control in many different perspectives. It can be forecasted that students can gainBIM knowledge and skills more thoroughly within a current curriculum. The steps are listedbelow: Determine the goals to be achieved by applying BIM into teaching. Choose method(s) to apply BIM into courses. At this step, it was determined to use several existing courses. Employ different teaching styles. The selection of teaching style depends on various stages of BIM knowledge and applications, the nature of courses, and the teaching expertise of course instructors. Set up a course framework that integrates BIM concepts and determine changes to be made to the current construction

while the right side represents the mobile components.Various types of data are generated and transmitted from the ambulance to the centralizedserver(s) for processing. Any type of IP data can be transmitted although the 3G cellular networkdoes have bandwidth limitations that must be considered.Figure 2 shows how EKG transmittal is achieved both physically and logically aboard theambulance. The patient is connected to the defibrillator and thrombolytic data is captured. Thisdata is archived in the memory of the defibrillator and is then transmitted to the 911 center RSServer as IP packets. These packets are then rendered into a proprietary format on that serverwhich can then be exported and transmitted via email to the emergency room. This

Analytical expressionsare available to relate these coefficients to the geometry and mass distribution of the airplane.Table 2 Airplane Equations of MotionA model validation example is illustrated in Figure 5. This example represents the type ofanalysis results that are expected as part of the student technical reports. The airplane is trimmedat an airspeed of approximately 8 m/s. The pilot applies a full deflection, Trailing-Edge-Up(TEU) elevator input and then returns the control to the trim position. The pilot control input iscaptured by the on-board data logger and is shown as the orange line in Figure

Firmware DesignThe transmitter firmware, written in combination of the free version Hi-Tech C and MPASMassembler, demonstrates some of the capabilities if the rfPIC12F675 by transmitting the status ofthe two buttons GP3 and GP4 on the transmitter4 5. A 0x23h is transmitted if the left button ispressed and a 0x43 is transmitted if the right button is pressed. The Xmit function used totransmit the data uses a simplified KeeLoq protocol based on the assembler code provided withthe PICkit 1 and has been adapted to interface to the Hi-Tech C compiler. The Xmit functions

In order to conduct this qualitativeanalysis, a series of transformed drawings are needed. Therefore, this preliminary study was thefirst step for further investigations.

The powerful workstationprocessor of 1990 is now a $2 embedded component and multiple 1990 supercomputersare routinely available for each system management function. The same electronicscapability now allows data to be collected at Gbyte/s rates. Control functions can bedetermined by complex algorithms rather than constrained closed loops. Moresignificantly, all the data can be stored for future analysis or reports. Low cost, high datarate fiber or wireless communications is the glue that holds the system together.The industry has exploited the new technology to create a global marketplace of suppliersand users.

identify the technological impactsover time. The students in this class chose to pursue medicine, agriculture, currency, and waterresources, and either these or other topics may be utilized to teach this concept. Student directionand input made this course more approachable to non-engineering students and allowed them toidentify more easily with technological concepts. We have found that this design for impacts oftechnology to enhance technological literacy was effective, and that a similar design could beeffective at other institutions.Bibliography 1. Petrina, S.
