engineering technology program was established in 1971 at Pittsburg StateUniversity in Pittsburg, KS. During the start-up of the program, an advisory council wasoriginated to counsel and advise the program. The program started with a group of 4-5representatives from different facets of industry and would meet twice a year or once peracademic semester. The selection of industry members was informal through Society of PlasticsEngineers (SPE) contacts and industrial contacts to begin with and members were appointed bythe administration, after the members had agreed to serve.This advisory council methodology is now used for all programs within our college oftechnology. The plastics advisory council has now grown to a group of approximately 20-30attendees
the obscure or vague atmosphere, not only from the economic point of view but also from the social life point of view to the domestic point of view. Under the existing conditions, we are eager to make an effort to find any solution for the next step. As for one of the biggest attempts at a realistic solution, IT (information technology), including electronic media applications, is being discussed as one of the key candidates.Proceedings of the 2012 Midwest Section Conference of the American Society for Engineering Education IT Basic Impacts on Educational and Social Environments Our educational environments prefetch our next social image in the future.

E-mail: Parce@tntech.eduIntroduction and MotivationThe modern learning approaches in engineering education require substantial training of studentswithin a team-based environment1,2,3. The success or failure of these student teams dependsheavily on the
the undergraduate curriculum of the Electrical and ComputerDepartment, the Engineering Technology Department and the Computer Science Department.Our proposal, “Deep Space Exploration using Smart Robotic Rovers”, was selected for fundingand we established our first interdisciplinary team of students and faculty to develop a smartrobotic rover.During the last two years, students and faculty participating in this program have developed arobotic rover that has successfully accomplished the initial goals of the project. The rover iscapable of climbing 30o inclines, rotating about its center axis, strafing, and maneuveringdiagonally while maintaining stability. It was also designed to protect the vital internalcomponents from outside contaminants

. The project relied upon the provision andmaintenance of an enterprise course management system (ANGEL, created by CyberLearningLabs) by the University’s Office of Information Technology Services. The benefits of such anendeavor was: increased student enrollment, and increased exposure of the environmental andenergy issues facing the engineering disciplines of the department (Mining, Petroleum & NaturalGas Engineering, Environmental System Engineering, and Geo-Environmental Engineering). Itwas also envisioned that with the technological advantage of a computer for every student thatthe class can be presented with greater student interaction with the material, and perhapsincreased opportunities to promote the thought process than an in
also discussed.I. IntroductionProblem solving techniques used in engineering and engineering technology courses typicallypresent the student with a problem for which a solution must be found by applying conceptslearned in class. This approach involves reading the problem, extracting “Given” and “Required”information, and developing a solution. This is the common way of learning new material. Inmany cases in industry, a problem solution has been developed, but the result is incorrect. Theproblem then becomes one of reviewing the erroneous solution and identifying and correcting theerrors. In some cases, the presence of errors is obvious due to an absurd result. In other cases, theerror is not apparent until the solution is studied and the
as such skills have shown to correlate to later success in an engineering career.However, research has shown that the current learning environment has not been conducive inlearning spatial skills, especially for women, gender minorities, and socioeconomicallydisadvantaged students. This phenomenon can contribute to the stubbornly consistent pattern oflow representation and participation of these minoritized students in engineering. Our projectstrives to address this practical gap by leveraging the technology of augmented reality/virtualreality (AR/VR) to create tools that can facilitate learning and development of spatial skillsamong these students. Specifically, we aim for such tools to help reduce cognitive load, providemore expansive
activities which provide opportunities for students to engage in experiments that willreinforce the material covered. The safety of the unit was confirmed after several tests indifferent conditions on campus.1. IntroductionWe live in an age of environmental awareness, and alternative energy education is present inmost of our daily conversations in engineering, technology, and science education. Renewableenergy today provides about 9% of the world’s energy and 8 to 10% of the U.S. needs [1].However, in many parts of the world these percentages are increasing significantly. Based oncurrent data on global warming, as well as the current U.S. dependence on overseas oil, there isan interest and urgency in utilizing alternative energy sources. In order to
