However, several elements of an assessmentmethodology can be employed that are helpful in measuring student learning according to presetbenchmarks, when student learning is demonstrated in such environments. Important assessmentelements include a sound understanding of the relevant competencies to be gained, theformulation of descriptive outcome statements, the setting of realistic benchmarks, and theimplementation of repeatable measurement techniques.

Yet, more than ever it is essential thatacademia match industry and the consumer in keeping up with the technology.One way to update and improve the technician-level electronics curriculum is to adopt a systems-oriented rather than a component/circuit analysis approach that most schools still use. Thanks tohigh density integrated circuits, fewer and fewer discrete component circuits are in use today yetmost two-year schools continue to teach the analysis and design of discrete component circuitsthat few technicians actually encounter today.

At that time, an analysis using a modified DACUM procedure was used toassess the gap between industry skills needed and existing curricula in engineeringtechnology. Each college then developed new or adapted courses and programs to reflectthe emerging industry needs. This careful integration of industry skills into new andadapted community college curricula resulted in an increase in students for those collegesand their engineering technology departments of over 350%.
