education and help the students to understand the concepts and applications ofthis type of energy. Due to the high costs of the training units, it becomes a budget concern topurchase training units for laboratory sections. Some of the pre-built training units already on themarket have a price range from ten thousand to fifty thousand dollars per unit. If there are budgetconcerns for the program, the only option that remains is to teach theory without the benefit ofhands-on training. Taking these issues into consideration, the students in the IndustrialTechnology program have designed, built, and tested a multi-purpose renewable energy trainingunit for the alternative energy related classes. This prototype trainer is designed to be used forhands-on

One of our laboratoryassignment plans is to educate our undergraduate students in the programming softwareLabVIEW.We feel that LabVIEW is becoming very popular in the engineering field and it is a good idea tohave our students exposed to it.We have developed a laboratory assignment which is a reduced form of our data acquisitionsystem.

Screen capture of MS PowerPoint presentations using MS Expression or CamStudio produced good results, but produces a single voice track that is difficult to edit. Encoding video capture files can take a long time for some file formats. Adding narration and animation to PowerPoint and converting them to Adobe Flash format requires the least amount of development time. Editing the slide stack is easier than editing the audio and video files produced by other means.

The Need and CapabilityNot all engineering and engineering/industrial technology departments will be able to offer avariety of renewable energy courses due to faculty, budget, laboratory, and knowledgelimitations. Unless a school decides to establish a renewable energy related program or degree, itbecomes difficult for faculty to teach renewable energy related classes in addition to the classesin core curriculum. Since tenure-track and tenured faculty are usually allowed to teach threeclasses a semester, it may become an issue to offer more classes if there
