thecommissions are “enabled and appointed by the Board.” ASCE was unconvinced by thisargument, because the issue at hand was about establishing policies and procedures, notconducting accreditation activities.At the meeting, ASCE’s Board members went forward with their two planned motions regardingapproval authority for the APPM, and both were approved. From ASCE’s perspective, thisdecision affirmed the Board’s sole responsibility for approving ABET policies and procedures.Program NamingWithout question, the most complex and controversial accreditation policy issue faced by theASCE task committee has been program naming. At the heart of this issue is paragraphII.E.4.c.(2) of the APPM: “If a program name implies specialization(s) for which ProgramCriteria

People who take initiative and gain energy frominteractions are known as Extroverts (E). Introverts (I), on the other hand prefer more of arelatively passive role and gain energy internally. The second category describes how a personprocesses information. A person who process data with their senses is referred to as a Sensors(S) and a person who sees where data is going in the future is called an iNtuitor (N). The Sensorversus iNtuitor category is an interesting area of study when it comes to engineering education,because professors are historically intuitors while most engineering

After some discussion, we arrived at some possible reasons why thisoccurred.Design presentations have been in place in ECE since 1978, when it was first implemented insenior design. In the mid 1990’s the practice was integrated into sophomore and senior design.Because the practice has been in place in all three courses for almost 20 years, it has becomeinstitutionalized as a disciplinary genre in oral communication. Student familiarity with theexpectations of the presentation—the team approach and the prescribed time limit of 20minutes—may explain the minimal difference between project and control students’performances.
