engineering teams and engineering students. Withthis in mind, the recommendations from our study can be implemented and studied inengineering classes that include projects. Researchers will want to investigate the followingquestions: 1. How can virtual teams integrate social interactions into a meeting structure to foster trust between team members? Is it best to include time for social interactions before, during, or after discussing project details? How do virtual teams establish comfortable environments for team members to have personal conversations? 2. What planning documents do engineering students find helpful for effective communication for establishing clear expectations and building trust? 3. What meeting

a traditional stringed-instrument’s tuningmechanism and tensioned. The carbon fiber is too brittle to be wrapped around a tuning pegthough, so the first step in making the string involved bonding durable ends to them; a roundwound bass string was used. The metal string portion of the composite is short so that whenmounted, the metal is not within the playable span of the string. After the ends were cured, oneend was fixed to a wooden structure five feet above the floor and the other end was fixed to acantilever setup just above the floor’s surface. When weights were added to the cantilever, thestring would be pulled in tension. Carbon fiber is brittle, so it’s difficult to find a section of towwithout a few broken fibers. With this in mind

to document student outcomes in engineeringeducation has been driven by the adoption of revised engineering accreditation criteria,Engineering Criteria 2000 (EC2000).1 In Criteria 3, portfolios are mentioned as one wayto document and assess student outcomes. In a white paper issued in 1996 by the JointTask Force on Engineering Education Assessment, portfolios were referred to as beingcorrelated with nine of the eleven desired attributes of engineering graduates identified inEC2000.2A portfolio has been described as a "purposeful collection of student work that exhibitsthe student's efforts, progress, and achievements. The collection must include studentparticipation in selecting contents, the criteria for selection, the criteria for judging
layout, and leads to a designthat more rapidly configures onto hardware. A behavioral description (or architecture) tends tolook more like a traditional program. Some behavioral descriptions such as counters and statemachines synthesize well into hardware. Other behavioral descriptions, particularly those thatinvolve memory, or operations such as multiplication and division, may not lead to a design thatcan be synthesized onto an FPGA. Simply writing a design as a traditional sequential programwithout considering the hardware that is being described may not lead to a synthesizable design.A better approach is to describe some sub-components behaviorally, but keep in mind the overallhardware architecture when describing the circuit, and write

demonstrate the cognitive benefits of using kineticdiagrams based on Cognitive Load Theory, an instructional design framework derived from thecognitive architecture.Just like we need to follow laws of motion to design machines as engineers, we, as mechanicsinstructors, should develop instruction strategies by following principles of learning. According toCognitive Load Theory, learning will be hindered if the cognitive load exceeds working memorycapacity [6]. The cognitive load could be imposed by either the intrinsic nature of learningmaterials (i.e., intrinsic cognitive load) or the instruction manners in which the materials arepresented (i.e., extraneous cognitive load). Therefore, we need to keep students’ working memorylimitation in mind when we
