situations.From previous experience with the Engineering of Everyday Things project [6], the hardwareportion is the easy part. Identifying the concept and creating appropriate worksheets is thedifficult part, and will probably take several iterations. It is important that the worksheets areclear and enhance the students learning instead of causing confusion. Poor worksheet design caneasily result in the students spending more time trying to figure out what is being asked than inactually thinking about the concept.One of the key features of the worksheets will be one or more questions to determine if thestudents can transfer the knowledge they should be gaining from the exercises to other situationswhich do not necessarily look like the exercise.

on top of the regular lab assignments. Both thestudents’ and instructor’s work load went up as compared to previous years. Additional tasksrequired of the instructor were license arrangements, practicing with the software, in-classdemonstrations, supplementing lab handouts, and grading assignments. Altogether the use ofFlowLab adds about 2-3 hours of work per week during the first year.The course is largely structured by two course projects. Hydrostatics, buoyancy, Bernoulli’sequation theory, and control volume analysis are followed by similitude analysis. The latterbecomes the basis of the first project, where students design and build model sail boats. Hulltests on the models are performed closer to the end of the semester, and predictions

Which means the idea that the MES student wouldbe able to work, communicate and team up with the engineers is valid.In addition, in our ES260 (where there are no engineering students) the students from business,economics, architecture, and design colleges are interested to work with engineering students intheir projects. This has been the most interesting and unexpected result of our implementation.Students in the minor program would like to work with engineering students, on engineeringprojects, and also would like to see some back of the envelope engineering
