computer languages that have been developed for use inautomating sequence of ‘computations’. Some older computer languages such as FORTRAN &BASIC (developed in 1950’s) have given understanding to the development of modern object-oriented languages such as Visual Basic, C++ and JAVA. Of course, these are not the onlyknown exhaustive set of computer languages. There are many other computer languages ofspecial purpose significance and are used in select scientific environment.In particular, the students today are taught some computer language programming constructs andthe associated program creation to help solve science and engineering problems, with some built-in graphical user interface convenience.

AC 2007-2782: A WEB-BASED PROGRAM IN INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGYDarnell Austin, California State University-Fresno Page 12.155.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2007 Developing a Distance Learning Program in Industrial TechnologyThe need for a distance learning program in Industrial Technology in California comes froma quirk in the state’s higher education system. This paper will look at this need, what it takesto set up such a program, including the transfer issues and discuss of the level of studentsacrifices necessary for their bachelor’s degree.Since the development of the Master Plan in the 1960’s, state supported higher education hasbeen within the reach of most
type. For example, if theaverage student score on the exam has been declining each time the exam is offered, then theprogram should recognize this trend and investigate the causes and remedies – closing the loop.Also, if the average scores are good or even rising over time – the definition of success - butspecific question(s) on a specific topic has been consistently poor, then once again the programshould recognize that this concept, which is part of the students desired skill set or it wouldn’t bein the exam, needs to be investigated. Therefore, a tool such as the senior competency exam hasa lot of potentially useful data which can be utilized for assessment but this information is oftenhard to gather and recognize within the large data set
initially the addition of the organized labor representative,Mr. Dave Fagan, was met with resistance. Many at the university were leery of allowing anofficer of an organized labor union into a position that advises a professional program.However, it was pointed out that as Financial Secretary, Mr. Fagan is the “Number 4” person in a23,000 member local (to put it into perspective, Local 150’s funded pension fund currentlystands in excess of $3.5 billion). As such, he would be the equivalent of a Senior Vice Presidentin a major corporation. As it turned out, his input was excellent. As an officer in a major tradeunion (with strong political ties), he had insight on state budget matters, which play a strong rolein the health of the local construction
