programs for engineering continue to grow in popularity among schools anduniversities, the corresponding curriculum that gets delivered to students has becomeincreasingly compartmentalized to each specific discipline. This shift has occurred naturally aseducational departments desire to highlight direct applicability of their education to theirdepartment label. However, much of the knowledge and many of the skills obtained in individualfields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) can be applied to variousother STEM fields. Yet, preconceived barriers between each discipline often create mental gapsin the minds of students that render their abilities to think of their education’s applicabilityoutside of the department they are

. Second, theweekly assignments were to be, as much as possible, placed in the context of technology appliedto the improvement of society, to current events, or to technologies with which the students werevery familiar.The importance of computing and of the class to engineers and their education was emphasizedduring the first week of class, as it always had been. But, as part of the intervention, this contextsetting was carried forward throughout the term. Specifically, all graduate student instructors Page 11.1450.5were asked to emphasize and repeat this importance throughout the term. Further, roughly once aweek, 5 to 10 minutes of lecture

The mechatronics engineering major is built on the samerigorous background as the ABET accredited engineering majors, and includes upper-level coursesin solid mechanics, kinematics and robotics, electronics, control systems, and microcontrollers.This program is intended to prepare students for the in-depth design and analysis of mechatronicsystems, which differs from similarly titled programs (Mechatronics Engineering Technology

The post-WWII and Sputnikeras saw a massive influx of federal support for research in higher education, increased hiring ofresearch-oriented faculty members, and curriculum revisions that reflected faculty members'interests. By 2000, engineering education looked more like that in a traditional science than in aprofession.3 Government, business, and professional societies pressed for engineering educationreforms in order to sustain America's technological and economic leadership. Consistent with Finkelstein et al.,1 one explanation for the failure of engineeringprograms to provide graduates with important professional skills is that most engineeringstudents are taught by

The peer review conducted at the end of the termsuggested changes that will be applied to class offered next term. However, the results from apeer review administered after the second survey could be implemented in the same term and tothe same group of students. Peer review combined with the results of short term class surveys isespecially valuable because the reviewers have the data from previous surveys on which to basetheir discussions with the students.Bibliography:[1] Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, 2001-02 Engineering Criteria: Criteria for AccreditingEngineering Programs, Engineering Accreditation Commission

Periodic assessment of company reports and individual journalsencourage the student to improve themselves.IntroductionThere are two issues concerning assessment that engineering educators should address: 1)usingassessment as a process to improve Engineering Technology (ET) programs, and 2)developingtechnical assessment skills in students. The first issue is current and relevant to TAC-ABETprogram criteria. The second issue is less visible, but student assessment skills can also berelated to TAC-ABET as well as industry criteria.Assessment can be applied to both processes and products. Education, for example, is a process.As educators, one of our jobs is to assure and improve the quality of that process. As engineers,we have tools to do

original thermal behavior. On a more abstractlevel are difficulties regarding an effective approach to the concepts that would be meaningful tomechanical engineering technology students in an associate’s degree program.A system called the Thermal Computing System (TCS) was designed and installed in a desktopcomputer to provide a simple, very low cost solution to the first difficulty. It allows students toobserve, test, and record in real-time the thermal behavior and effects of individual componentsand parameters of the same desktop computer in which it is installed. However, the question ofhow to effectively use this TCS/computer to teach potentially complex heat transfer concepts tosophomore engineering technology students remains.This paper
