The shorter model has been used as thebasis for the activity described in this paper.The webquest has become popular enough to be featured on standard ESL/EFL websites containingteaching materials, notably www.onestopenglish.com and of course, Bernie Dodge’s own website(www.webquest.org).First integrated as a classroom activity in 2005, the webquest represents an intermediary step towardsthe full implementation of Web 2.0 technology based activities in the lesson plan.

His disciplinary area isMechanical Engineering, and he stated that “A successful Mechanical Engineeringsolution often requires an equal application of information, energy and materialstechnology. As such, the most important research areas in Mechanical Engineering are ablend of systems research and engineering science research.” His department hasidentified specific and critical research thrusts which include

From this experiment, students can gain a betterunderstanding of the behavior of a dynamic system comprised of an activated carbon adsorber.Assessment of learning outcomes is being collected, which will include a specific comparison ofexperiences for on-site students to remote students.The experiment is currently planned for implementation in two undergraduate courses in Spring2006. Future plans are to add the ability to adjust flow rate remotely, provide for using twodifferent “contaminants”, and allow one of two different activated carbons to be selected.

They stress the importance of reflection through gettingfeedback from students for effective evaluation, where success can be measured by anonymousstudent surveys that ask questions about the course and videos. This ties in with their view on theimportance for constant improvement and continually working to provide better resources forstudent learning. This emphasizes the importance of recognizing that the process of creatingvideos does not end once they are made available for use, but continues into the vital stage ofreceiving feedback and measuring their success by different metrics.

Therefore, by doing just one ‘major project’ work, the students do not get enough experience in the institute to handle the real projects when they reach the industry. b) In such a scenario, often the main objectives of the project work of developing skills such as, planning, leading teams, communication, working in teams, decision making, and such others do not get developed by just one ‘major project’ offering in the last program. This is much to the disadvantage of the student, as most of the times the ‘major project’ is a group activity. Therefore, the requisite project handling skill- sets hardly gets developed as it is offered only once in

Previously, theauthors had proposed two separate portable desktop units for these lab activities with theircorresponding lab activities and they also mentioned their plan to incorporate instrumentation inthese lab activities ([1, 2, 3]). Currently, there are 21 PLC trainers and a prototype is alreadybeing built for the fluid power lab. Further discussion and consideration resulted in identifyingsome lab activities that can be shared if there were one set of trainers that cater to the need ofboth courses.This paper discusses the design and development of an integrated trainer

How do the engineering identity, extracurricular experiences, post-graduation career plans, and familial influence of Hispanic students attending a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) differ from those of Hispanic students attending a Predominantly White Institution (PWI)? 2.
