They were met and hosted in Germany by Mr. Ferdinand Walbaum of Muelheim andMr. Werner Franz (formerly of Lake Mary Siemens Telecommunications) of Krefeld.Selection criteria was developed and prioritized for U. S. student participation in the program. Itwas determined that the prime criteria should be engineering technology majors (3.0 GPA orhigher) in design or manufacturing operations with Metrology, CAD/CAM, Machining, andLogistics courses completed. The interval of training should be in the Summer of the Junior year,with provisions for additional coursework and part-time internship with Siemens-Westinghouseduring the Senior year. Students could look forward to a potential offer of full-time employmentupon graduation

Giving students a better introduction to HC11 assemblylanguage would allow us to concentrate more on hardware system architecture and advancedsoftware programming techniques like mixed assembly and C, which has routinely been taughtin the laboratory since 1995.Based on these diverse needs, we took the unusual step of deciding to teach two

Each of these individuals had worked in industry for periods ranging from five to eleven years and brought their experience to their new jobs. Their industrial background may have been seen as an asset to the department and made them more attractive candidates than new Ph.D.’s coming straight out of graduate school. In addition, their experience may have allowed them to negotiate for a higher starting salary than a new Ph.D. graduate could command.· The importance of maintaining contacts within the engineering community.

that the size of the testingfacility may be much smaller than the size of the class. On the other hand, if it is difficult todevelop a large number of good questions, then large numbers of students may need to take anon-line test simultaneously. This requires a very large on-campus laboratory that can be madeavailable for testing when needed. A particularly successful example of the use of a largelaboratory using on-line course materials with on-line testing is the Math Emporium at VirginiaTechnical University2.Our experience points to differences in the ease of creating large question banks for on-linetesting. There are many numerical types of problems that can be infinitely varied by s implychanging the numbers. Rather than specific

-specific educational objectives.The shortcomings of using standardized end of semester assessments can be overcome by using aseries of multiple short assessments during a semester, in which assessments are designedspecifically for the course and the student body. This assessment-improvement feedback processflowchart is shown in Figure 1. This process substantially reduces the assessment -improvement-verification turn-around time, making it easier to determine the effectiveness of teaching orcurriculum changes on the learning experience. It also addresse s the problem of varying classdynamics since changes in course curriculum or the teaching style directly benefit those studentsparticipating in the assessment.

Unfortunately, the percentage of womenpursuing a doctoral degree is only 33%. Percentages are even lower in physical sciences, 23%,and in engineering, percentages drop to 12% as opposed to the 40% of women who earnedM.D.’s last year. 11Why are the numbers so low in the science and engineering fields in colleges and

But since I planned, prepared, performed eachclass and received interim feedback from my students, peers and senior instructors, I feel Isignificantly improved my skills as an instructor in a short amount of time.

In all the threemodels shown in Figure 6, the mass M has one degree-of-freedom and can vibrate horizontally.The stiffness K represents the stiffness of the column(s), which can be experimentally ortheoretically determined from the following formula: K = 12EI/L3, if the top end of the columndoes not rotate, and 3EI/L3, if the top end of the column does rotate. In these formulae E =modulus of elasticity of the column material, I = moment of inertia of the column cross-section,and L = clear height of the column.
