technology track, there are two tracks of educationavailable to students over the age of 18. These are: ‚ Higher education ‚ Vocational qualifications First degree and postgraduate studies are sometimes collectively called highereducation (HE) and are offered by universities and some FE institutions. It is important tomention here that in the UK there is no division like ‘Engineering’ and ‘EngineeringTechnology’ as they are in the US. All engineering programs are a mixture of both thetheory and practice. The typical first degree offered is the bachelor’s degree (typically three years).Many institutions now offer an undergraduate master’s degree as a first degree, typicallylasting for four years.

white spaces for notetaking. Instead, a new approach isneeded, in which images are copied into a word processor, then manipulated to transform user-hostile handouts into user-friendly handouts. Assessment of this approach includes student-generated improvement recommendations. Students photocopy their notes, then mark them withred pen to indicate recommended changes. This approach is not limited to fluid power, or even toengineering; it lends itself to any image-intensive topic, technical or otherwise.IntroductionOne reason students choose to enroll in Mechanical Engineering Technology rather than inMechanical Engineering is the hands-on, practical nature of an MET curriculum.

implemented different ways to address the topic. Some have incorporatedtechnical writing into other courses [4],[5], some have addressed the issue early on starting withfreshman classes [2],[6] while others have incorporated the engineering and communicationtogether [7]. Unlike the traditional engineering problems where the final numerical answer couldconfirm the validity of the solution, the outcome of a technical document cannot be evaluated aseasily, especially by the students.
