Both these courses provide students withtheoretical knowledge and hands on experience. The ABET outcomes for ME-335/L class are asfollows:1. an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering, outcome (a),2. an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data, outcome (b),3. an ability to communicate effectively (3g1 orally, 3g2 written), outcome (g), and4. an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering

-0.181 0.0240There are many possible “prior experiences,” and Table 1 suggests no one or two experiences isvital for developing hands-on ability or mechanical aptitude. We took the analysis a step furtherto try and identify a set of experiences that would develop this ability. As such, we selected 20items with |r| > 0.20. We then performed an exploratory factor analysis with varimax rotation onthese items. Based on both intelligibility of the factor solution and criteria regarding the amountof variance accounted for, we determined a reasonable 5-factor solution accounting for 58% ofthe variance. These 5 factors were (a) prior tool usage (7 items), (b) formal dance training (4items), (c) outdoors skills (3 items), (d) racket

right venue for this learningobjective. Rather, we moved that open-ended project to the senior-level lab course, after thestudents had learned (a) how to confidently use several common transducers, and (b) how tocollect, analyze, and present data in a credible manner for a well-defined problem.In the week-4 lab period, devoted to the project, students are generally able to fabricate theapparatus they designed in week 3 and make a preliminary measurement. At this early stage, ourobjective is for students to get a rough value for their result even if they haven’t had time toassemble all the transducers they plan to use. It is intended to give them an early start on gettingthe apparatus assembled, and verify the feasibility of their design.Three
