These need not be all of the reactions that occur in the real system. Note that a multi-step catalytic reaction mechanism with one overall rate law (e.g., Michaelis-Mention, Monod, or Langmuir-Hinshelwood) counts as one reaction.  information about the rate laws (2) – is a rate law known for a particular catalyst? Or will an expression from Ch. 9 or 10 of (Fogler 2011) be used for the rate law? Identify sources of data relevant to the rate laws for the system

testsby allowing each user performs the tasks on only two platforms. Platform order will be assignedto users randomly. By reducing the platforms to two, the time per user will be greatly reduced,the learning effect will only be from one platform to a second platform, rather than across fourplatforms. By randomizing the platform selections, we will have as many subjects learning fromplatform A to B as we do from B to A. Statistically the learning effect will be removed. Thisapproach requires significantly more test subjects but will require a much shorter test time foreach.3.2 Metrics of PerformanceQuantifiable metrics permit quantitative analysis, as has been discussed. The metrics selected forthe tasks as discussed above are time, errors and

Thesteps in the operation of this type are (a) process planning (b) part programming (c)part programming entry (d) proving the part program and (e) the machining of thepart. Process planning includes the rough cutting and finish cutting and is a commonfeature for all generations but the processes vary according to their capabilities.

enough with our only big obstacle being the selectionof our power generator and creating the pulley set up. We decided to add both a data logger, forreal life data, and calculated data in order to compare the two data sets. Although our project didnot produce as much power as we had initially intended, it could produce a decent amount ofpower given the efficiency rating being calculated at 7.52%. Overall, the project taught us aboutmotor selection, power production, efficiency ratings, mechanical design, problem solving, andother skills. This project was also aligned with STEM education goal due to necessity of hand-onskill when we completed the windmill design.References[1] B. K. Hodge. (2010).

The two PD facilitators had extensive experience in active learning both inteaching engineering and mathematics courses for undergrads and in professional developmentfor university instructors. The objective of this workshop was three-fold: a) To gather data to know the instructors’ initial beliefs about teaching11. b) To introduce instructors to constructivism and active learning as a methodology that can be used in mathematics. That is, making participants aware that traditional teaching often does not foster learning and that a student-centered teaching strategy has a better chance

It allowed Professor DV to check on students’ progress to know when to bring the class back together to discuss the problem. b. It gave students an opportunity to raise their hands and ask private questions one-on-one with Professor DV.3. Checking Progress: Professor DV asked students to raise their hands if they had finished particular steps of the problem, such as drawing a free-body diagram or choosing a coordinate system (e.g. Cartesian or polar).4.
