(complete surface removal) or surface cleaning, some are known to be anisotropic suitable forprecision microstructure manufacturing. For instance, KOH is a chemical compound that attackssilicon, producing characteristic anisotropic V-etch, with sidewalls that form a 54.7° angle withthe surface (35.3° from the normal). This etch process is independent of the doping concentrationof As, P and Sb. For B, the <110> etch rate drops quickly at high doping concentrations though.Such precision V-etch by selective wet etching is the foundation of the bulk micromachining. The two key capabilities that lead bulk micromachining to become a viable technology inMEMS are: (1) Anisotropic etchants of Si, such as ethylene-diamine and pyrocatechol (EDP

Each of these objectives helped formulate the strategies used to present projectmanagement topics in both active and reflective learning methods. The objectives that wereapplied included: a. demonstrate an appropriate mastery of the knowledge, techniques, skills, and modern tools of their discipline, b. apply current knowledge and adapt to emerging applications

Education, 2006 Assessment and Evaluation of Engineering Technology ProgramsAbstractIn order to execute a continuous improvement plan in compliance with the TAC/ABETTechnology Criteria 2000 (TC2K), engineering technology programs face the challenge ofoutcomes-based assessment followed by evaluation, and implementation of improvementmeasures. Multiple constituencies are to be involved in the process, as the TC2K stipulate use ofmultiple assessment tools and measures for (a) the program outcomes, i.e., knowledge andcapabilities of students at the time of graduation and (b) the program objectives, i.e., theexpected accomplishments of graduates during the first few years after graduation.Effective assessment tools provide the information needed

To exclude a force, even onethat appears to be irrelevant, is to surrender an important opportunity for the instructor tocultivate the complete understanding of the problem at hand.Next, we found that nearly all textbooks frequently exclude units, especially in intermediatecalculations, although usually they are attached to the final answer (see Appendix B, Figure B3).Repetitious inclusion of the units, accompanied by emphatic comments, provides a valuableopportunity for the educator to lead the students to realize that units reveal insights and specialproperties of the underlying mechanics.

There is in general no student involvement (in some of IPSec code forexample).WEPWEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), a part of IEEE 802.11 protocols, is a wireless protocol thatpeople know well its vulnerability. The reason is due to that the initialization vectors areencrypted using the XOR (exclusive or) operation. Though XOR can scramble the bits well, it iseasy to break since if C = A XOR B, then A = C XOR B from elementary Boolean algebra. As aconsequence, WEP is subject to the so called known plaintext attack.The coverage of WEP before was limited to the explanation of its vulnerability (stage 1). It canbe enhanced as a demonstration in the class (or
