identified as containing non-conformity. The web-based modulewas written in Netbeans and utilizes the Glassfish application server. A MySQL databasemaintains the Mouse Factory information and student records. A major advantage of thisapproach is that Netbeans, Glassfish and MySQL are all open-source software packages.Figure 2.

often small6. There are many excellent textbooks, such as Montgomery,that provide explanations and practice problems. However the use of textbook and homeworkproblems stress the categories of knowledge, comprehension and application in Bloom’sTaxonomy7 of cognitive skills. But this mode of instruction is less likely to emphasize thehigher-order cognitive skills of analysis, synthesis and evaluation. In the laboratory teachingcontrol charts for variables, students must design a control chart that involves select the subgroupsize and the sampling interval. Students are able to implement their control charts and evaluatethe effectiveness of their control charts upon the number of good parts produced and the defectrate. These activities emphasize

, Senior Capstone: Production Laboratory, and Senior Project courses, along with theIndustrial Internship Program.This integration has occurred in various components of these courses. The textbook readings,lectures, and discussions were revised in order to emphasize the findings from the study. Inaddition homework assignments, case studies, and real world experiences derived from the studywere included as individual or group exercises.Homework assignments and case studies related to performance measurements were developedand implemented for the aforementioned senior courses. In each case, the students are to applytheir knowledge of performance monitoring techniques to the particular problem and analyzetheir effectiveness, suggest improvements, and
