addressed this problem by: 1) modifying threecourses offered at the Associate Degree level to include concepts that bridge the two technologies; and 2)introducing a new four-year degree program, Bachelor of Science in Electro-Mechanical EngineeringTechnology (BSEMET), in the Fall, 1994, semester. The solution to the training problem created two major pedagogical problems. The first problem wasto properly deliver the interdisciplinary content in the three modified courses. While the courses covered bothproduct design and production system design and had a mix of electrical and mechanical concepts, there wasno effort to use the same product examples in all three courses.

Page 5.625.2- They are simply input – output machines, the outputs are either numbers or diagrams; there was little attempt to visualize the testing process.- The equipment is described conceptually; the pictures shown are schemes without details. This is good for a supplementary teaching tool, for parametric analyses, etc. but has limited value in teaching the conduct of particular experiment, especially if the procedure will not be performed in a real laboratory.- Finally, the soil models used are

However, itwas very difficult to match these requests in view of the inadequate amount of space and time,and the limited availability of teaching assistants. In this paper, we present the design of a Remote Internetworking Laboratory, which we fullyimplemented, tested and allowed for use by a sample group of students. Our design allows thelab to be accessed remotely, anywhere and at anytime. Furthermore, it overcomes the limitationon the number of devices, by making them accessible 24 hours/7 days a week.
