-MAE 277 Course Project Overview:
+;MAE 277 Course Project Overview:For this semester’s project, our group dissected the Home lite water pump and it was a process. At first the hardest thing was getting started but after the initiation things really started to flow for the group. There were definitely some kinks to work out, like distribution of work, being effective in communication, and also using time in an effective manner. That was most important thing during the whole project, and if we failed at that, then that just meant more effort from everyone to pick up the pace to meet deadlines. The dissection of the pump, by itself, was very interesting. We took a bit of time to take it apart and took a whole bunch of pictures. It was difficult to know what to emphasize on, and being certain we did not miss anything that we would regret later.  So we started with documenting every little thing, which is the reason why it took as much time as it did. But from gate 1 to gate 5, we grew as a group and became more responsible and realistic to the work that needed to be done. We began discussing the start and distribution of work the same day the assignments were given; doing more things along that line to ensure an effective production of work and effort without sacrificing other commitments that our group had since all of us had a pretty intense semester. The evaluation of the components ran pretty smooth being that around that gate, we had the hang of everything and everyone knew what was expected to do. It just became a matter of setting deadline inside the group to meet deadlines for assignments. We as a grouped learned quite a lot about the function of the water pump and how it may have been manufactured, so this was definitely a productive experience. Not to mention all the fun we had together as we grew accustomed to one another.

 MAE 277 Course Project Overview:
 <blockquote>
-''This group project strives to give students a broader perspective on engineering decisions, providing context for the skills taught in the class. Additionally, it exposes students to basic project and group management tasks. The project affords students an opportunity to demonstrate a mastery of their skills in critical thinking, information synthesis, engineering analysis, technical communication, and other categories.''
