Part 1. Pick a case study from Chapter 3 or 4. Read the case study and review it. Prepare a brief written report on the case. You will not be asked to present these orally. The report should have three parts:
1) Summary of the case (brief)
2) What was learned concerning engineering design
3) Another similar example you can find or think of, or more information on
that case.
The report should be prepared using appropriate word-processing software,
with careful attention to appearance as well as content.
Part 2. Complete and submit the following form (Handwritten answers are acceptable).
I need you to provide some information on your interests and schedule to
help form design project teams for your major design project. These
groups will be working on your design project assignments together, building
up to the final presentation and report. In order to facilitate this
process, please fill in some information below that I will try to use when
we put teams together.
