Kaneohe Marine Corps Air Station after graduating with his B.S.E.E. Upon completing his M.S.E.E., he was an electrical engineer with the National Bureau of Standards in Boulder, Colorado designing hardware for precision fiber optic measurements. He then entered the commercial sector as a staff engineer with Burroughs Corporation in San Diego, California developing fiber optic LAN systems. He left Burroughs for Tacan/IPITEK Corporation as Manager of Electro-Optic Systems developing fiber optic CATV hardware and systems. In 1990 he joined the faculty of the University of San Diego. He remains an active consultant in radio frequency and analog circuit design, and teaches review coursed

scrutiny in thepast decade. As cited later, there have been concerns expressed that graduate programshave become less focused on preparing civil engineers for the professional practice ofcivil engineering and more focused on engineering research. An added concern in thisperceived trend has been that the future educators of civil engineers who graduate withPh.D.’s may be less prepared to foster the best possible learning in practical civilengineering design. These concerns may or may not be justified, but the current dialoguecertainly provides an opportunity for civil engineering departments to reexamine theirgraduate programs to identify whether they are doing to their best to prepare theirgraduates.

To reinforce this approach, the TECT workshop makes useof existing engineering related student summer camps to conduct concurrent teacher andcounselor in-service education and promote best practices that reach across the diversity ofstudent learning styles and interests. In the TECT workshops, the teachers and counselorsinteract with students in the summer camps, learn new engineering and pedagogical content, andparticipate in teaching selected summer camp activities.To date, three TECT workshops have been held that

NIOSH wrote a standalone chapter on PtD for anenvironmental engineering book on water and waste water delivery systems. He is alsoincluding case studies of PtD in practice. The project team is encouraging creativity among theauthors, and respecting the fact that the books are their own intellectual property.Some of the case studies given below are the result of retrofitting improvements to designs thatwere already in use by industry. Ideally, the best changes are made in the initial design phaseand thus any negative consequences avoided. The last example is different from the rest in that itis guidance for structural engineers on how to create an “erector friendly column” to preventconstruction worker injuries.

They are then asked to develop anexperimental procedure to determine the specific weight of each solution. This procedure mustbe designed to reduce experimental error as much as possible. Students typically revert tomaking multiple measurements, which is in-line with what they have been taught to do intraditional laboratory experiments. Consistently, the students arbitrarily pick a volume tomeasure. It is only through guided questions about other experiments such as measuring velocity,that students realize their impact of measurement error will be decreased by measuring thelargest volume possible. Students can understand how to reduce the
