An Ability to Function Effectively on Teams (ABET Criteria e)A time tested principle in education stipulates that a student best learns by doing; developingteam skills is certainly no exception. During this course, students work in teams of 3-4 toresearch and prepare two short in-class presentations. Student teams research the industry intheir own respectively chosen fields – electrical, mechanical, civil engineering technology, andconstruction management. Relevant industry representatives may result from personalexperience or from exterior research and must be equal in number to the quantity of members onthe team – i.e., three members = three companies; four

Perhaps a more pragmaticreason for recognizing the importance of these students is that these individuals are expected toperform at minimally-acceptable levels expected of graduates in professional programs such asengineering and technology. Institutions have an obligation to produce graduates capable of notonly contributing to, but also coping in, professional environments in which they are expected towork after graduation.Most engineering and technology educators, like their colleagues in other disciplines, enter theteaching profession with an aim of advancing knowledge through teaching, research, and service.Faculty typically engage in the teaching-learning

ability to best a weak player in a computer game builds confidenceamong freshmen. Freshman retention increased to 55% for the Fall 2012 semester, 15% to 24% greater than prior years. One significantfactor in this increase is the implementation of these programs. However, other factors may have affected retention as well,though the impact is believed to be minor. Two known factors include transposition of the order of teaching for two chaptersin the circuits book and the normal year to year variation between groups of students. The chapter transposition is believed tohave had minimal impact, though we lack definitive data to confirm that conclusion. The year to year variation in retentionrates for prior fall semesters was in the range of 10

The efforts of the faculty to implement this suggestion have led to a pair of papers atthe 2009 ASEE conference. This paper discusses the creation of a course project for use in ajunior-level instrumentation course that guides students step-by-step through the productdevelopment process and the results achieved to date. The project involves the design andimplementation of a “smart-sensor” which is then integrated into a larger instrumentation andcontrol process.

However, the full potential that PE courses offered and their impact both on theET population and CETA itself was not being fully realized.Most students want to graduate in the shortest time possible, and faculty advisors generallysupport this goal so in practice, professional electives were typically undervalued andunderutilized. Recognizing this problem as well as the opportunity to implement a more flexiblecurricular structure, we developed an advising process where the main goals are not only GPAand time to graduation, but also to encourage broader educational outcomes for students topursue.

In addition, educators at differentinstitutions may be a source for successful continuous improvement activities [6]. Lastly, someprograms use exit exams as a tool to gather data.
