As opposed to asking students to answer pointed questions, as in the previous application, students are asked to discover the engineering economy subject matter present in a given article. This forces students to interpret the articles and examine them from a “bigger picture”, or topical, perspective. For example, in April of 2001, Midwest Express announced that it was purchasing new jets from Boeing and Embraer 2. The students found topics concerning equipment replacement, technology choice, capacity expansion, risk analysis and cash flow analysis in the article.3.

That way they would be able to complete the build and create a well-functioningdevice by the end of the semester. The second change that was made to the machine designproject build was the encouragement of using rapid prototyping technology. Students wereencouraged to use the engineering program’s rapid prototyping machine to explore fit andfunction before spending a lot of time machining the finished version of complicated parts. Theywere also allowed to use the rapid prototyping machine to create finished components if thestresses in their design
