Tasks Accomplished
Converted inventor file to V-Carve Set up tech isel Milled top initial prototype Determined changes to set up
Summary Mr. Widmar helped us covert our inventor file into a file type that was recognizable by the techno isel. We then set up our Styrofoam block in the TI to test how our design would be cut out. With the ball end mills available Mr. Widmar suggested we go back and adjust our fillet sizes .After milling the initial test piece we determined we would also need to make some adjustments to the speed of the machine. Mr. Widmar gave us some resources on where to locate mill speeds for various materials and mill sizes. All in all for a first trial we were happy with the results of the test mill. Adjustments will be made prior to next week’s test. If that goes well we would like to mill our final top half out of the plastic we have obtained.

Student Submissions
Hurdles to Student Achievement
3 out of 14 of my students use the time they are scheduled for the class to work on assignments.
Hurdles to Student Achievement
• Lack of time management skills• Lack of group communication• Different schedules • Lack of utilizing collaboration tools within
Blackboard
Intervention Strategies
• Email the students • Call Home• O-time/tutoring• Students report to my room during online
time
Instructor Workload
• 2 hours per week prepping the course– Lesson for following week posted by Friday
• 1-2 hours per week grading/reviewing• Monday morning-emails go out to those
missing work
What Students Say About ItCourse Evaluation
• Easy to navigate BlackBoard• 50/50 on open endedness• Most recognize time management as an issue• Average log in is 3 times per week• Text #1 method of partner communication
“During my scheduled class time I either sleep or eat. I do my work on Sunday nights.” Quote from Actual EDD student.
Suggestions
• Develop templates for all online courses• Training both prior to teaching and ongoing• Develop a plan for students who struggle• Set reasonable expectations for the first year• Always be one to two weeks ahead
