. However, the moral theory based analysis is new to this paper.The first author was a metallurgical engineer for a steel company. Our customer was one of the fivelargest companies in the country making consumer appliances. We were selling them sheet steel to beused in the core of the electrical motors of the appliances. Being a large company, the specifications forthe steel were written by engineers at a site about 200 miles away from the customer's productionfacility. We were faced with a problem for if our steel met the specification for hardness, then the steelwould not physically work in the customer' s press. If we made a softer steel that could be fabricatedin the presses then it will not have met the customer's written specifications. We

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Wells’s Island of Dr. Moreau “depict[s] the takeover ofnatural female function by crazed male science.” 2 Frankenstein uses technology to create lifewhile Moreau uses it to metamorphose animal into human life, and both play the role of parent totheir creatures. Indeed, the only females on the island are some of Moreau’s subjects.Curiously, though, as Moreau first introduces Prendick to the island, he suggests that all of thecreatures are female in some sense: “Our little establishment here contains a secret or so, is a kind of Blue-Beard’s chamber, in fact. Nothing very dreadful, really, to a sane man.” (20)The reference to Bluebeard places Moreau in the position of a serial wife slayer, which in

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.
