through understanding rather than memorization and copying. Learning how to think, how to self reflect, how to take personal responsibility for learning, and the development of expert problem solving skills are all reasons why this style of teaching is life changing for many students.Mr. Mostafa Amin-Naseri, Iowa State University Mostafa Amin-Naseri, is a masters student in industrial engineering in Iowa State University.

installed on both the inputand the output of the actuators. These can be seen in Figure 14 designated ‘B’. All componentsof the pneumatic system are standard products with no modifications.Figure 15 shows the floor location sensors used to signal the control measures when the cart is atthe desired floor. They are optical gate switches through which a metal tab on the elevator carpasses. Figure 16 shows the limit switches that are installed at the top and bottom of the mainrail on each side of the elevator support shaft. These limit switches are fed to the supervisorycontrol so it can automatically stop the motor drive in the event a user tries to move a car beyondsafe limits. Figure 15.

distance.Although the teams did not have to deal with the struggles of language or time zone that aninternational project would face, they were forced to establish a work and leadership plan withpeople they had not met. The two cohorts faced other challenges. One group came from aprivate university (University A) with a substantial international population. The other groupcame from a state university (University B) with very few students who were not raised in theMidwest. One class was twice the size of the other. The largest challenge was that one grouphad completed several design projects in previous classes and anticipated a design project in thiscourse. For the other, this was their first chemical engineering design project and the firstsemester that
