Design proficiency is key to such evolutionary and revolutionaryadvancements.INDUSTRY CRISIS. The degree to which the nation’s current and future industry needs can besatisfied will depend on at least two factors: advances in technology and the availability ofhighly trained engineers. Government and industry leaders are concerned that the shortage oftalented scientists and engineers in the U.S. aerospace and defense complex is getting worse.Clearly, the U.S. aerospace industry is in a state of sustained pre- and post-9/11 crisis2

With such a powerful tool, students can enhance their problem solving skills andunderstand the concepts of mechanism design better along the way.The course of Advanced Computer-Aided Design offered at Central Michigan Universityemploys such a design tool called SDRC/I-DEAS. Although this software is sophisticated interms of capabilities, it is not difficult to learn due to its visual feedback at every step. This iscrucial for students in engineering technology who learn best when they can see things and workwith them. The capability of animation provided by the software stimulates great interests fromstudents. This article discusses how the animation is used to help students

Ropohl gives a name to the integrated perspective. He uses theterm “metatechnology” to describe this perspective and defines it as “the attempt to understandthe complexity of the totality of technological practice.” (p. 286) It includes the humanities,philosophy, and the social sciences. He contrasts it with “specialized disciplinary studies inthose fields” in three senses: (1) “it begins with concrete technological phenomena;” (2) “itbrings in and makes use of nontechnical knowledge, but only as related to technological

In the EET (Electronics Engineering Technology) program, ourstudents work toward an AAS degree in 5 semesters. Teaching critical thinking as part ofthe course curriculum is a goal.Problem solving provides a key element in Engineering Training. To develop criticalthinking, students are assigned teams. The members of each team have only English as acommon language. Each team works on problems as a unit. Students learn to formulateword problems. They begin by drawing a picture of each problem and then discussingthe objective of the problem.Because the teams function as

During a lecture, students take class notesand ask questions. Such a pattern obviously has some problems. For instance, the one-hourlecture may be too short to solve student’s problems or to answer student’s questions. Theavailability or accessibility of an instructor after lecture hours is one of important key issues inteaching of engineering courses. Today, with help of high technology of telecommunication, theteaching of engineering courses can be improved greatly with many ways.
