is critical to get students engaged in active learningthrough activities such as solving problems, working with each other, asking questions andgetting feedback.To enhance student learning in Statics, researchers at various institutions have explored othermethods for teaching Statics, such as developing concept map and quantifying students’conceptual understanding[1, 2], developing on-line homework or learning modules[3, 4], peer-led-team-learning[5], project-based learning[6], emporium-based course delivery[7]. Among them, theflipped classroom method[8, 9, 10] has gained popularity. In a flipped classroom, the class time isdevoted to guided instruction where students work through problems with the instructor presentto provide assistance and

It has been proventhat computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models can be a critical tool to model fuel cells. Ourgoal is to take a CFD model from a CAD platform and put it into a virtual reality platform. Bydoing this, students will be able to learn about these more intuitive processes within the subjecttaught. After making a model in SolidWorks and running a simulation with the fuel cell, anundergraduate student compared the results to experimental results from the lab to validate thesimulated model. As part of the undergraduate research efforts, an undergraduate student explored the VRtechnology (engine) and developed

This aligns and guides the material for entry into thedie. As the material enters the die, it is impregnated with resin. Polyester, vinyl ester, andepoxies are typical resins that are used1.

However, once final exams are a month away, everyone becomes very serious. • Part-time jobs: In China, students do not work and attend school. The strong pressure to dedicate substantial time and energy to study does not bode well for working students. • Instructional style: Chinese professors teach content and assign homework. Students are not empowered to research, learn on their own, and apply knowledge (application). In China, the focus is on the textbook. • Grading: In China, grades are not a secret. Grades are posted by name, highest to
