Ravikumar University of Wisconsin, PlattevilleABSTRACTAssessment is the next most important activity that follows teaching-learning in the classroom.Assessment plans must be carefully strategized from a top-down perspective complemented by bottom-uprealities. The assessment plan strategy must include elements of robustness which would make the resultsfrom implementation of the plan as insensitive as possible and hence more reliable to unavoidablevariations. Examples of robustness assessment include assessment at the individual student level

Principles of Particle Technology: Philosophy, Topics & Experiments Keith B Lodge University of Minnesota Duluth Proceedings of the 2011 North Midwest Section ConferenceIntroductionGenerally there are key basic experiments that define the development of the subjects that weteach. For example, the experiments of Joule and Reynolds underpin thermodynamics and fluidmechanics. In the classroom we attempt to convey the results and conclusions of fundamentalexperiments in a period that is a minute fraction of the time in which the original experimentswere done and the corresponding concepts developed.

In the first step, A is actively attending to B’s expression of experience(and hoping/trusting A will be receptive). B’s experience becomes known to A in a second step.

Some of the costs were offset bydonations from industry.Although the lab stations are different machines, they share common features so that generalskills such as jogging axes, I/O mapping, user interface mapping, motion profile programming,etc. are all the same regardless of the machine.

This course was held inSpring 2020, where students started the course fully in-person and shifted to synchronous virtualinstruction shortly after the mid-semester survey. The course was at the introductory level, and itwas the first major-specific course in the curriculum. The course is typically taken in the springsemester of the second year, so students may know each other and have some experience withcollege level instruction.The other cohort (Cohort B) started the course in Fall 2020 with synchronous virtual instructionwith plans for partial in-person instruction.

B. Hybrid/blended format in Fall 2020/Spring 2021: In Fall 2020, new challenges were introduced. Since the students' survey indicated their in-person instruction preferences, the instruction delivery moved to a blended model of zoom lectureand in-person LABs. The major challenge was to meet the 6-feet requirement for social distancingduring the LAB setup. Our LABS are generally equipped with 24 workstations for each student.During Fall 2020 and continuing in Spring 2021, the class was divided into two groups, and

the fatigue experiments are destructive since weneed to apply cyclic loading until the failure of the structure. Also, fatigue experiments may takea long time since, in some cases, we need to apply a very large number of cycles in order tocause a fracture in the specimen. Both of these issues (i.e., cost and time) are not an issue in VLssince a) it is free for students to run as many experiments as they desire and b) theaforementioned “fast-forwarding” button allows students to conduct all experiments within amatter of seconds. Thus, in the case of the fatigue lab, we can easily plot the S-N curve based onthe VL results, whereas doing so based on the hands-on experiments alone is difficult.6.
