In addition to the various technical subjectsrelating to safety, health, and environmental management, the author developed a law contentincluding law categories and associated court structures, law terminology and concepts forengineers, safety and health related law and acts, federal standards and regulations includingOSHA standards, environmental legislation and regulations, and ethics and liabilities. Toenhance the student learning experience various learning media are utilized. Relevant teachingtool arsenal encompass but not limited to filling in OSHA forms and logs

design and realization of such systems as contrasted with ethics and the broader question of professionalism. And professional design and realization would involve things like adherence to being aware of codes and applicable codes and standards and their application and so forth which is obviously coupled with ethics, but is a bit different."6Though there is little doubt that engineering faculty support the notion that all engineeringstudents should be competent in the scientific engineering fundamentals, they are seemingly lessrigorous in terms of integrating the use of laws and standards. Based on the ABET requirementsfor mechanical engineering curricula and Dr. Hodge’s clarification, it seems that laws andstandards

professor in charge usedPBL as the basis for defining common goals and guiding the students’ progress:1) From a project perspective≠ Identify the steps required to plan for and manage a project?≠ Identify resources and know-how required for success?≠ Identify the structure of the collaboration process?≠ Identify technologies (hardware and software) needed?2) From a teaching perspective≠ What knowledge should the student possess?≠ What skills will the project teach students?≠ What values and ethics are the most important?≠ How does the project prepare one for employment?BackgroundRapid Prototyping (RP) is a whole suite of technologies collectively referred to as “Additivefreeform fabrication” which includes Selective Laser Sintering

"newCarnegie report...reinforces those warnings." The report indicates "that a widespread emphasison theory over practice...discourages many potential students while leaving graduates with toolittle exposure to real-world problems and ethical dilemmas." While "millions of dollars" havebeen offered "through a coalition of universities to try to break up old styles of teaching," manyschools "still couldn't overcome the 'cultural issue of change' among faculty members." Therehave been some successes, however. Georgia Tech's biomedical engineering program uses a"problem-based approach" that "helps attract and teach many types of engineering students,especially women, who have been traditionally reluctant to consider engineering."Students too are voicing
