Engineering is the foundation of our techno-human condition and deservesassessment not only in terms of manifest benefits but also in relationship to its own fragilities,threats, and global mutations.This point deserves reiteration. As Kristin Shrader-Frechette [13] has argued at length, there is apersistent tendency for technical appeals to experts and expertise to both underestimate risk.There is an equally persistent among technical experts to continue engineering technologies thatthey themselves assess as posing significant risks.

The easy shortcuts include having another student write for them, copying or buying a paper from the web, plagiarizing from a book or paper. Projects: The great variety in types of projects precludes a list of common cheats. However the use of resources they should not use may sum it up. This might include talking to or working with other students, accessing information on forbidden sources (like asking for expert help on a website). Class participation: This usually involves some sort of attendance requirement that is overcome such as by having another student sign in for them.Some of these methods

In April 1985, the first 32-bit ARMprocessor implemented in the 3 ǂm process came to life. It was a 32-bit RISC machine builtwith only 25,000 transistors.

Our small-scale Foucault’s Pendulum experiments were carried out in two differentcountries as an independent study by a sophomore engineering student. Project Based Learning(PBL) was applied in this study. Since Foucault’s experiment is in such a big scale, logistically itis hard to demonstrate it at schools. The aim of this study was to create a small-scale pendulumso other students and teachers around the world can easily build one to prove the Earth’srotation. Using a small-scale setup, about 3 meters in length, we studied the effects of the Earth’srotation on the pendulum’s precession with identical materials (i.e., object’s mass and size
