In most cases, the cost of acontrol system increases based on its complexity, thus the optimal performance to cost ratio isdesirable1,2,3.

?IntroductionGraduate student instructors (GSIs) are not only essential to the instructional team at manyresearch institutions, but their teaching appointments are often the only teaching experiencesthey have prior to becoming faculty. Moreover, GSIs have been found to play an important rolein improving student retention and inclusion in science, technology, engineering and math fields(STEM) [1]. Undergraduate instructional aids (IAs) have also been found to benefit studentlearning [2, 3, 4], and their training is fundamental to that success [4, 5]. As a result, calls havebeen made to develop and improve the professional development of student instructors [4, 6].Trainings at different institutions range from two-hour departmental orientations with no

These skills must be emphasized in the curriculum.While these two factors were the primary reasons for change, the committee felt therewhere a number of other drivers for change, some of which would be better addressed atthe level of individual courses. Those included the following:• The proliferation of new problem solving tools (such as engineering software packages) which permit more emphasis on design and optimization.• Rapidly changing technology that necessitates introduction of new material into the core curriculum that may not have been traditionally considered "mechanical."

One of the misperceptions manystudents had in the first version of the module was that it was relevant only to electricalengineering because of the use of circuits and a microcontroller in the control system. Toaddress this misperception, we begin by having students research sensor technologies used bypractitioners in their anticipated field of engineering (mechanical, civil, chemical, electrical,etc.). Students see that the principles of sensors and data collection apply to all fields ofengineering. We
