as a facilitator, the instructor should monitor the discussion but retain veto rights. Theinstructor should be open-minded to the ideas of the students while also considering theeducational quality expected of the university. Outrageous suggestions should be courteouslyvetoed. The instructor will need to draw out the opinions of the quieter students and be certainthat the changes being discussed reflect the opinion of the silent majority not just the vocalminority.(6) By listening to the students, and allowing them to have a part in developing the Page 8.2.3 Proceedings of the 2003 American Society of Engineering Education Annual

Terry, Kurt Sandholtz Brigham Young University/Novations Group, Inc.IntroductionRecent reports aimed at improving engineering education are consistent in recommending newattributes for future graduates.1,2 These attributes are in addition to the strong technicalcapabilities for which engineers have been known and are frequently referred to as the ‘soft’skills. They include: 1. An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams. 2. An understanding of

This also provides a necessary connection in children’s mind betweenconsumer products and processes that bring these products into existence. It has been suggestedthat this design extends the straightforward appearance of an interactive exhibit accessible byonly a computer screen and a mouse on a table. The screen is embedded into the “coffee mug,”and the game can be played

From these conversations, some key takeawaysincluded the student’s lack of being able to develop a Production Part Approval Process plan,design fixtures to hold parts or measuring instruments during the inspection process,misunderstanding of data in control charts, and inability to complete a design of experiments.With this in mind, manufacturing and quality engineers from local injection molding companiesand small machine shops were asked about donating parts (good and bad), as well as theassociated mechanical drawings, for students to use as part of class projects.

OverviewMost engineering students see industry or research career paths as binary. In their minds, aperson can either focus on research (academic career) or design and management (industrial orprofessional career). This perception has a negative impact on the profession as it leads to missedopportunities to solve practical problems by applying new fundamental research, as well asbasing fundamental research on current engineering problems.Smart Structures Technologies (SST) is receiving considerable attention as the demands for highperformance in structural systems increase. Although both the academic and professionalengineering worlds are seeking ways to utilize SST, there is a significant gap betweenengineering science and engineering practice. To
