At the end of the semester, the finished ROVs competed in a series of underwaterevents in the Rowan swimming pool and also performed a field exploration in a local pond.In recent years, robots and various kinds of ROVs are becoming increasingly popular inscientific research, education and public entertainment. To many people, they have becomealmost the hallmark of modern engineering and technology, especially the “real” tangiblepart of the field. Among the various ROVs, we chose the underwater ROV to be the subjectof our new hands-on project based course since its skill level is proper for undergraduateeducation and its operation is manageable within the scope

It provides materialsfor personal discussions outside of class. 6 Sharing the results with the class such as most popularmovies, favorite musical groups, etc., can provide connection within the class. 6Another method is to have students write a memo about themselves.

advantage ofthis revolution and include technology into their courses as a tool to improve the learning processand enhance the curiosity of the students. Technology could be used for self-directed learning,especially in learn-distance classes, and would require the student to interactively becomeacquainted with the engineering concepts and to go beyond the information presented duringclass. Moreover, especially in classes that are predominantly theoretical, technology can be usedfor visualization of abstract notions, raising the interest of the students and facilitating theirunderstanding for a more complete and competitive preparation for their stepping into the work-world.

is becoming more commonplace;high technology is altering the role of the instructor in the classroom; active learning in team envi-ronments, which fosters communication and interpersonal skills, is replacing the traditional lec-ture mode1,3,7,9,10,12,18,23. Merging of the teaching and research fronts is also needed. Boyer4 hascalled for moving beyond the “teaching versus research” debate by focusing on scholarship,which is an outgrowth of the full range of academic endeavors. In pursuit of scholarship, the inte-gration and inter-relation of teaching, research, technology transfer, and service are all acknowl-edged and valued.

Albert EinsteinThis article is intended for Undergraduate and Graduate students as a brief introduction of the potential capabilities of theapplied Atomic Theory in the benefit of humankind, as it apply to modern engineering and technology.Although the special theory of relativity was introduced almost a century ago, it is still a fairly new concept. The world hadseen some of its positive as well as negative results. Worldwide research, related to relativity, as well as nuclear physics ingeneral, is one of the main topics in modern science. Much research is being done in such areas as Medical Imaging,including CAT scans, MRI and NMR technologies, Radioactive/ Radiometric Dating, and Radiation Detection, just tomention a few.
