. Student clickson the shielding blocks placed on the table, which moves them next to a scale, allowing the student tomeasure their thickness. Next, clicking on the block moves it to the space between the radiation sourceand the detector. Counts can then be measured by setting the time interval and clicking on the counterbutton. Process is repeated for different number of shielding blocks; thus gathering data for differentthicknesses. Entire process can then be repeated for blocks made of different material. Figure 4 showsthe thickness measurement step. Figure 5 shows the lead shielding blocks, next to labels A, B, C, …, foruse in the shielding experiment.

AC 2007-3105: A PROJECT-BASED APPROACH TO TEACHING THE NUCLEARFUEL CYCLEErich Schneider, Dr. Schneider received his PhD in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics from Cornell University in 2002. During the final two years of his graduate study at Cornell, he held the position of Lecturer. From 2002-2006, he was a Technical Staff Member in the Nuclear Systems Design Group at Los Alamos National Laboratory. In January, 2006, Dr. Schneider joined the Mechanical Engineering faculty at the University of Texas at Austin. He is affiliated with the Nuclear and Radiation Engineering Graduate Program at that institution

effort in order to receive higher than MRgrade. The College looked into the reasons for this and investigated ways in which the gradingsystem could be changed to encourage students to put more effort in developing their ITAreports so that higher grade could be achieved. It has recently been decided to convert the abovegrading scale points to integer values; where HR = 3, R = 2, MR = 1, and NR = 0. After an ITAhas been graded by faculty, a sum of integer values for each grading scale point will becomputed. If the ITA has no NR grades, letter grades of A, B. C, and F will be assigned for 31-39, 22-30, 13-21, and less than 13, respectively. The letter grades will carry the customary gradepoints and will be counted in computing the student grade

example is to compute the volume averaged flux over a sphere with a point source at the center, whichis again easily related to path-length.Doing these two calculations involves simply setting up some integrals, and knowing that φ goesas 1/(4πr2 ). The integrals that result are relatively elementary, but the integrals in the two ap-proaches (volume average of φ vs. path-length computation) do not at first appear related. Theyare presented in detail in Appendix B. In doing these two integrals students will discover that theyyield the same result: the volume average scalar flux over the sphere is equal to the rate at whichpath-length is generated only within the sphere divided by the volume of the sphere.
