projectthan the teams in the freshman course, indicating the need of a transition to engage students indesign decision making.Project based learning (PBL), which strongly motivates students, is a well-known pedagogicalapproach.6 In PBL, open-ended problems are provided in courses. As there are multiple feasiblesolutions, students need to evaluate each option, make decisions, and deliver a solution. Thisprocess guides students to use their analytical skills to solve real problems. Previous endeavorsinclude incorporating an open-ended project (delivering a prototype at the end of the semester),into a junior level course to prepare students for the capstone project.7 The outcomes showed thatstudents appreciated this experience with positive feedback

Both projects, marshmallow and pumpkin launchers, were a form of frontloading interms of doing a prototype model and then going to full-scale.The concept of teamwork was frontloaded by having students experience the design process withthe marshmallow launcher (first project) in a small team of three before receiving a formal lectureon teamwork. After a formal lecture and activity, the students were put into a much larger team ofsix for the pumpkin

Theprogram is designed to be extremely flexible; it permits the student to select a combination ofcourses relevant to individual career goals in technology or to provide the foundation for furtheradvanced study. The multidisciplinary curriculum includes core courses and electives in suchareas as rapid prototyping, programmable devices and systems, modern energy conversiontechnologies, lean manufacturing principles, project management, to name a few. The program iscurrently available entirely online and several of the courses employ web-based laboratoryexercises

EET ProgramsAbstractFor many years, faculty and administrators of electrical/electronic engineering technology(EET) degree programs have voiced a need for a comprehensive, nationally-normed exam,available to all EET graduates, that would provide a valid assessment of the cumulative skills ofstudents completing their programs. ABET's adoption of outcomes-based accreditation criteria,which emphasize assessment and continuous program improvement based on objectivemeasurements, heightened the importance of such a exam. As a result, the Electrical andComputer Engineering Technology Department Heads Association (ECETDHA) undertook aproject beginning in 2007 to develop just such a test. Several key accomplishments werenecessary for this project to

Computer Tomography, Microwave Radars and Ultrasonic Waves are non-optical methods thatare very common in measurement and inspection. Computer tomography is useful to examine internal cavities thatcannot be seen from outside, on the other hand, accuracy with these systems is dependable on material densities thatmay be a problem for different types of materials.
