the simplicity to be built bystudents over the course of five semesters. The work is designed to test two hypotheses: 1. A long-term design project that integrates knowledge from multiple courses strengthens student knowledge retention. 2. A large-scale design project requiring tools from many courses improves student problem-solving and design skills.By integrating five semesters of the mechanical engineering curriculum into a cohesive whole,this project has the potential to transform the way undergraduate education is delivered. Beforeand after testing is being conducted to assess: a) Change in retention between courses and b)Change in student problem-solving and design skills.Students at Rowan University have built almost all

To fix the two systems, there are Page 24.1092.3two mini-games that the player must complete to accomplish their mission.

Depending on the lab, the DUTwill be a comparator, a DAC, or an ADC. The DIB contains circuits that will allow the DUT to beplaced into different configurations for different specification tests (e.g. input bias current, offsetvoltage, linearity, propagation delay, etc.). The DIB circuits may be as simple as load structures(output resistors and/or capacitors) or input resistors to gain up input current measurements, or ascomplicated as negative feedback servo-loops to force the device into a known state.
