Students correctlysolved many basic problems such as converting a 2’s complement binary number to decimal,completing combinatorial timing diagrams, and converting a logic diagram to a Booleanexpression. Most students could accurately describe the functionality and use of basic logicgates, medium-scale integration (MSI) components, and flip-flops, although almost uniformlystudents could recall only D- and T-type flip-flops. Furthermore, most students correctly solvedproblems based on simple algebraic identities, basic MSI designs, and designs using two-inputlogic gates.Nevertheless, we identified the following student misconceptions:Karnaugh Maps: Because Karnaugh maps are a major topic in both ECE 290 and CS 231, wewere surprised to find

Organization of American States(OAS)’s ‘Engineering for the Americas’ conference in Lima Peru (Nov. 29 – Dec. 3, 2005) [2].Friedman, a New York Times journalist, asserts that the world is flat because of political changesand information technologies which have leveled the playing field and allow individuals fromany country to compete equally in the global market. The message conveyed at the Limaconference was that in order to compete globally Latin America must produce more engineers,and those engineers must be well trained – like India, which, for Friedman, is the prime exampleof how the world is now flat.Of course, the world is not flat for everyone, as evidenced by the digital divide. While the digitaldivide is a relatively new concept, it is based

during the comment period that questioned “theviability of single-sex programs such as an educational science program targeted at youngwomen and designed to encourage their interest in a profession in which they areunderrepresented,” these agencies did agree that “[s]uch courses may, under appropriatecircumstances, be permissible as part of a remedial or affirmative action program.”24Unfortunately, these agencies did not provide an explanation of what such “appropriatecircumstances” might be. Nevertheless, an educational institution that can clearly articulate asound rationale for offering an engineering outreach program for only young women can proceedwith some confidence that such a program likely will survive scrutiny under Title IX.Separate

extends back to the 1930’s when the school was a junior college. The University wasknown as The University of Tennessee Junior College, and the engineering program consisted ofthe first two years towards a baccalaureate degree in the student’s chosen field of engineering.The University became a four-year college in 1951. Most degree programs were transformed intofull four-year baccalaureate programs at that time. The engineering program remained a two-year transfer program with most students transferring to the University of Tennessee atKnoxville.In the fall of 1967, a formal proposal was developed by the UT Martin Department ofEngineering and submitted to the College of Engineering at Knoxville for an engineering degreewith majors from one of
