This could be extended to say thatknowledge becomes wisdom through learning. Learning can use a variety of methods as shown in the pyramidof learning (Figure 1) developed by E. J. Wood of National Training Laboratory, Bethel Maine Campus2. Thepyramid shows various methods of learning and corresponding knowledge retention rates for average students.Merely attending lectures is the least effective method. Self-reading and use of audiovisuals cause increasedretention. Demonstration, discussion, and practice take retention to the next level and teaching provides the bestretention.

This fact is behind a general trend of teaching applied engineeringsubjects with minimal students’ involvement with physical set-ups including laboratoryexperiments.

During the second week, each teacher was invited to bring two students toparticipate in a teaching laboratory, with the teachers teaching the modules in a highly supportedenvironment, surrounded by SENSE IT staff (see Figure 4). This opportunity to implement thematerials with students gave the teachers an opportunity to review the materials again and to seehow they worked with students. They found this a very effective approach, both in terms of theamount of additional time they were able to spend with the curriculum and in terms of howseeing their own students work through the modules increased their own confidence in theirability to teach the SENSE IT modules to entire classes.The

Page 23.1335.13Once again, it became apparent that some form of laboratory project or exercise would beappropriate for this course. However, not all of the students have the time, training, and skillsrequired to recreate ancient artifacts. In addition, it is extremely difficult to incorporate alaboratory project or exercise into a lecture only course. That is why it is so important tocontinue to discover and implement new and interesting ways to bring ancient artifacts into theclassroom. This has been accomplished with great success in the past and will likely
