, Determination, and striving for Excellence, in thisendeavor. This represents the art of building character in the minds of the young students.Non-pedagogical as it may be, that is exactly what we did in 2010 in a pilot project and found itvery rewarding. That is what we continued to do since then making this program a success. Thispaper describes the steps in this systematic approach to implement RE.What is reverse engineering?Experience is the teacher of all things. [2] RE is an invaluable learning experience and ateaching tool. It is “a scientific method of taking something apart in order to figure out how itworks.” [3] The technique does involve “an act that would otherwise be considered a copyrightviolation.” [3] Whereas, “copyright law has allowed
