One of the major differences between the Sorby and Baartmans7and Devon et al.8 research projects was that one was conducted at a technical universitywhere the choice of majors is somewhat limited and the other was conducted at a stateuniversity.It should be noted that poorly developed spatial ability is only one cause of retention andachievement difficulties in engineering disciplines. Other factors such as peer support,student mentoring, exposure to skills in a non-threatening environment, and committedprofessors play a significant role. However, spatial

If Asian Indiansdo not seek top-decision making positions, it results into a limited pool of qualified candidatesfrom which managers can choose from.Several scholars 1,2,4,7,9,10,12 have identified work-related issues on which modern American andtraditional Asian cultures differ.

tend to be disinclined towardthe concerns of ethics. That does not mean that engineers are unethical. Rather they tend to getcaught up in the exigencies of a given engineering project and have little time to spend on theruminations of ethics. Leave that for the supervisors and managers to worry about. Mycontention is that if engineering ethics were presented in a mathematical framework it might Page 11.1288.2have more appeal to the typical engineer. 1The aim of engineering ethics is to indicate to engineers how they ought to be, what they oughtto do, and what they ought to make, in order to bring

In fact, in academic year 2011-2012 of the 152,000 math teachers and 132,000science teachers in the United States, only 600 and 400 respectively were American Indian,compared to 81,500 and 84,500 respectively for their Anglo peers [8]. This disparity often leavesNative Nations in need of qualified teachers, especially in math and science.

Because the disciplines are dynamic they are concerned as much with “what will be” as with “what was” [14]. That this is so, is illustrated by the great curriculum projects that were undertaken in the sixties and seventies because in the U.S. teachers did not have the resources to undertake such developments which normally be considered to be part of the role of the teacher functioning in this ideology [15]. The scholar academic ideology is teacher centred. Information is conveyed to the mind which reasons about it, as required. Learning is the result of teaching [16]. Because each
