Jalkio Department of Engineering University of St. ThomasAbstractOne advantage of having clearly articulated learning objectives for courses is that students canfocus on these objectives to help them unify course material. Unfortunately, students oftenignore the stated course objectives and focus their attention on the specific work required to earngood grades from the instructor

A tenthquestion, not involving any variables, was included as a control question.The survey instrument was prepared in two versions, one using the variables x and y, the otherversion using the variables g, h, m, n, p, Q, q, r, s, t, and r. The questions on the two versions wereidentical except for the variables used. (See Figures 2 and 3)The survey was conducted on an unannounced basis. Calculators were allowed. The grade historywas completed first, after which fifteen minutes were given for the problem-solving portion.One hundred twenty five survey forms were completed; of these, four were multiple responses from

This compliance system alongwith the conical tip of the alignment pins may compensate for misalignments as large as a fewmillimeters, which are much larger than the usual limitations in a robot’s accuracy andrepeatability.The workcell for automated fuel cell assembly (see Figure 1) demonstrated during the capstonedesign project class consists of a single Fanuc S 420F robot and a workbench on

Figure 4: Experimental setup and preliminary temperature measurement results We checked our expectation for temperature rise by performing some analytical temperature predictions. These predicted a quick temperature rise (less than 1 sec) and 10’s of degrees of rise. We checked the thermocouple by immersing it in hot water and cold water and collecting the temperature measurements. These simple trials showed us that the thermocouple was working properly and that it could respond quickly

Once they move on to more advanced designs, theycan take advantage of co-simulation to reinforce their waveform testbenches. They will be ableto catch errors easily missed in a waveform test environment. Co-simulation will also help indesign projects since students can simulate and document11 entire projects including signalconditioning and output drivers.Bibliography 1.

. Students then had to select whichelements from their portfolio they wished to share. After selecting the elements to include in thepresentation, students had to identify the person(s) the presentation was to be shared with. Thisinvolved adding the userid and finally saving the presentation. Since the “SAVE” button was atthe bottom of the screen, and students often had to scroll to see it, this last SAVE was oftenskipped. This resulted in the instructor not being able to view the presentation although thestudent had created it. The Educational Technologies office worked throughout the semester tofix problems with the software and access; however, at the end of the semester 45% of studentsstill indicated that they had problems with VTeP in preparing
