‐Average, 3‐Good, 4‐Excellent, 5‐Not observed, 6‐Did not assess Since 2008, the Engineering Technology Department has started to incorporate the use of moreformal rubrics when evaluating outcomes. This has been a gradual change and the rubrics wereedited several times in those years as faculty worked with the rubrics. Tables 5 and 6 below areoutcome assessment data evaluated by a group of faculty advisers based on new rubrics. Page 22.481.13 Table 5. Capstone Project Assessment Results - ABET Outcome b.

are: a) students can write down mathematics ina programming-like way, using symbolic notations; b) less time spent with calculations leavesmore time for physical analysis; c) geometric visualization of results; d) learning and becomingproficient in a high-level programming language; and e) there availability of free softwareapplications, using well-documented algorithms. Derive and MathCAD are already implementedon a pocket calculator, and more extensive packages, such as Mathematica and Maple, run onany desktop computer. In several branches of mathematics, physics and engineering, computeralgebra systems have been increasingly popular as a tool for constructing proofs, solutions andvisualizing the results.

Specifically, the effect of the step response of elevators and throttle on the longitudinal motion and the rudder and aileron deflection required to obtain specific lateral steady states are discussed. 4. Closed Loop Control: The final topic in the undergraduate aircraft dynamics and control course is a brief introduction to closed loop flight control. Some of the specific flight controllers discussed are a. Phugoid Suppression Controller b. Speed Controller c. Lateral Control

Aeronautical University, Prescott AZAbstract The development of an undergraduate advanced experimental aerodynamics course isdiscussed in this article. The aim of the course is to allow an easier transition to graduate levelresearch through development of problem solving skills as well as exposure to the researchprocess. The course comprises a mixture of applied theoretical and hands on project basedlearning. The theory component is modular, with coverage of topics supportive of the assignedprojects. Use of numerical tools for airfoil and aircraft analysis is required, as is proficiency inLabView for data acquisition. Projects are performed in groups. Students generally conduct twoprojects. One is equipment based, where students become proficient
