The junior courseemphasizes analytical engineering skills along with sophisticated project managementtechniques including subcontract management. Written and oral communication skillsand topics on professionalism and ethics are also addressed. Greater emphasis is placedon rigorous planning and scheduling, cost estimation and economics, and coordination ofefforts between: the Design II and III teams, the Design III students and the customer,and

However, teachers oftenlack the knowledge and experience for planning and delivering instruction that considersthe cultural specifics of tribal life and how they relate to education. Mathematics andscience, two of the most important content areas targeted by the ongoing educationalreform, are, at the same time, areas of lowest achievement of American Indian students.A culturally relevant professional development model

These changesaffected not only space planning, but also staffing requirements and service delivery methods,making it necessary to take a critical look at our existing libraries even when they are only eightyears old.

Students were given suggestions for the mid-term and finalpapers; these suggestions are listed in Table 2. Students were also encouraged to suggest otherideas for their papers, particularly with respect to their final paper. If students were able toidentify a topic for their final paper that overlapped with their primary major, they wereencouraged to explore that topic. For example, one student from education prepared as theirfinal paper a lesson plan for 4th-grade students on energy.

Most academic libraries with noise issues are also facing space and design challenges.One of the more common problems occurred as libraries shifted to function primarily as studyspaces, or were rebranded as “learning commons,” with open floor plans and fewer—ornonexistent—book stacks [8].

For example, an engineer might recognize that a particular architectural plan poses significant construction difficulties without having the expertise to devise improved construction or design alternatives.  Level 2 (Understanding) implies a thorough mental grasp and comprehension of a concept or topic. Understanding typically requires more than abstract knowledge. For example, an engineer with an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility should be able to identify and to
