recent decades in which terms like “carpal tunnel syndrome”and “repetitive motion stress” have become part of the cultural lexicon. But how does theengineer assure that the solution he has reached will not only be effective, but safe for theend user? Analysis of the design parameters can establish if the solution falls withinknown ergonomic parametric standards, but often the analysis falls short of optimal anddesign changes are required to accommodate unforeseen issues encountered in theimplementation of the design. A solution to this problem is to conduct 3D simulationsthat allow engineers to clearly visualize the implementation of the design in its intendedenvironment, complete with simulated users. Technology has finally advanced to thepoint

Blendedlearning as a term emerged in 19993 and refers to the blending of "text-based asynchronousInternet technology with face-to-face learning,"4 where the primary role of ICT is tocomplement student learning as opposed to replace face-to-face time.5 One form of blendedlearning that is becoming increasingly common in tertiary science and engineering educationis the combined use of Flipped Classroom (FC) and Just-in-Time Teaching (JiTT).

laboratory expansion was essential to better achieve real-time executionof distributed simulation of plant-wide power plant systems. Prior to the expansion, the distributed simulationwas implemented on general purpose Vax mainframe computers with coordination through a Unix workstation.The general purpose Vax computers are used for a variety of College of Engineering research and courses. Itwas thus difficult to command enough priority to always obtain real-time performance when a large number ofother users were on the system. Priorities on the expanded IDCRL can be scheduled as required to achievedesired levels of real-time performance. And, the newer technology of the Spare computers offers betterperformance than the Vax 8550 mainframes. Since the
