Web toenhance students' learning has been recognized, and to this end a pilot web-based system hasbeen developed as an online interactive resource for the teaching and learning of anundergraduate module on Communications within the Department of Electrical Engineering andElectronics. Rüschoff and Ritter[28] discussed the current state of the art with regard to the use ofnew technologies in the classrooms. Lu and Bol[20] found that peer review has becomecommonplace in composition courses and is increasingly employed in the context oftelecommunication technology. The results of their research from both semesters showed thatstudents participating in anonymous e-peer review performed better on the writing performance taskand provided more

the fourth portion of this course, students are formed into groups and are asked todevelop their own green designed system or a designed city. Students are taken through theprocess of ideation all the way to prototype or mock up design. They must defend their choicesof green technologies or green alternatives and demonstrate that either their designed system is abetter option or that their designed city is sustainable.Within the Ethics and Ethical Consumerism portion of the course, students realize that all ethicaland green options may not be obvious or simple solutions. Students are placed in the shoes of aCompany, a Sustainability Engineer, and a consumer through role playing, so that they grasp thedriving motivations of each. Students

Management System The ABET Engineering Criteria (and by association, the Engineering Technology,Applied Science and Computing Criteria) [2, 3, 4, and 5] define an educational qualitymanagement system (QMS). According to ISO 9000:2008, a QMS is “coordinated activities todirect and control an organization to achieve quality objectives,” where quality is defined as “thedegree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfills a need or expectation.”[7] The QMSdescribed in ISO 9001:2008 and 2015[7, 8] is based on six quality principles: customer focus,leadership, engagement of people, process approach, improvement, evidence-based decision-making and relationship management. ISO 9000:2005 provides a model for a process-basedQMS that depicts the
