organizationalflexibility and a flattening of the organizational structure. The cornerstones, research and teaching, of the faculty culture are dominated byindividuals, not teams. The nature of higher education is to place emphasis on theaccomplishments of the isolated individual rather than on team efforts. The emergence of teamsin the academy will cause an increase in the administrative responsibility of faculty, aredistribution in the power and authority of faculty members and a reprioritization of work loadand philosophy about teams. Engineering faculty members are often uncomfortable with the collaborative nature ofteamwork.

Digital circuit design, requiring no prerequisites orcomplicated math, is an excellent vehicle to accomplish that mission. By involving the studentsin hands-on activities that paralleled topics presented, students started to develop anunderstanding of the underlying principles behind digital circuits. Students left campempowered to face today’s world of technology with confidence rather than with intimidation.References1. Carroll, C. R
