For this reason, Cramster website use was first compared with common mea-sures of students’ skills entering the course to determine whether a lack of preparationcaused a predisposition for website use. Scores on both the SAT Math test and thefinal exam of the prerequisite course were normalized; the Z score for a given student’sexam, s, is calculated by normalizing the deviation from the mean by the standarddeviation, or s−µ Zs = .

Session 2548 Using Modeling Software for Environmental Engineering Technology Steven S. Schneiderman Murray State UniversityABSTRACT An environmental modeling course allows students to develop software utilizationcapability through three stages. In the primary phase students become accustomed to thecapabilities of spreadsheet and statistical packages. In the intermediate phase studentscreate personal models using mathematical and analytical programs. Finally, students areexposed to industry modeling packages. Each phase is dedicated toward utilizing themodels to depict instantaneous conditions and as

There is virtually no potential student any place in the world or inany lifestyle condition who cannot be accessed, instructed and evaluated electronically via a phoneconnection and computer, and at increasingly affordable prices. In todayÀs marketplace, access tocomputers and on-line services is more a matter of choice rather than cost, meaning thatsocioeconomic status is not a deterrent to having access to technology. Virtual universities, whichtake full advantage of this new computing environment, hold the promise to revolutionizeeducation delivery in the 21st century.During the 1996-2006 decade, employment in science and engineering (S&E) occupations isexpected to increase at more than three

You need to get permission tohave access to the site and have the weather cooperate.Once the photograph has been obtained, it will need to be scanned, saved in a digital format andmanipulated in to is final form. Some questions that need to be answered are; “What digitalformat (gif, tif, jpg, etc.)?”, “What bit size (number of colors)?” and “What is the size of thewindow in which it will be presented?”. All this work is necessary for just one image. To finallyget the photograph into its final form can take several steps, each using a different softwarepackage. Before the actual software development for this project began, over 500 photographswere taken during the construction of several buildings on campus and

Eachexperiment is preceded by a computer tutorial written in Labview® which introduces thecandidate to the background material, provides an application usually in the manufacturingcontext, assigns reading and homework problems, and demonstrates the experiment viaanimation. The modular experiments fit on table tops and are located at the CAT. Grading forthese five modules is based on homework sets and group laboratory reports. There are alsoindividual (pencil-and-paper) tests at the end of each module.The remaining thirteen modules, developed by M. Schumack, M. Vaksman, S.
