In line with this view, the two following issues from the health and food science fieldswere investigated in the laboratory section of the Photonics course: 1. Does the color of glass make a difference in bottled beer quality? If so, which color of glass provides tastier and fresher beer? 2. Does this apply to other consumer beverages such as milk? If so, which type of plastic milk container keeps milk fresher and healthier?This paper intends to show how these two experiments were developed and outline the results ofthe experiment.INTRODUCTION:The

As a practice oriented teaching school, GVSU highly emphasizes the culmination of thelearning process by the realistic execution of the principles and techniques taught in a course. Inthat tradition, this course employed a semester ending project as an important tool to develop theproper understanding of the course materials.This particular project idea involved improving the efficiency, performance and workenvironment at the Science, Technology, and Engineering Preview Summer (STEPS) camp heldat Grand Valley State University.

Thus, basic physics has traditionally been taught by physicists, chemistry by chemists,and calculus by mathematicians. As it becomes more and more clear that all modern biologyshould be added to the list of basic sciences that all engineers should be introduced to, it is thusnatural that introductory biology courses should be taught by biologists.

Without reinforcing these basic skills in upper-level courses by demonstratingapplications that use the software, the student may perceive the introductory course as havingbeen a waste of time and money.In civil engineering, the development of Mathcad by the software firm Mathsoft has provided thecivil design engineer a valuable tool capable of producing calculation packages that are bothreadily modified and easily reviewed. The need for “reviewability” is more acutely felt in thecivil engineering discipline because the practice of civil engineering often includes reviewingand sealing calculations.
