, the inherent research mission of the University cultivatesmany assets which offer value to quite a range of customers. The task of transferring theintellectual and technological products to these customers is far from simple, and in many casesmay require the University to adapt to the culture of the end-user or users. Nowhere is this ideamore applicable than in the high-level education of people, where the product is actually humandevelopment. If this endeavor is undertaken in a more constrained context than is typicallyexpected in a graduate program, for instance, then the University should understand how to tailorthe curriculum to meet the unique objectives of the context. The engineering workplace is undergoing rapid change which

Faculty proposed large-scalerenovations of a specific undergraduate course or closely-related group of courses, with the goalof improving student engagement, learning outcomes, and faculty teaching experiences.Alternatively, faculty could propose to develop teaching technologies that would facilitate theimplementation of evidence-based teaching practices. Priority in funding was given to projectsthat would impact large numbers of students or provide critical interventions early in students’learning careers.“Live deep, not fast,” is an admonition coined in the early 1900’s by literature professor, critic,and editor Henry Seidel Canby 1.

Fields, especially in the sciencesand engineering, are growing and maturing fed by improved tools for communication andresearch. The ever changing landscape of technology within and outside of the classroom and itsimpact on student culture makes the challenge of discovery a dynamic one. However, discoveryalone may not be the greatest challenge. Finding an effective new pedagogy with a proven recordof advances in student efficacy and efficiency while challenging may be easier than establishingwidespread adoption of such methods in academia.The resistance to a change in pedagogy is both institutional and

All agree, though, that novirtual experience can fully replace hands-on learning: it must be retained. We also recognize thevalue of occasional face-to-face interaction for effective problem solving and clarification ofmisunderstandings on the material, etc. The key idea is that we can retain these clearly desirableelements as per a traditional class while at the same time leveraging the resources offered by thetechnology to ease the burden on the student without sacrificing quality.Since we are still new to the technology that enables the VSC, there will likely be otherunforeseen applications that will benefit engineering education.
