Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference & Exposition Copyright © 2003, American Society for Engineering EducationBased on the analysis presented in this paper, the two greatest strengths are (1) IEW’s ability toadapt their goals to the interests and needs of new members each academic year and (2) thecollaboration between members of IEW and each year’s Capstone Design class. By allowing thisadaptability, IEW members are more committed to team goals established each year because thesealign more fully with what each member finds meaningful. Collaboration between graduatestudent mentors and Capstone Design students is critical for undertaking industry projects thatinvolve state of the art technology and

These loading case sometimeshave different operating points and load lines. Students were able to quickly perform staticyielding analyses using the same Modified Goodman diagram, a useful convenience on bothquizzes and examinations.In summary, this fatigue analysis methodology has allowed the author to streamline fatigueinstruction to both engineering and engineering technology students at the same time increasingcomprehension.VIII.

Teaming andcommunication skills are being addressed in a relatively small number of college courses. Inorder to get students who can solve real problems, we must address the need for developmentand implementation of course modules in innovation and inventiveness in different disciplines,especially engineering and technology. Such modules can and should be designed to enhanceteaming, communication and interpersonal skills.This paper discusses some of the problems in teaching innovative problem solving and suggestssome possible solutions based on experience in an undergraduate course at Florida AtlanticUniversity titled: “Introduction to

Benches had no convenient means for housing test equipment, and no space for a personal computer, let alone an oscilloscope.7. Antiquated cradled dynamometers with a spring-lever dial-type scale were used to measure torque on a handful of motors, for which accuracy was always suspect.Based on this set of concerns the following objectives for the new energy lab were proposed:1. Lab should incorporate a variety of electrical engineering technologies that students may interact with while performing the actual lab exercise, thus giving them immediate insight into the field of electrical engineering.2.
