As the class average was above80%, we can consider this result to indicate satisfactory proficiency overall. A second example(1P) involves the behavior of a sequential logic element: the JK flip-flop (FF). Given a diagramof the JK FF with a negative-edge triggered clock input, and a timing diagram showing the pulsetrain waveforms for the clock, J and K inputs, the student was to predict the output of the JK FF.On this item, students scored an average of 4.35 out of 5 points.

The theory is that if a mass of substantial weight (thebattery) is displaced from the center of the unit, the unit will move to regain equilibrium. Theconceptual design shown in (b) utilizes motor driven gears that will rotate the shell of theelliptical unit. The equilibrium seeking conceptual design has the advantage over the dual gearedmotor design in the sense that it allows for rotation on all axes while the dual geared motordesign doesn’t. When the evaluation was performed, the equilibrium seeking unit ranked thehighest in the critical criteria of ease of implementation, final manufacturing cost, and reliability
