Session 2420Writing Simulation Programs as a Tool for Understanding Internal Computer Processes Michael D. Filsinger University of CincinnatiAbstractThe usual approach to a hands-on understanding of process scheduling in a computer operatingsystem is to either modify an existing operating system or use a pre-written simulation program.In an Engineering Technology program, the first approach can be too difficult for the level ofprogramming expertise possessed by the students, while the second approach does not giveenough of a hands-on feel

On average the class has 25 students.We start the class with a discussion of the short article What Art Unveils by Alva Noë whichusually allows us to find aspects we agree on so that we have a common understanding of art inthe course. ‘Artists make stuff’ – we were able to agree on that. Noë’s hypothesis is “that artistsmake stuff not because the stuff they make is special in itself, but because making stuff is specialfor us. Making activities — technology, for short — constitute us as a species. Artists make stuffbecause in doing so they reveal something deep and important about our nature, indeed, … aboutour biological nature [4].” He continues the article that ‘art makes things strange’: take a groupof engineering

OverviewMost engineering students see industry or research career paths as binary. In their minds, aperson can either focus on research (academic career) or design and management (industrial orprofessional career). This perception has a negative impact on the profession as it leads to missedopportunities to solve practical problems by applying new fundamental research, as well asbasing fundamental research on current engineering problems.Smart Structures Technologies (SST) is receiving considerable attention as the demands for highperformance in structural systems increase. Although both the academic and professionalengineering worlds are seeking ways to utilize SST, there is a significant gap betweenengineering science and engineering practice. To

The engineering education community is not immune to this debate (see [7], [11], and [18] to mention afew). Specitlcally in engineering, many changes are affecting the future of pedagogy as we know it. Such topicsas distance learning, exporting engirtcering education [12], and softening enrollments [14] have made for a veryuncertain and fluid enviromnent for engineering educators. Notwithstanding all these charges in technology, environmen~ and demographics, one point still holdstrue: there are students and there are teachers.l Thus, the
