framework inherent in ISO 14000 is particularly relevant asthe relentless pressures of pollution, climate change, and depletion of finite resource becomemore apparent with each passing day. These problems will require geopolitical, sociological,technological, and engineering solutions. Therefore, there is a pressing need to pursue inclusionof ISO 14000 concepts into our courses. Ideas such as the development of environmentalmanagement systems, environmentally benign manufacturing, life cycle assessment, and producttake back should be included wherever appropriate. In this paper we will explore the educationalopportunities that naturally emerge when addressing underlying concepts that are implicit in ISO14000. Toward this end we will examine the

In fact,most of those reform initiatives were based on grand views about “blocks” of content or generalskills needed to future engineers, or even socio-economic needs of whole countries 18, rather thandetailed studies on how engineering students learn. In addition, the technological tools used in those reform initiatives (such as modeling anddesign software) are the same employed by professional engineers in their everyday practice andnot especially designed for learning. This might be due to the belief that “doing”, most of thetimes, leads to “learning”. For instance, most software tools used in engineering

Use of screen-capturing and other video capturing software is becoming the normin higher education for supplementing traditional lectures [3-5]. Engineering programs havebecome vanguards in this adoption; as engineering courses are both content-rich and move at afast pace, there is a place for supplemental material to better emphasize difficult concepts [6].
