As manufacturing and distribution becomes increasingly global,incorporation of international perspectives will benefit all students, including those with theattitudes of the dominant North American culture. Because our Masters in ManufacturingEngineering Technology program includes students from around the world, and most students inthe program feel comfortable with each other and the faculty, this gives us an excellentopportunity to use our courses to study and share some of the different attitudes and perspectives.Our results presented here (based on limited and anecdotal data) highlight how the business,cultural, and ethical perspectives of

In addition, the University and faculty involved need to make a significantcommitment of time and energy.

vibration analysis courseBackgroundThe origins of mastery-based-learning (MBL) find a root in the idea that, with enough time, allstudents with the appropriate prerequisite understanding could master any new topic [1]. In atraditional grading scheme, all students progress through topics and the same rate. At the end ofa unit, an exam is used to assess student mastery. All students then move on to the next unitregardless of their performance on the previous exam.In a typical mastery-based approach, an individual student must demonstrate mastery of onetopic before progressing to the next topic [2, 3, 4, 5]. An MBL approach built upon a largenumber of tiered specific skills guarantees all students earning a particular grade in a course

who would report employing a degreed librarian.MethodologyThe survey was in two parts (see Appendix). One part was to be completed by a principal of thefirm. The other part was to be completed by the degreed librarian, if the firm had such a position.For the purposes of this study, the term “degreed librarian” refers to a person with a Masters inLibrary Science (MLS) or its equivalent. A "principal" is often an owner of the firm. Always they are in senior management positions andare in charge of projects. Since a principal would likely have more knowledge of the firm as awhole than a junior engineer, it was decided that a principal should complete a survey. Theminimum qualification for librarians in the United States is the MLS, although some

For the past 5 years, Brian has taught various levels of high school physics, mathematics, applied technology, and robotics. Brian joined Sparkfun Electronics to help integrate ”tinkering,” electronics, and computational thinking into the classroom. One of his goals is to help teachers to de-mystify how household consumer electronics work. With a few simple tools, classrooms can excite and encourage students to explore the possibilities of microcontrollers, electronics, and physical computing.
