Professional Development (ECPD and today’s ABET)quickly implemented changes that resulted in a shift from the practical aspects of engineeringthat were taught in the laboratory to an increased emphasis on theory and basic science.2In the 1970’s with the completion of the moon mission and the cancellation of major engineeringprojects such as the supersonic transport, engineering education saw a significant decline infunding and as a result, many schools reduced laboratory requirements to save money. At thesame time, industry demanded more practical skills and in response, many education institutionsdeveloped technology programs. The boundaries between engineers and technologist becameblurred and so ECPD began to accredit two and four year programs

Bloom’s Taxonomybefore embarking on the course design process. Many if not most instructors are already versedin the taxonomy but it is important to ensure that there is training available for those who are not.It is essential to have this vocabulary in course design.Getting StartedBefore working on the CDM, it is important to get organized: • Organize lectures in sequence • Organize classroom activities in sequence • Organize assignments, projects and exams • Arrange materials into tentative weekly modulesModule Title, Summary StatementThe module title provides the main theme(s) for the module and the summary statement providesa sentence about each topic covered in the module.

expected 1Volt. Butin ice water the expected reading of near zero was not realized. This puzzled the students andwas explained to them in the lecture portion as being caused by a mis-match of componentimpedances.Students are reminded that when dealing with 2-component systems, ideally, the system shouldhave an output (source) with low impedance and an input (load) with high impedance. In thepresent circuit, the output was from the AD594 thermocouple amplifier, and the input went to theUSB-6008 NIDAQ. In Figure 13 and Eq. 4, is the voltage and is the resistance(impedance). The subscript “L” refers to the load and “S” to the source. From the data sheetsand specifications of the two pieces of hardware, RL was found to be 145 kΩ and RS to be 50

Page 25.560.32.1.3 Scratch CardsFollowing an introduction to the TA union and its responsibilities, scratch cards (see Appendix C– Figure C4) were used to administer a brief, closed-book, multiple-choice quiz on the material(see Appendix D1). The benefit of the scratch card is that if the trainee is unsure of the answer,s/he can scratch out all possible answers until the correct one is revealed. The use of scratchcards in this instance allows us to convey important material to the trainees in a quick andeffective way. Because the answers are provided immediately to the trainees via the scratch card,discussion can be kept brief and to the point.3.

most analysts and policy makers in higher education isfitness of purpose [5]. In this view, the level of quality is determined by the extent to which aproduct or service meets its stated purpose(s) or requirement(s). Due to a lack of consensusamong different stakeholders and/or customers, it is challenging to articulate the purpose ofhigher education. The objective of higher education may be instruction in skills, promotion of thegeneral powers of the mind, advancement of learning, and transmission of a common culture andstandard of citizenship [6]. The above list is not exhaustive as the objective of higher educationmay also include developing critical thinking abilities, creativity, gainful employment, thediscovery of knowledge, and social
