  • Mechanical engineering design across cultures : a method of designing for cultures

    Creator:
    Van Bossuyt, Douglas L.
    Abstract:
    Mechanical design is often based on formal methodologies such as Quality Function Deployment. Techniques to quantitatively account for attractability, sensory perception, and affective design have been successfully incorporated into these methods and are receiving growing acceptance across many industries. Although the adoption of these methods marks a large improvement for...

  • Assessing Student Conceptual Understanding : Supplementing Deductive Coding with Natural Language Processing Techniques

    Creator:
    Arbogast, Christian
    Abstract:
    Assessing student conceptual understanding is a valuable method for gauging specific student learning outcomes but can be difficult and time consuming to measure. This research investigates the potential of automating some intermediary steps of a qualitative analysis of student conceptual understanding with tools from the field of Natural Language Processing...

  • Students' Conceptual Understanding of Mechanics and Materials for Axial and Bending Load Cases

    Creator:
    Berger, Amber D.
    Abstract:
    As people learn new concepts, they experience a process termed conceptual change. There are several theories that attempt to explain conceptual change, and this paper uses the framework theory to explain how students learn mechanics of materials. Semi-structured interviews with ninety students were qualitatively analyzed for this research in an...
