curriculum is formed by a merger of manycurriculum subspaces, which are the unique curricula for each non-EE area. Each curriculumsub-space is designed independently for one non-EE engineering field and includes the requiredtopics and their associated depth of coverage. The intersection of curriculum subspaces forms thecore of the final curriculum that will be taught in the lecture portion of the class. The areas thatare unique to each non-EE field forms the web-based curriculum. The laboratory will also bedesigned accordingly: some in-class lab experiments will be designed to address the needs of allnon-EE majors, and some in-class as well as web-based lab experiments, will be designed toaddress the special needs of each non-EE field.We started by

theonline group (16.0%). The Circuits course is the first course in Electrical Engineering (EE), andis therefore more important to EE majors than to students majoring in other fields of engineering.It can also be inferred that the perceived importance of the Circuits course to EE majors may beone of the reasons why fewer of them take the class online. Another advantage of the on-campusgroup is the number of students who were concurrently taking the laboratory class for Circuits.A majority (83.3%) of on-campus students were taking the Circuits lecture and laboratorycourses simultaneously while only 12% of the online students were enrolled in the laboratoryclass. The laboratory class gives students opportunities to apply and experimentally

Such an approach has two attractive features for engineers. First, it is a rational andquantitative process that is easily appreciated by engineers. Second, because it examines allstages of the life cycle, it allows engineers to easily identify what design or processimprovements will lead to the greatest reduction in environmental impact.The present paper will describe a laboratory experience used in a senior level materials andprocess selection design course developed by the author.

This isattributed to the rougher surface finish the schedule 40 PVC pipes use that causes disturbance inplaner wave. For higher performing samples i.e. fiberglass and cotton shoddy, the agreement inperformance is acceptable.We believe the tube is very useful for instructional purpose as well as conducting relativecomparisons among various acoustic materials in order to rank order the test materials withoutrequirement of expensive laboratory testing or similar test practices.

Traditionally for teaching technology-based courses,laboratory experiments were offered using a hands-on approach. With the miniaturization ofintegrated circuits, it is becoming very difficult to construct a PC board or assemble surfacemount chips in a lab environment. This shortcoming of the hands-on approach has led professorsand teachers to incorporate simulation in place of hands-on in technology-based lab courses.

Further,when an Xer professor begins teaching a new course, that course should not be a basic course,but a secondary (higher level) one utilizing the basic course as a prerequisite. After teaching oneor more of these secondary courses, the more experienced professor is assignable to the basiccourse.This concept of having the senior, Boomer, professors primarily teaching basic courses whileleaving the more advanced courses for the Xers is reinforced by the learning differences in Mil-lennials and Xers.
