It will include a literary search on the use of this method inhigher education, and will detail the process in which it is introduced into intermediate design coursesin steel and concrete, with student assessment of the process.IntroductionThere is a need for advances in technologies used in the profession of engineering to be included inthe educational process in higher education, however the question arises as to the extent of thisinclusion. With the vast number of topics that engineering students must be taught during theireducational career, the addition of new technologies is at times
applied behavioral science with a scope of practice that includesscreening, assessment, treatment, and technology/instrumentation related to the areas of fluency,speech production, language, cognition, voice, resonance, feeding and swallowing, and auditoryhabilitation/rehabilitation [1]. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) receive hundreds of hours ofclinical training involving direct patient care. SLPs are keenly aware of the many ways thattechnology can be applied to improve outcomes for patients with speech, language, voice, andswallowing problems. Their training however does not provide the technical knowledge andexperiences to design and implement technologies to support their clinical practice and patients.In contrast, engineering students
professionvii embodies this goal.Broadly consistent with all previous statements about the purpose of engineering, these recentdocuments extend beyond technological competence to professional responsibility or outcomes;and the outcomes include human rights, the environment, and the stewardship of natural re-sources as the fundamental basis of technological progress.Profound adjustment to the reality of the commitment is required now on the part of today’s edu-cators and the rising generation of engineers. Not only must engineers be capable of recognizingsustainable works and services; they must also claim responsibility for implementing it, and seeksocial acceptance of that role. The latter requires the delegation of substantive authority in lim-ited

The new department was regarded by some traditionalists as beingduplicative because there already existed a strong engineering school in the state, albeitphysically located in a sparsely populated area with little proximate industry. The newprogram was defensible only because, by being located in a populous area with the greatmajority of the technology industry in the state nearby, it could serve the large populationof place-bound students who could only afford a college education if they could live athome. It also gave employees of the manufacturing firms, typically technicians, access toengineering education which give

Moreover, the college is developing aleadership module for its introductory engineering course work for all students in the college.Longitudinal studies of the attitudes of graduates who participated in these efforts will greatlyaugment our current understanding of where college efforts are bearing fruit and where futureimprovements are required.Literature Cited:[1] Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.

: • Generate data in naturalistic settings that are chosen or intentionally designed to affirm the participants.Handling DataRelatedly, deficit views are often perpetuated when people exclusively focus on individualsrather than focusing on the ecologies in which they are embedded. For example, NAEP hasfound that African Americans performed worse than White students on measures of engineeringand technology literacy.[40] Rather than blaming individuals for this finding (e.g., by saying thatthe individual students were less motivated to study engineering) researchers can look at systemsfactors, such as the characteristics of the schools that African Americans attend, whether or notthe tasks on the engineering assessment were culturally congruent
