Teams not only documented their work, they also learned theimportance of the documentation because they had to rely on the materials left by precedingteams. They witnessed the successes of preceding teams, and had to remedy the occasionalerrors made by them as well. The UAV will make its demonstration flight in 2007.Bibliography1.

At Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, the College ofEngineering has adopted an “Introduction to Engineering Course” that is required of all freshmenmajoring in engineering. The course is described as a “lecture-laboratory course” that “allows Page 13.614.2students to work with hands-on projects that will teach the usefulness of mathematics and basicengineering concepts.” Another goal is to have students “better understand how fundamentalprinciples of science and engineering are useful in the profession.” An additional dimension ofthe work at SIU-C is to have students perform basic math computations with data

Math and Science fundamentals are critical hiringrequirements for today’s technicians; these fundamental skills will be integratedthroughout the curriculum. This may be considered to be an example of “Just-in-time”education.The majority of the online laboratories and course development is expected to take placein 2008 and 2009. Pilot testing will begin in Fall 2008 and conclude at the end of theproject in 2010.ConclusionsAs electronics systems technology develops, its impact is felt throughout all segments ofthe business and service economy.

noted at that time that the desired learning outcomes were betteraddressed when the students from the various programs worked together. Another course thatwas melded into the capstone course was a production laboratory course. In this course thestudents learned about production methods and had to design a product that they then producedin large quantities. This production class put the students together in a teamwork environmentbut the course was mainly directed towards the manufacturing majors. The capstone, as it existstoday, was created by merging these two courses into a common course for all of theEngineering and Technology majors, and then marrying it to the senior project course for thosestudents majoring in Visual Communication Design
