These success stories are leading the venture in the direction of focusing more on the actualinnovation space. Below we highlight the work that came out of Tanzania in order to describeour next steps as a venture.

standardtextbook isn‟t employed.I. IntroductionIn many of today‟s classrooms, the textbook sets the stage. Accordingly, textbooks guideinstructional planning and classroom activities “by making content available, organizing it, andsetting out learning tasks in a form designed to be appealing to students.” 1 Whether or not to usea textbook in a college level class is a decision that may or not fall to the individual instructor.Some courses, particularly those that are required of all undergraduates in a major, often use a“standard” text selected by the department. Other courses may allow for more flexibility and aprofessor can decide whether or not to require a textbook as well as select the textbook.Researchers have advocated a variety of approaches

students’ attention, but also promote critical thinking, content knowledge andproblem-solving skills. Essentially, this calls for the application of active learning strategies.The importance of problem solving skills for future engineers and technologists can hardly beoverstated. Solving open-ended problems is arguably the corner stone of the engineeringendeavor. Employers look for engineers who are effective at solving open problems.3 However,the topic of teaching problem solving is difficult to define because of its multifacetedcharacteristics. Therefore, it is important that all aspects of this topic should be understood andconsidered before a plan for implementation is designed. The first element that needs to be takeninto consideration is the

Thus, thedimensions of interdisciplinarity we identified, although consistent with the literature, may notfully describe the construct of interdisciplinary competence or how it is manifested inengineering education contexts. In future studies now in the planning stages, we hope to directlyassess interdisciplinary competence in engineering students; these assessments could provide thebasis for a test of the construct validity of the survey-based measure we have developed to date.The analyses we are able to conduct with our data, however, provide considerable evidence ofconcurrent validity, which assesses the ability of an operationalization to

notwithstanding, the evidence suggests a fairly continuous evolutiontoward more complex and ubiquitous technology. But evolution toward what? How much of astep is it from IBM’s Watson,31 to the HAL of 2001,40 to The Matrix?79 How far are we fromtechnology as servant to technology as master? Who or what is in charge here, and should wecare? Unless we are to become the proverbial frog in a frying pan, we (engineers and everyoneelse) must be prepared to think proactively about these questions. Proactive thinking does notmean trying to stop technology, but rather trying to understand and plan for where it is heading.The intent of this course is to lay the groundwork for this kind of thinking.3.

Educating Engineering Students to Succeed in a Global WorkplaceAbstractCurrent and future graduates from engineering and technology programs will need certain skillsin order to work effectively in a global environment. Most engineers, at some point in theircareers, will work with colleagues in foreign countries, either as co-workers, customers, orsuppliers. Study-abroad programs are a powerful tool for training students in cross-culturalcommunication. While many study-abroad programs exist, few engineering students participate,largely because these programs are disruptive to a student’s plan of study. This paper reviews thedevelopment of a study-abroad program specifically for engineering and technology students.The

So, say their modelfocused on mean to rank the shipping companies; then they might be creating new data sets withmeans that are different and ignoring other data characteristics. This can only be verified bylooking at the teams’ Draft 2 models and the responses to this assignment in combination. This isbeyond the scope of this paper, but is a planned next step.It is encouraging that a few students kept the context of the problem in mind when developingtheir data sets. Students had individually explored some JIT manufacturing concepts during acontext setting step in the MEA sequence.

The difference is that the machine shownin Figure 4 uses a 3-input OR gate while the example circuit and the alternative machines useonly 2-input OR gates. This added complication of the 3-input OR gate is harder for somestudents than others to comprehend; hence the large variation in completion time.Assessment and DiscussionThe State Machine Module was developed for courses that cover digital logic, which is taught byseveral different instructors.

At this point in our ABET assessmentprocess aligned with outcomes a-k, we have simply employed this new cross-course alignment and score normalization with a-koutcome alignment. As a consequence, we now have direct assessment of each ABET outcome rather than simply a measurement ofstudents’ perception of whether they have been exposed to each outcome. We have yet to assess whether our process is working fromthe standpoint of faculty who teach the computer sciences courses. Accordingly, we plan to convene focus groups with faculty in thecoming semesters to determine if the new system is effective as a means of offering continuous improvement to faculty courses
