class at DukeUniversity revolves around student teams (typically four or five members) working on aspects ofa client-based project. Although most teams in the course function reasonably well, there existareas for improvement: respectful communication among team members and ensuring that theperspectives and skills of all group members are appropriately valued.

IntroductionThe problem-solving studio (PSS) is a pedagogical technique that focuses on problem-basedlearning. Because of PSS’s features, instructors can adjust the level of support they provide inreal time, as well as the difficulty level of the problems, to ensure that each student is challengedat a level that is beyond what they could achieve on their own, but at the upper end of what theycan achieve in a PSS setting [1].

Moreover, the learning in capstonedesign is not only related to discipline-based skills and knowledge, but something greater: theapplication and integration of that knowledge into the solution of a new problem, sometimes aspart of a team. This represents the sort of experience students will have as engineers once theygraduate and go on to work. Indeed, capstone design projects have evolved to prepare studentsfor “design and practice” as a supplement to core curriculum focused on “theory and research”[4], and capstone is some students’ first significant
