Due to efforts and initiatives taken during the successive Five Year Plans and particularly due to policy changes in the 80‟s to allow participation of private entities in setting up technical institutions on self financing basis, growth of technical education has been phenomenal. The growth in AICTE approved institutions in the last five years is given in Table-1 and the growth of intake in various institutions in the last five years is given in Table-2.

Indian Society forTechnical Education (ISTE) has been in the field of imparting faculty developmentprogram particularly for the engineering faculty in the country since 1968. Unity ofengineering concepts, increasing international cooperation in engineering activities,frequent activities of an engineer outside his national or cultural domain and often asmembers of an international engineering team are compelling us to venture

The IT and BPO industry is growth is largely drivenby the supply of the talented manpower However the opportunities available and thesuccess of the Indian IT industry is also posing talent challenges that the industry isfinding difficult to manage. The search for talent is pushing employers to look beyondIndia‟s so-called Tier 1 cities and colleges – and is revealing critical skills gaps in thattalent.

class at least.4. The Perception of Engineering Faculty to the teaching evaluation Recently the department chairs and deans begin to think the necessity of the qualitative evaluation like portfolio evaluation and peer’s reviews. Especially they considered the course portfolio as an appropriate method of faculty assessment. When we looked at the data from Korean engineering faculty (Cho, et al, 2009), only 28.5% out of 221 respondents were satisfied with current faculty evaluation system (table 1). 69.1% out of 223 respondents agreed that it was necessary for the faculty evaluation system should change (table 2). 76.5% of 217 agreed to increase the ratio of teaching in evaluating faculty performance. 92.7% of 218 respondents agreed to use

The two groups did not differ in time writing papers and working on projects. (SeeTable 1.) Given that U.S. students spend about 15 hours per week in lecture and Indian studentsspend about 23 hours in lecture, U.S. students were closer to following the Golden Rule thanIndian students, but neither group appeared to be following the rule.Table 1.

The bridge has6’ ramps and a 2’-long deck section. Building the car with sufficient torque to climb theapproach ramp while still achieving high top speed is one of the key challenges for the students.The starting line can be seen toward the upper left of the figure. The course is outlined with ducttape and flag posts mark the turning points.Students begin the competition with a short lecture on torque and gear ratios. They are alsoshown short videos of the course and starting sequence. Next, they are given car kits andchallenged to build the fastest car for the course. The kits

Inaddition, we describe three student projects that were based on the Z80 system.IntroductionUndergraduate courses in microprocessors are typically based on simple training kits orsimulators based on processors such as the 6800 or 8085 connected to system components suchas memory, clock, etc.1 In these courses, the internal architecture as well as the remaining systemcomponents and interconnects (memory, clocks, buses, etc.) were described conceptually and theemphasis, in terms of the hardware usage, was on learning and using the instruction set andinterfacing peripheral devices. Since those early times, microprocessor technology hasprogressed to the point that a trainer employing a Pentium or Core 2 device would
