hybrid diesel / electric / fuel cell technology. The dieselpower will be used for moving large distances in short time periods, and the fuel cellpower will be used for silent propulsion for about 30 to 40 minutes. The application thatTACOM has in mind is for the silent operation capability of the MULE is to carrycombat gear for several soldiers while they are moving at walking speeds, possibly to“sneak up on the enemy.”A secondary project for AFE revolves around the American Institute of ChemicalEngineers (AIChE) Chem-E-Car competition.

In the past, our rolein lifelong learning was primarily offering courses and degree programs for practicing engineers;now EC2000 demands that we prepare engineering students to engage in lifelong learning.These demands immediately raise a number of questions, including− What are the critical skills and attributes needed for lifelong learning?− What changes can be

Copyright  2001, American Society for Engineering Education”IV. ConclusionFinite element analysis is now a tool that is used by a large percentage of design engineers.Therefore, the teaching of the finite element method has taken on greater importance. It shouldbe held in mind, however, that FEA is not an independent subject but rather an extension of basicmechanics principles made possible by the revolution in computing during the last 20 years.Therefore, opportunities exist to help students’ understanding of basic mechanics at the sametime they are learning a valuable skill for the workplace. What we have outlined here is a way toaccomplish this by coupling the course with a required course sequence in mechanics.Bibliography1 Brinson, L

alistening ear to anyone experiencing them.Perhaps the most important aspect of Sophie’s narrative is the insight it provides into the phenomenonthat some gendered microaggressions will happen but remain hidden to faculty. Sophie highlights reasonswhy for her and other students experiencing similar microaggressions, they may choose to stay silent:definitively gendered and problematic, they may fear retaliation from or worsening relations with fellowteammates. She also notes that gendered microaggressions are “a society thing, not like a school thing.” Ifwe consider how engineering professors might typically relate to gendered microaggressions – to assumethey are not happening (out of sight out of mind), to worry whether they themselves are

If successfully developed, the approach would be used to enhance theearly stages of an existing five-course PBL sequence in the engineering curriculum at WesternCarolina University (WCU) where this work was conducted. The PBL sequence at WCU hashistorically employed more closed-ended, single-solution design projects. It has been observedby the authors that, particularly in the early stages of the curriculum, emphasis on effectivecommunication, teaming, open-ended problem solving, and an understanding of quality is ofhigh instructional impact.With these objectives in mind, a

In contrast, asynchronous research interviews are not affectedby scheduling limits as participants can complete the interviews in their own time, for example,via email [19] or audio/video recordings [20]. Many studies in EER that use interviewing fordata collection employ synchronous modalities, primarily via in-person or virtually.

premise was to instill a visual image of the engineering principalbeing “discovered” then relate that “discovery” to an equation or concept in hopes of establishinga better understanding in the minds of the students. As an example, the concept of stability andequilibrium are introduced using “the point”, “the line”, and “the plane” models2. First, aconceptual discussion about translations and rotations is presented. Then a more specificdiscussion ensues where the degrees of freedom are established (3, 5, or 6 degrees of freedomdepending on which model is being examined) and whether those degrees of freedom aretranslational or rotational. And that’s the extent of the discussion, no “x”, “y”, or “z”, justmovement in this direction or rotation about
