Once approved, theanalysis becomes a basis for the system design, embodied in a second document. Again, the use ofthe CASE tool is encouraged, as appropriate. When different projects are involved, the designdocument is reviewed by the team itself, since at this point the specific domain knowledge andfamiliarity with the overall system structure become more important.The teams then proceed to implementation. At least one formal code review is done during class,and teams are encouraged to follow the same procedure for the entire system. Test plans areprepared and

At the present time, there is 1996 ASEE Annual Conference Proceedings Page 1.29.5a dearth of classroom texts on trenchless technology.

Too much emphasiswas placed on engineering science, and not enough on aspects of engineering. The reduction ofengineering drawing, manufacturing methods and similar topics has made matters worse.Redress was initiated by introducing methods of problem solving at some institutions. Proceduralknowledge, especially for open-ended problems, is a necessary

In this project, questions are deliberately presented in a coherent manner throughout the game to assist students in deciding what they already know about the problem and what needs to be explored further. Doing so forces students to conduct the sophisticated kind of thinking required for drawing inferences and developing interpretations.

Theseattributes included the ability to: ● demonstrate reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills; ● demonstrate an awareness of what needs to be learned; ● follow a learning plan; ● identify, retrieve, and organize information; ● understand and remember new information; ● demonstrate critical thinking skills; and, ● reflect on one‟s own
