Renaissance man was a master of many talents—business, culture,art, music; even tactics and self defense. The resulting sum of all these talentswas far greater than the individual parts.In industry today, we are seeing a similar fusion among the engineeringdisciplines. For example, the power-supply designer is learning embeddedmicrocontroller design; the mechanical engineer is learning control theory; andthe embedded-design engineer is learning about Radio Frequency (RF) design.This fusion is pushing engineers to become “Jacks of All Trades,” with designexperience in numerous disciplines beyond their core expertise.This means that today’s educators need to develop curriculum that exposesstudents to a variety of disciplines and helps them to develop a

self- and peer assessment multiple times in asemester in large classes can be a challenging task. In this presentation, we demonstrate a web-based application, called Peer Evaluation and Assessment Resource (PEAR), to assist assessingstudents’ development in teamwork skills through self- and peer evaluations. One of thechallenges of peer evaluation is the labor intensive nature of data collection and analysis. PEARintends to facilitate the process of data collection and analysis in peer evaluations. In addition,PEAR has been developed based on the Model of Domain Learning (MDL) which explains howstudents master a subject matter through the complex interactions among their knowledge,interest levels, and strategic processing abilities.

One could argue that the engineering undergradhas a greater chance of finding work with a strictly local focus than the masters ordoctoral-level engineer. The grad-level degrees will be far more likely to lead toresearch and development positions, which, in today’s world, are understood totake place in the global arena.The National Science Foundation has spoken clearly on this matter, especiallythrough its Office of International Science and Engineering (OISE).

Distance learning has been greatly enhanced through the use of the Internet. In Arizona, ajoint effort has been made by the three state universities to offer a Master of EngineeringDegree primarily through Internet and video distance learning. However, engineering coursesoften use hands-on laboratory projects with actual physical systems as an integral part of thecurriculum and learning process. It is difficult to include these labs in web-based instructionunless one uses simulations or virtual experiments.
