Session xxxx Electronic Conferencing for Faculty Continuing Development Russel C. Jones, Ph.D., P.E. World Expertise LLC and Bethany S. Oberst, Ph.D. James Madison UniversityAbstractMany engineering faculty members in developing and emerging countries find it nearlyimpossible to participate in continuing professional development through attendance atmajor international conferences in their areas of interest. One mechanism to address thisproblem is the addition of an electronic
LAN to the central control. Thelink between the I/O and the central computer is an H2 LAN. This second FF LAN, called H2, is a high-speed fieldbus communications mode,which serves as a backbone for the H1 segments. The H2 backbone can operate at 1, 2.5,or 100 Mbits/s. The H2 network speeds are useful for transferring data between the smartfield devices and other production hardware like programmable logic controllers (PLCs)and process analyzers. The H2 LAN permits access to the fieldbus structure from anycomputer on a plant intranet, and gives process engineers and production planners directaccess to process data and the ability to program the system from remote locations.Laboratory Software ImplementationThe process control laboratory
lateral surface area of the cone. In order to avoid thecurvatures, the area is restricted to a frustrum as shown in Figure 3. The frustrum can bedrawn over as much of the cone as possible while avoiding curvature in the lateral sides.This typically results in use of about 3/4 of the total cone height. Considering only thatportion of the total volumetric flow passing through the lateral surface area of thefrustrum, Dery (2) derived: Su = 2 u g ( r2 − r1 ) 1 − ( r22 + r12 ) (4) s 2R 2 where r1 and r2 = radii of the top and

Initially the R&D costsfor CAD/CAM systems were very high and requires high investment cost. It also requiredextensive training and sophisticated hardware and software that were not available for smallcompanies. By the end of the 1970’s and beginning of 1980’s many companies started to realize

, periodic/consequential reviews, triggered/consequential reviews, formative departmentalreviews and formative individual reviews. Let s briefly examine each of these.Annual reviews are typically summative in nature and are done, as the name implies, on an annualbasis. They are often done for the purposes of determining any pay raises for the coming year. Page 5.495.2Because they occur so frequently relative to the length of time required to fully evaluate facultydevelopment projects, they are of questionable value for any kind of formative evaluation. Inaddition, the evidence elements needed for a thorough evaluation are usually missing and as

It directly addresses the hardware/software co-design that is anintegral part of many modern electronic devices by employing a software team of ComputerScience majors and a hardware team of Electrical Engineering majors. In order to facilitatehardware/software co-design, the software team implemented a
equivalent education. In this paper it includes qualifications that correspond to atechnology degree in the United States (Higher National Certificates and Diplomas). All othercourses are defined as third level. The higher education level embraced a university sector(private) and a public sector funded primarily by Local Education Authorities (LEA‟s). It is withdevelopments in higher education in the public sector that this paper is concerned.At that time the education system in England and Wales was highly selective. A simplifiedmodel of the system is shown in exhibit 1. After primary school the student was directed to oneof three types of school. The majority of children went to secondary modern schools as therewere only a relatively small number

. In addition, the study canact as an excellent test bed for revealing any limitations or bugs that may exist in the software.That we will be checking for statistically significant differences in the change in pretest andposttest scores between the three groups for this particular educational intervention differentiatesthis study from those currently seen in the existing body of literature. We are attempting todifferentiate between traditional lecture material, the use of visualization software alone, and theuse of the visualization software with stereoscopic effect. We expect to publish the results of thisstudy as soon as they become available.References1. Kim, J., Park, S., Lee, H., Yuk, K., & Lee, H. (2001). Virtual Reality
