would be modeled and completed as a 3D design, based on the design of the silicone valvein Figure 3. It would have four pins, as shown in Figure 4(a), to hold the mold in place for easy settingand removal of the mold. The top of the mold, as seen in Figure 4(b), also has two holes that allow foreasy pouring of a silicone mix inside, allowing for easy displacement of the silicone as well as easyremoval of the mold. The mold can be printed using either resin or threaded printing, however, theuse of resin allows for higher design precision. (a) (b) Figure 4: Silicone mold: (a) Bottom portion and (b) Top portion.

After several rounds ofcharacterization and design, four experimental modules were completed which allowed studentto perform the following experiments: a) fluid flow (FLU), b) pump and valve characterization,(CUR) c) heat exchangers (HEX), and d) fixed bed columns (BED). Similar kits have beendesigned by other institutions for experiments on momentum and heat transfer, chemicalkinetics, crystallization, and particle science, either for UOLs or as practical modules for lectureclasses[5]–[8]. Using synchronous video-conferencing instruction, multiple sections of the classwere offered in Fall 2020 (100% online) and Spring 2021 (online + in-person; not in our UOL).In both semesters, students

This qualitative study implemented a process where principles ofcontent analysis and the Delphi methodology were applied in structuring a workingconference. Preliminary results of such process are presented here.Using a Qualitative Approach: The Delphi MethodThe Delphi method facilitates the process of gathering opinions from a group of expertswho share a common interest but usually represent different points of view. The methodis based on a structured and iterative process for extracting knowledge from a panel ofexperts via a series of questionnaires with controlled opinion feedback. The Delphimethod improves the generation of critical ideas by structured

The process is engaging, team-oriented,and encourages revision and alignment of the content across the IC. Depending on theexperience level of the instructor and/or the design teams with the IC, the instructor may eitherdirectly suggest a process for using the IC or allow teams to explore the IC independently. TheIC is ideally suited to support the capstone design experience by providing critical market andbusiness contexts to design projects.8-10 The rest of this paper provides information onintroducing the IC to capstone design students using a reverse engineering activity.Reverse Engineering of an Oral-B® Electric ToothbrushReverse engineering (product

The rationale behindthis decision was as follows: ● As we moved to online instruction, one significant criticism levied against universities was the increased cost that was an especially difficult burden for students from low SES groups. Since these are some of the students targeted for spatial skills instruction, a brief workbook would be less expensive than requiring them to have a printer and toner, a touch-screen computer/tablet, or a stylus for sketching. ● There is evidence

Inexamining this flowchart it should be noted that all courses taught in the major have a significantapplication component (labs, projects etc.). This application component consists of a mixture offormal scientific style lab assignments as well as design and exploratory projects requiringseveral hours each week. The program culminates in a two-course sequence where the studentsconceive, justify, design and build a complete working system. This senior project experience isbased on the highly successful senior project already being done by existing EET students. The

All accredited programs must alsomeet the EC2000 program outcomes a-k and demonstrate through their assessment process thatthese are being met.In addition to the program objectives and EC2000 program outcomes, it must be demonstratedthat the professional component and environmental engineering program criteria are met.
