Onlyone responding institution is accredited through EngineersCanada, with the rest accreditedthrough ABET. Respondents to the survey are similar in size to the departments in the UnitedStates. The distribution of sizes for departments in the top 50 by graduating class size is shownin Figure 1 [2] for both the United States and the survey respondents. In this box-and-whiskersplot, the mean graduating class size is marked by an x, the extremes are marked by the whiskers,the box bottom and top are the first and
dimensions. This methodology reinforces key concepts while covering the variousstyles of learning affording all students the greatest opportunity for learning andultimately enhancing their professional careers. The teaching opportunities that arepotentially available in this manner are motivating for not only the student but also forthe instructor to continually seek improvement in how instructional materials arepresented and how student can be effectively challenged to magnify their learningexperience.References:1.

After the completion of each topical area, the students took a post-test and apost-affect survey. Three times during the semester (Pre, Mid, and Post), a student outcomessurvey was administered. All tests and exercises were graded using uniform grading rubrics. Atthe end of the semester, the students also completed a final report that included a learningeffectiveness survey for each of the eight challenges and a matrix that mapped generalBiomechanics topics to the modules.

aphenomenon caused by a microorganism, Aureoumbra lagunensis, that discolors thewater. The turbidity of the water has a negative impact on the seagrasses that grow in theshallow waters in the vicinity of Corpus Christi. In turn, the entire ecosystem isnegatively affected; ducks lose feeding grounds, larval fish and other creatures losehabitat, larger animals also lose feeding grounds. The Brown Tide persisted for severalyears in the 1990’s, and the natural consequences became economic ones2.Brown Tide is a complex phenomenon. SCAMP took on the task of measuring turbidity.To start, we simply took the students to the field to observe it. This was aided by a toolcalled a Secchi disk3. The Secchi disk has a diameter of about 6 to 8 inches and isdivided

A significant part of the student's assignment is topost analyses on ethics at the course web site, for critique and response by other students.Each post is moderated by the faculty team for content and appropriateness, and gradedon a 6 point scale. The posts are organized by threads, which are often begun by thefaculty team. In their posts the students need to "focus on making a point (or points) andthen giving reasons for the point(s) (they) have made … (They) may …make positiveclaims (in favor of

Prices may change but should be close tothis price:The dc motor controller is shown below. We used either 12 V for power to the motor or 24 Vdepending on the rating of the DC motor. This controller is very inexpensive and canaccommodate either the 12 V or 24 V varieties. It is also used in the tank-over-tank lab in HybridText Ch. 25. It works well with the cheap power supplies (MeanWell or equivalent) for mostapplications. 6

Cross-quarter and cumulative data analysis will be performed to gauge whether therelationship between time on task and weekly/final scores become clearer and whethercumulative data would present methods that would allow the use of time on task as an effectivemonitoring tool. At such time, historical data on recurring projects will be reviewed to see if itprovides any additional information.References[1] Kemmer, G., Keller, S.
