Michael is responsible for leading a team conducting research projects to improve the learning experience for engineers and technicians. His research encompasses, Complex Adaptive Systems, Learning Curves, Learning Sciences and Engineering Education Research focusing on understanding the interplay between knowledge spillovers, innovation, wealth creation, and economies of scale as they are manifested in questions of growth
contests, design courses, and internships.Approaches to such activities vary within and among nations. In this work, we compare theapproach to practical training of electronics engineers at Southeast University (SEU) in Nanjing,Jiangsu Province, China to that at the University of San Diego (USD) in San Diego, California,U.S.A. This work is the result of an international cooperation between faculty members at theseinstitutions. Both institutions are committed to helping students develop critical hands-on skills.Laboratories play an important role in the required curriculum for both institutions. However,the logistics of these laboratories vary. For example, at USD, the laboratories are integrated intoindividual courses while at SEU, there is a

Natarajan, Indian Institute of Technology R Natarajan received his B.E. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University Visvesvaraya Col- lege of Engineering (of the then Mysore University) in 1961. Subsequently he obtained the M.E. degree of the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore; and the M.A.Sc and Ph.D degrees from the University of Waterloo, Canada. He has worked as a National Research Council Fellow in Canada, and as a Humboldt Research Fellow in Germany. He served as The Director of the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras from 1995 to 2001, and as the Chairman of The All India Council for

impartation of quality knowledge and skills to the students,thereby lowering their overall development and employability. At times, the facultyalso lack in communication and pedagogical skills and industry academiccollaboration is also at nascent stage. Hence, the process of faculty developmentbecomes highly imperative. Improvements in instructional programs may involve subject integration, just-in-time instruction, writing across the curriculum, or any of a variety of other non-traditional approaches that have been found to improve learning. The quality of ateaching program is primarily related to the quality of the instruction that takes placein individual classrooms. For the new curricula and instructional methods to have thedesired impact, a
science curriculum, at both the undergraduate and graduate level, oftenincorporates hands-on laboratory experiences. This hands-on lab work provides students withconcept relevancy, integrated knowledge, and technical skill required in engineering jobs [1].Hands-on and project based curriculum are examples of inductive learning techniques whereinductive learning reverses the traditional method of deductive learning. In deductive learning,a theory is presented to students and examples are then given in illustrations, in-classexperiments or homework exercises. In inductive learning, the process begins with a set ofobjectives or a problem to be solved. Faculty guides students along the way and the studentsreach an understanding of concepts through
