1960’s to provide power for analuminum smelter at the tip of the South Island. The design of the plant included a powerhouse 700 feetunderground and a six-mile long tailrace tunnel system, in addition to the proposed raising of Lake Manapouri by100 feet.4 This analysis reviews the technological, environmental, and economic issues that have arisen in thesiting, construction, and operation of the original plant and during the recently completed expansion of the tailracecapacity. The impacts of the deregulation of New Zealand’s electricity market and the availability of power fromalternative hydro sources are also considered in an overall benefit-cost assessment of the Manapouri project.Evidence is drawn from government records and interviews

interaction. Today, managers must help their employeesunderstand each other better and realize that someone who is different than themselves is not inany way less valuable. A useful tool to help people further understand themselves and others isthe Myers-Briggs Type Indicator test. The Myers-Briggs type indicator test was designed by Isabel Myers-Briggs and KatherineBriggs in the 1920’s. The test is based on Carl Jung’s psychological types. The general aim oftype theory involves self, others, and self-development. The first aim of type theory is “toprovide an economical summary of central aspects of personality, one which increases self-understanding and implies certain ways of behaving more than others8.” The second aim is tohelp individuals
a sequence ofstripes on a sheet of paper and convert that sequence of stripes into the associated textmessage. The data scanner is designed around the RCX programmable brick. The RCXbrick is based on the Hitachi H8/3292 microprocessor and includes three output ports thatcan be used to control motors and three input ports that can be used to receive data from avariety of sensors, including touch sensors and light sensors. The data scanner uses theRCX's light sensor(s) to read data encoded in a series of stripes on a piece of paper 8.5inches wide. This data is encoded using a bi-phase modulation code and a Huffmancompression code (that is explained in class). The project is carried out using the "Not-Quite-C" (NQC) programming

graduates during the first few years after graduation. Program Outcomes – statements that describe what students are expected to know and able to do by the time of graduation. These relate to the skill, knowledge and behaviors that students acquire in their matriculation through the program. Performance Criteria – specific, measurable statements identifying the performance(s) required to meet the outcome: confirmable through evidence. Assessment – one process that identify, collect, use and prepare data that can be used to evaluate achievement. Evaluation – process of reviewing the results of data collection and analysis and making a determination of the value of finding and action to be takenFor

with the opportunity to think about the larger social issuesassociated with the service project. The objectives of structured reflection are to develop asensitivity in the students to the impact of professional decisions on society and the environmentand to provide the students with an opportunity to think about concepts of ethics and soundprofessional practice 3. Since the 1980’s, service-learning has been formally and successfully implemented in thesocial sciences and in disciplines in which clinical experiences are required 2, 5, 7. In 1985,Campus Compact was established to provide support for both service-learning and volunteerismat universities and colleges. Since then, Campus Compact has been able to gain support forservice

it comes to applying the scientific content they have studied. But how do engineeringeducators develop this necessary common sense in their students? Since the 1970’s, capstone “Proceedings of the 2003 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference & Exposition Page 8.324.1 Copyright © 2003, American Society for Engineering Education”engineering design courses, where students are provided the opportunity to practice using theircommon sense as they apply physical principles towards real-world design applications, havebecome an accepted part of many engineering programs. But why wait until their
any additional questions that have not been answered during the study time. Afterwards, everyone can make a copy of the questions and ask their professors in the next class.In addition, this lesson teaches the team manager and team recorder how to be facilitators andhow to help the study team members stay focused and maximize their study time. They also helptheir study team avoid the following common pitfalls [10]: • Hero trap—the team relies on one person to answer all of the questions. • Social trap—the team discusses everything related to life EXCEPT the math or physics subject matter. • Freeloader trap—under-prepared teammate(s) who rely on others to “give” them the answers.In the second week
research in the formof customer interviews, concept testing surveys, and conjoint analyses are encouraged. Finallythe students develop a strategy for reaching their market segment(s) and provide a riskassessment. Students submit a 20-page (maximum) report on their findings.Grade Assessment. Grade assessments are based on: class attendance and participation; essayassignments on the cases; in-class quizzes on the cases and related readings; problem sets; andthe abovementioned term project. Attendance and classroom participation comprise 30% of thefinal grade. Essay assignments, quizzes and problem sets comprise 40%. The term projectcomprises 30%. Attendance is usually not a problem with this popular class. Nevertheless,students understand that any
