., P.E. and Jim Kish Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo / Kish FabricationAbstractThe common safety bicycle design first appeared in Brittan in the 1870s. In the 130 years since,engineers and craftsmen have created hundreds of new bicycle designs, fabrication methods,materials and components. However, the simplistic diamond frame design has survived, is stillcommercially available and fully functional. The bicycle itself provides a rich learning platform inwhich to illustrate topics such as design, manufacturing process planning, tooling, materials, and thedesign/build process. This paper gives a status report on the development of a course that teachesengineering undergraduates the process of building a bicycle frame. Learning

experience in the domain task and explicit instructions to becreative produce more creative outcomes when given more choice.3 Experience in architecture also contributes to factors such as designers being more efficient, solutions being lessrisky and more appropriate but not being more creative. Some have theorized that creativity is equivalent to anintelligent quotient (IQ) but no successful tests have been developed to prove it. Lack of experience also haspsychological effects on the individual i.e., feelings of incompetence at a creative task (Deci 2005).

computer scientists build tools and provide solutions for diverse audiences,those who practice engineering should represent a diverse population. Among the severalunderrepresented groups in engineering and computer science are people with disabilities.Furthermore, people with disabilities pursue post-secondary education at a lower rate than theirnon-disabled peers. The combination of these factors suggest the importance of outreach effortsto help students with disabilities transition to and succeed in college and careers related toengineering and computer science.This paper describes a week-long workshop related to computer science that is part of a one-week-long summer session of a multiple-year program for high school students with

” have come todominate analog and digital electronics, introductory electronics courses in Electrical andComputer Engineering programs have evolved to place greater emphasis on CMOStransistors and amplifiers. However, due to the perception that chip design is tooesoteric, both lecture and laboratory coverage of this important topic are usually deferredto more advanced courses. Design experiences are instead limited to “breadboard”circuits using discrete components and operational amplifiers.This paper presents a new approach to teaching introductory electronics that incorporatesthe design and layout of CMOS chips. The coverage of topics in the two-semestersequence only needs minor changes from the traditional approach. Topics on the physicsand
