Theseorganizations include student satellite groups at other universities, NASA centers, the Air ForceResearch Laboratory, and especially industry sponsors such as Lockheed Martin. Studentsinteract with industry professionals via teleconferences, technical email exchanges, and formaldesign reviews. These exchanges enable students to experience the real world and to buildprofessional contacts that enhance their career prospects. In addition, S3FL maintains a strongrelationship with SPRL, whose professional engineers are valuable mentors who participate asreviewers in design reviews, offer training sessions, and provide guidance with test setups,hardware design, and software coding.S3FL also has intramural relationships with

88 percent mentioned peers”11. Theevidence suggests, however, that teachers themselves may be a cause of academic under-preparedness and therefore of attrition and risk. For example, while 58 percent of studentsmentioned a teacher as a significant factor, the same students indicated that only 9 percent of allthe teachers they had ever encountered in the course of their school careers had made adifference in their lives. That is, 91 percent of their teachers left non-memorable imprints. These students indicated further that their classes were dull and boring and that schoolwas one of the least favorite places they wished to be. Moreover, their favorite places in schoolwere the cafeteria, the library, or the hallway12, thereby leading

With most of theirresearch experience occurring in a humanities or social sciences context, engineering students donot always understand research as something that “engineers do.” Old attitudes die hard, and itis still a challenge to convince students that information skills are not only useful, but critical totheir success. Rodrigues states, “Engineering students, in preparation for efficiently managinginformation during their careers, should be departing the university for industry with more thanjust an accumulation of textbooks and course notes to take with them.”16 Bracke and Critzsupport this, saying, “Science and engineering students need to master complex subject-specificresources that often

Effective teaching is defined in terms of Lowman’s two-dimensional model of intellectual excitement and interpersonal rapport5 and the ExCEEdTeaching Model6.
