Perhaps the most prominent aspect of threshold concepts is their transformative nature.4 Onemanner of understanding the transformative criterion is to recall a concept that presented anentirely new lens to view the physical (and perhaps nonphysical) world. For example, fromelectrical engineering, one of the first ideas that may come to mind is the Fourier Transform of asignal f(t), ' 𝑓 𝜉 = 𝑓(𝑡) 𝑒 (*+,-. 𝑑𝑡, ∀𝜉 ∈ ℝ (1) ('From a purely mathematical point of view, the transform appears

With this in mind, the EET/TET faculty will be working to developa multi-university mobile platform competition over the next two semesters. It is hopedthat this competition will give other engineering and technology programs a chance toevaluate the mobile platform technology and will allow them to integrate thesetechnologies into their curricula.

Educating ourselves requireskeeping an open mind and giving ourselves the time to learn and examine the relevant issues. We Page 2.56.1can educate ourselves by attending institutes and seminars offered nowadays at most universitiesand at conferences such as ASEE, acquiring and reading the literature from journals such asASEE Prism and the Journal of Engineering Education

such commercial software packages as mysteriousblack boxes, capable of generating results such as pressure drop, drag, and velocitydistributions, it is important for mechanical engineering programs to graduate studentswith a basic understanding of the underlying concepts, capabilities, as well as limitationsof CFD, i.e., graduates capable of assessing the validity and accuracy of the underlyingnumerical techniques used in commercial codes. This is particularly important since the“colorful” results of CFD can often mislead students into trusting all of the results(correct or erroneous) that the computer generates.With this goal in mind, a senior/beginning graduate level course on Computational FluidDynamics (ME 439/539) was introduced in the
