While such a course has the advantage of exposing a large number ofstudents to some science and engineering knowledge, unless well-done, such a course is likely tohave minimal impact on the overall understanding of technological or engineering principles andpractices for most of the students. Courses could also be centered on laboratory experiments,which allow the students to gain hands-on experience with engineering principles
