TI  - Product Development Meets Instructional Design- A Case Study in the Redesign of a Fundamentals of Fluids Course
Y1  - 2009/09/25/
N2  - Over the past two years, substantial research and implementation efforts have occurred to support the mobilization of the laboratory experiences in the Fundamental of Fluids course. No longer does the laboratory component of this course require substantial year-long floor space. The entire laboratory curriculum has been redesigned to use equipment designed and fabricate in-house. This equipment is able to be stored in a closet and easily setup and utilized in a just-in-time fashion. The curriculum has been modified and improved based off of research in engineering education and student feedback. This thesis describes the method of applying a product development approach to instructional design. It also contains the curriculum, assessment methods, and results of implementing the curriculum.
