Understanding Fatigue TheoryAbstractIt is well known that more than 90% of metal components in mechanical systems fails due tofatigue. With this in mind, a basic working understanding of fatigue theory is very important tomechanical engineering students. Fatigue theory, however, is only covered with a few lecturesin a typical undergraduate mechanical engineering program’s curriculum. Typical treatmentcould be as few as four lectures during two weeks in our mechanical program at WentworthInstitute of Technology. Because of this, some students were typically confused about fatiguetheory and might not have a basic working understanding of fatigue theory. Students willtypically develop a better understanding of a topic if the same topic is presented to

Sample Result of SPSS statistics software for V9 of engineering and non-engineering students.ResultsSurvey-Based Analysis of Students’ Perception of OER:The web-based OER system can help students by providing plenty of useful features. Keepingthat in mind, 19 variables were selected, and Figure 3 makes it clear that these features were wellliked by the majority of the students. For example, around 90% of the students thought that thissystem provides better quality visuals and helps them review and remember material more easilythan the traditional textbook system. Most importantly, around 90% of the students believed thatthe outcomes of the web-based OER materials exceeded those of the traditional

framework of professional engineering licensure, it is interesting to ask, “Is it ethicalfor university engineering faculty to teach technical subject matter to engineering students withoutobtaining professional licensure?” “Since a professional engineer does have ethical obligations tothe “Hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public” [5], should an engineeringeducator be held to those same standards?” “Will faculty with licensure teach better and producemore practice-minded graduates?” These questions are of interest to the Civil Engineeringdepartment at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology where faculty’s engineering practiceexperience and professional licensure is traditionally highly valued.

DSU’s provost also had akey role in communicating the importance of library resources and his support of includingfunding of library resources in program proposals when necessary. This was critically importantin dispelling the sense that departments shouldn’t include additional funding for library resourceseven when clearly justified. Although funding is tight at the institution, having this direction andsupport from the provost for building library collections is appreciated.The final mechanical engineering program proposal approved by the curriculum committee andacademic council is financially realistic, and as a 2012 ARL Issue Brief [7] stated

However, many students achieve only a low level ofunderstanding with design abilities amounting to “plug-and-chug”. This might be the product ofthe combination of two factors. First, commonly instructors only use traditional teacher-centereddirect instructional practices (e.g. only lecturing and

With this goal in mind, the team looked atseveral implementation paths to create such structures.

As the ultimate focus of the case is for students to justify the ethicality ofcontinuing deep-water drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, we prime students to keep the followingprompt in mind as they work through the case content: “There are overlapping technical andethical questions to consider here: How can we prevent future disasters like the DeepwaterHorizon disaster? Should we be engineering ways to drill in the Gulf of Mexico?” Following thispreliminary text, the case opens with a narrative video that
