Instructors need to make sure thatthe assignments are scored as objectively as possible when evaluating a project. A rubric helpsto set clear expectations and defines the quality of work for a given project. Descriptive scoringschemes have become a common method for evaluating

section of this paper will present asimple student project where the Globalspec search engine plays an important role inbringing the final product to the market in a short period of time. In particular, we willdetail the solutions to the following project: The design of a Class B Power Amplifier.5. Class B Power Amplifier Design Figure 7: Class B Power AmplifierFigure 7 represents the circuit of a Class B Push-Pull Power Amplifier. An analysis ofthis circuit shows that the amplifier has a voltage gain of unity. If we assume that theinput voltage Vi = 12 Vrms (Vi(p) = 17 V), then the peak value of the output voltage will beVL(p) = 17 V as well. If we choose RL = 4 Ω, we can determine the output power acrossthe load (PO

college engineering programs, the logistical and commercial feasibility of shippingboxes or palettes of equipment was investigated. This will allow community colleges to borrow,rent, or lease rather than own the equipment. The laboratories were also developed to becompletely self-contained so that all materials needed arrive in a single box in a ready-to-usecondition. This was intended to minimize the preparation time for instructors in the two yearcollege environment. These laboratories are suitable for use in either introduction to engineeringor courses on engineering topics for non-engineers. The laboratories attempt to utilize insightsfrom non-engineering students to determine themes that may enliven introduction to engineeringcourses
