The respective reports resulted in ABET’s Program Outcomes(EC2000)4 and the Australian Graduate Attributes5 (AMEA), which both advocated a shift of theinstructional paradigm from the previously input-, content- and process-oriented system to anoutcomes-based approach.The concept of outcomes-based education revolves around a list of desired educationaloutcomes. In the application of this concept to instructional design, the outcomes are brokendown into learning objectives6, 7, subsequently learning activities are selected and delivered inorder to achieve the learning outcomes.

OnceTExT development is completed, it will be used to test the hypothesis that if the textbook of the20th century is replaced by TExTs in the 21st century, then a greater proportion of engineeringcourses will be taught using methods that are more effective than the traditional lecture.1.

students progress from basic data collection and reverse engineering projects throughmore open-ended, industry-sponsored capstone design experiences. The team ofmultidisciplinary faculty from Engineering and Communications who teach the sophomore levelcourses have observed the difficulty students have tackling the fundamental open-ended natureof true design problems and have subsequently revised the sequence. For the Fall of 2005 theSophomore Clinic sequence was revised to introduce Dym et al.’s converging-divergingframework for design by incorporating a series of three projects of increasing complexity withaccompany activities designed to reinforce the converging-diverging concepts.

Meanwhile, technicalwriting educators constantly seek to reinforce the importance of writing to students outside of thewriting class. Both interests, and ultimately those of students, are served when educators from Page 11.669.2various engineering departments work with technical writing educators to develop a gradingsystem that provides specific grading criteria for the grader(s) to ensure

Bloom42 in the early 50s and it hassince been translated into 22 languages and is one of the most widely applied and mostoften cited references in education43. The original taxonomy represented a multi-tieredmodel of classifying thinking according to six cognitive levels of complexity:Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation. Thetaxonomy was later revised by Lorin W. Anderson and David R.

2005, the number of awarded engineering degrees that includedonline components had not significantly increased. They noted a distinct misconception thatonline education in engineering has to be self-paced without clear instructor guidance and littlecollaboration. With the technology available today, that is not the case. The authors also notedno significant differences have been found between online and on-campus students from 1992-2002 as reported by Moore in 2002 in the Journal of Asynchronous Learning Networks. Bourneet al.’s key point is the pedagogy must be examined and evaluated. If this is done properly, thenonline engineering education is possible because the addition of synchronous time in a coursepermits nearly the same level of

Though the value of statistical information and analysis is beneficial, it doesnot provide an in-depth view of the effects and benefits on small businesses, theirowner(s) and the resultant innovation outcomes. Specifically, most research undertakenin evaluating the outcomes of innovation policy often do no more than broad and insome cases, industry specific statistical analyses, surveys and short interviews.

occupied by the cap is determined bythe trajectory of the robot and the location of the contact relative to the robot’s outer surface.When the gripper arm is down, then the cap(s) that were in range of the front sensors are tested todetermine whether they are within range of the gripper’s object sensor, or subject to collisionwith some part of the arm. The coordinates of the lowered arm are defined by a small set ofpoints. An overlap test involving the cap(s) and these points is done in the same manner de-scribed above using built-in Java 2DGraphics methods. Caps that are involved in a collision are reposi-tioned using a technique similar to one employed during collisions with the robot’s body; depending onthe trajectory of the robot and the point
