schema. Acommonly used introductory approach is to identify entities and processes, make a guess at thetables, and check the tables to make sure that they are in normal form. Repeatedly checking andchanging the tables that have a poor initial design can be very laborious. This section presentsprocedures for rapidly teaching students how to obtain a good initial design and techniques forimproving that design that go beyond checking normal forms.

There is an audiocomponent and a video component. ‘The lecture’ in distance learning courses is almost alwaysdelivered by text material, that is, by reading. It may be the ‘notes’ of the instructor. It may be asummary of the available literature, or pertinent information. It may simply be the textbookreading assignment for the course, in which case there is no lecture component and the ‘class’ Page 7.395.1 “Proceedings of the 2002 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference & Exposition Copyright Ó 2002, American Society for

The Influence of the “Cultural Gap” in University-Industry CollaborationA major difficulty with regard to the successful and effective management of university-industry collaboration, is the influence of the perceived “cultural gap” between academia andindustry and the detrimental effects that can result 7-15:· The academic culture of publishing research results in the open literature, versus a typical desire by industry to maintain data as proprietary in order to establish competitive advantage.· A considerable difference in priorities is

” to the timeline for the project activities. This schedule will be one of the twokey driving forces, the other being cost, to the project and its success. The team discusses the importance ofmonitoring and updating the schedule to keep it on track.Value EngineeringBecause owners change their minds, other materials become available, or someone feels that there may be abetter process, the value engineering process is discussed. The team receives a memo from the owner requestingthe team to perform value engineering on a specific item. The team will define the item and its use, analyze thevalue of the item, review possible alternate options, and submit its review and recommendation. The teambecomes aware of what the word “value” means and that
