integrate wireless sensor networks concepts into their curriculum.IntroductionA wireless sensor network (WSN) is a network of a set of independent small nodes equippedwith sensor(s), a wireless radio, a battery, and an on-board processor. Usually, the unit thatconsists of the wireless radio and the on-board processor is called a mote. With the recentadvances in MEMS technology, wireless communications, and digital electronics, the design anddevelopment of low-cost, low power, multifunctional sensor nodes that are small in size andcommunicate untethered in short distances have become feasible. The ever-increasingcapabilities of these tiny sensor nodes, which include sensing, data processing, andcommunicating, enable the realization of wireless

However, there is a reasonable percentage where the source(s) of the error havenot been identified, but appear to be related to specific computer and operating systemcombinations. The error(s) are not resolved when we have tried installing more recent versionsof OrCAD PSpice on these computers. Given that our student population in the courses that useLab-in-a-Box ranges is roughly 550 students per semester, this presents significant demand fortechnical support at the beginning of each semester.

However, as SCADA systems began to integrate withpersonal computers, they were exposed to outside volatile networks, bypassing the common“security by obscurity” philosophy [5, 6].Several instances occurred in the early 2000’s that raised concern about the security of SCADA Page 25.877.2environments[7].

quality will be upheld in a larger class size environment.6. SummaryTraditional teaching tools for engineering economy have served the students well over the years.However, there is a need to enhance the learning experience based on contemporary students’expectations. It is shown that the case study based teaching approach utilized here incorporatesactive learning and the chosen case studies highlight the applications of theoretical principles toreal-world business problems. Case study-based analysis also enhances communication skills ofthe students. The students found the new case-study based teaching approach challenging as wellas rewarding.References 1. Grose, T.

The need for guiding criteria is especially acutewhen faculty members are integrating new learning outcomes into their courses.“Closing the loop,” or leveraging assessment data to identify deficiencies in class activities,courses, or programs, and as a guide on how to address those identified deficiencies, is acommon weakness of assessment programs. Rubrics provide a powerful tool for guiding thedevelopment of learning activities that cultivate specific elements of the entrepreneurial mindset.Rubrics are equally powerful tools for assessing the effectiveness of class activities designed toadvance specific

S. national strategic plan for manufacturing released inFebruary11 and the Advanced Manufacturing Partnership report due in March, manufacturing isbecoming more visible as a priority and becoming more important in engineering and technologyeducation programs. This portends an increase in resources and support for manufacturingresearch, education, and training along with the need for furthering collaboration andpartnerships among all of those whose aim is to enhance manufacturing.Some of the opportunities for contributions include taking up action on items in the tables bothindividually and collectively through groups such
