Students may have learned to recognize “A” levelmastery of the subject matter, and have a good idea of how long it will take to achieve it, but stillhave their plans interrupted by externally imposed changes in work schedules, by sick children(especially in single parent households) or other non-academic factors. These constraints are lesssevere with traditional student populations where traditionally many institutions of highereducation are founded. Going forward, our institution will need to consider that divergentconstraints are greater for the non-traditional student populations that now form the new majorityin higher education [7].According to the 2014 US Census Report, people with bachelor’s degrees in science, technology

There is a prototype of this machine being built at present.Also, a discussion of safety programming has been planned and may be taught thissemester. Hopefully the software will work properly.These courses continue to mature and produce qualified students looking for good jobs inindustrial automation.

Since instructors are naturally more willing to put theirefforts into evidence-based teaching practices it is critical that we are able to measure whetherlearning increases have occurred as a result of new practices.Concept inventories (CIs) are available for such engineering topics as statics and dynamics, heatand energy, signals and systems as well as statistics, however there are no proven valid, reliableCIs available for engineering economy. Thus we are interested in developing such a tool. In thispaper we will discuss the development of the Engineering Economy Concept Inventory (EECI),results from assessment of its validity, and plans for further study and

The MEOI construction method begins with measuring out, on the surfaceof the rock, the plan dimensions which the 12 meter x 12 meter church and the 25-meter squaretrench that surrounds the church. Once the measurements were taken, the soft volcanic tufa couldbe carefully marked or scored such that the outline of the trench and the church were clearlydelineated.
