Moreover HONER can be a useful tool and aid forstudents’ research projects or to engage the students in renewable energy related research andproject. In next section we are presenting some examples of how HOMER could be integrated aspart of the existing or planed renewable energy courses.

This article explores the experience of twofaculty members who each made the move after over fifteen years in industry, one who is nowearly in that transition and the second moving toward full retirement. These experiences are usedto outline not only ideas on best practices for being successful in the transition, but pitfalls andtraps to avoid.IntroductionThe motivation of this article is to explore the transition from industry to teaching from both aspecific and general viewpoint.

In essence, active learning requires doing meaningful learning activities in groups underthe guidance of an informed and experienced teacher. As stated by Christensen et al (1), “To teachis to engage students in learning.” The main point is that engaging students in learning isprincipally the responsibility of the teacher, who becomes less an imparter of knowledge andmore a designer and a facilitator of learning experiences and opportunities. In other words, thereal challenge in college teaching today is not covering the material for the students, but ratheruncovering the
