Some institutions haveadopted a fully online instructional approach, while others provide a blended learning type, usingsupportive systems and implementing tools such as Moodle, Blackboard, Atutor, and CanvasLMS,among others. Effective online class is important for achieving institutional goals of both teachingand learning in higher education. Previous research on e-learning was mainly conducted with anin-depth focus on certain e-learning dimensions such as technology, faculty, support, pedagogy,readiness, management, ethics, evaluation, planning, and institution [3].

The various hands-on labswere designed to develop essential technical skills which could apply to the real world motioncontrol applications. The major skills students can develop through the newly developedadvanced PLC course are scaling of analog I/O signals along with the selection of right sensors,creation and use of I/O data tables, and use of advanced PLC instructions, etc. The studentsadditionally acquire team work ethics, time management skills to complete projects andorganizational skills.

EET have taken different approaches in the planning, organizing and exectuion of theirrespective capstone projects. The primary areas of contrast are: 1) project sourcing, 2) type, 3)interim feedback and evaluation, 4) final assessment, and 5) supplemental resources. Theapproaches used in each area have advantages and disadvantages that necessitate trade-offs andcareful management.It is anticipated that capstones will continue to evolve with the most likely areas of improvementbeing: 1) better preparation embedded into the curriculum prior to the capstone, 2) increased useof external judging panels, 3) integration of additional project management techniques, 4) greaterfocus on societal and ethical responsibilities, 5) use of web-based

In an attempt to gain a methodicalunderstanding of these factors, Kahn 8 developed a framework for Web-based learning,consisting of eight dimensions: (1) pedagogical, (2) technological, (3) interface design, (4)evaluation, (5) management, (6) resource support, (7) ethical, and (8) institutional. Kahn 14 lateroffered a framework for placing Web-based instruction along a band ranging from “micro” to“macro” uses. The “micro” end of the band involves the use of the Web as a way to supplementor enhance conventional classroom instruction (e.g., providing students in a electronic coursewith an interactive map of the electronic circuit to help them learn device functions).

The museum haslimited funds for acquisitions, and it certainly wants to authenticate items’ origins and values.Acquisition and disposal policies need to be part of the overall system planning.

A presentation of the long distance student was a memorableexperience for the class students, as she was assigned to present about her constructionjob experience, professional ethics, and her suggestions for their job search. That was avery attractive session for the in campus students, as the communication was possiblesuch that she could see the class students with the front camera, and they could see herface and her presentation on the screen.
