and experimentation: Unfortunately, the advent of the computer and itsimpact on teaching engineering has made it easy to produce computer-based models at theexpense of physical models. This fact is behind a general trend of teaching applied engineeringsubjects with minimal students’ involvement with physical set-ups including laboratoryexperiments. Carrying out laboratory experiments and generating experimental data, visiting aproject site, and using pencil and paper to produce a schematic, are gradually fading away. Thesetraditional tools were instrumental in developing an engineering common sense. It is argued herethat generating data from physical models is potentially a great learning tool, particularly whenthe model is built by the

, service initiatives, and teaching various courses, leave many facultywith little time to develop teaching effectiveness.Classroom management is a critical concern in academia. Unfortunately, most universityfaculty have not had any formal training on classroom management. Consequently, manyare left on their own to figure out how to competently teach and manage their students’behavior and performance1. Often, faculty resort to trial and error experimentation, withsome imitating the techniques used by experienced colleagues or former instructors.Fortunately, successful classroom management skills can be learned and developed. Theauthor’s experience as a teacher and industrial supervisory-leadership trainer helped himto recognize that many leadership
