Finally, engineering crystalsynthesis by means of electrospray (Fig. 3) is largely an open field in which we have already hadsome interesting results.

question #35 is much more difficult than question #34, butits percentage of correct answer is higher (53.8%). We believe that the cause lies at thecorrelation among the questions #32-34, because all of them are on the same P-V diagram shownin Fig. 2 (b). More specifically, they are on work (#32), internal energy (#33), and heat transfer(#34). The details of the test result are the following: five students (32, 33, 34), twostudents (32, 33, 34), three students (32, 33, 34). These ten students might haveapplied the first law of thermodynamics in answering question #34. If they made one mistake ineither question #32 or question #33, they would select a wrong answer in question #34. On theother hand, the remaining three students did not pay

Journals were collected randomly once a week. When collected, journals werereviewed and graded in a 10 scale system: 9 means good, 6 is OK and 2 means bad.

, only a small number of engineering students study physics either as a second major orat an advanced level in institutions of higher education, such as Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology(RHIT). Engineering technology students in general at Southeastern Louisiana University (SELU) also lacksufficient knowledge of physics, and their performance in classes such as Engineering Statics oftensuffers as a result.With these challenges in perspective, an effort is being made to encourage student interest so that they(a) can discover how to apply physics principles in real-world situations, and thus enhance theirbackground for an engineering/technology discipline, and (b) can be retained in the physics departmentat RHIT, with physics either as a first
