The American Association for Higher Education (AAHE) has recently published“Electronic Portfolios: Emerging Practices for Students, Faculty, and Institutions”6 that presentsarticles by nineteen portfolio practitioners including students and faculty from a range ofdisciplines and institutions describing the construction of electronic portfolios.Review of Portfolio Use in Engineering ProgramsWhile the use of portfolios in engineering programs is not pervasive, neither is it new. Portfolioswere used to document achievement in the E3 Program at Illinois Institute of Technology in the1970s.7 Since the mid 1990s there has been evidence of the use of portfolios in engineeringprograms at a number of institutions including
”hurricanes and storm activity. These issues, indirectly related to the culture of these people,challenge the engineering interests of the students. Determining the impact of flooding associatedwith storms, students gain an appreciation for howfragile the ecology can be and how technology cansupport the island at a time when the culture gets inthe way. Since the land offers such great potential, itis essential that the government reduces the damagecaused by the hurricanes. Teams propose usingrecycled tires in the form of tire bales as a means toreduce soil erosion. They recommend building balewalls, schematically represented in Figure 4, to formdamns that capture and slow the flow of water.Sediment settles from the water restoring the soil in
