educational objectives for EC 2000.In EC 2000, technical communication is emphasized more than ever. It will not be enough for faculty topoint to English courses and claim that students have mastered communication in engineering contexts.Indeed, we will have to demonstrate that students have mastered higher level communication tasks suchas these: • Communicating technical information for decision-makers in corporate contexts • Explaining technically complex, emotionally charged information for public uses and citizens’ decisions • Communicating persuasively in competitive environments (such as bids, proposals) • Creating effective user interfaces for engineering products • Demonstrating competence in engineering design and

The program has a high demand from engineers who arecurrently working in the Chattanooga and surrounding areas. However, increasing workdemands, necessity for travel, and/or relocation and job changes prevalent in the businessenvironment make participation more and more difficult for individuals. Therefore, theEM program wants to offer an alternate and innovative learning environment for thoseindividuals who want to enroll in this program.I.

Engineeringeconomy educators should evaluate whether too much material is being covered too quickly intheir courses. The question that instructors should ask themselves is whether students caneffectively learn, apply and master the course material being planned.

Margaret Mount of the University of Dayton,in an etd list-serve e-mail message on August 6, 1997, stated that the number of institutionsoffering a Master's Degree in Engineering Technology has reached fourteen.

These are comparable to professors, associate professors, assistantprofessors, and instructors in the United States. College teachers are recruited mostly fromgraduates with little or no experience in post-graduate education. They start as teachingassistants and move up the ladder. Most of the college professors in China today started out thisway. In recent years, post-graduate education has become more popular.

The educational systemat the university level at present is not capable of developing students' motivation, competencesand skills concerning innovation and entrepreneurship. Instead, entrepreneurship educationrequires learning methods, pedagogical processes and framework for education, whichuniversities at the moment have not mastered.

Forthis reason, programs such as Elasticsearch Curator are used to control the number of indices thatare opened and searchable. As with any storage system, a need to expand will always arise. Toaccomplish this, Elasticsearch breaks apart the storage into the roles of master, backup master,data node, and balancer. The indices are then shared across multiple data nodes to provide amore fault tolerant platform. Additional nodes of all roles can be added or removed with ease,allowing for simple horizontal expansion and robust failover. With the ability to quickly expandand adapt to changing needs, the Elasticsearch storage provides great

the performance scores in an economics class [2]. Magalhães et al. [3] providea literature review of the benefits and pitfalls of online homework. They noted that others foundthat the ability for students to try again may encourage students to practice to achieve mastery [4]and that randomization of exercises is likely to reduce cheating [5]. One drawback of theirreported online homework is that it emphasizes the final answer rather than the process [6].Cooke and Al Faruque saw mixed results in implementing Mastering Engineering in a Strengthof Materials course [7]. O’Neill et al. [8] saw a slight improvement in using MasteringEngineering on students’ test scores. Overall online grading reduces the faculty workload andcould benefit the
