theinterdisciplinary nature of those processes.IntroductionIn a fast changing industrial environment, educational laboratory activities need to keep pacewith new and emerging technologies that are implemented, in order to provide students with therequired skills consistent with the newest technologies available. Real life industrial settings areoften too expensive and complex to implement at laboratory level. The fundamental challengingproblems in manufacturing education are related to: (a) Improving the student–instructionaltechnologies interface to incorporate the required learning tools; (b) Improving teaching andlearning effectiveness. On the other hand, the advancement of increasing efficiency and reducingthe cost of manufacturing is contingent on

from the perspective ofthe graduate students who participated in the program. This exploration draws on a new theoretical framework that integrates possible-selvestheory and self-determination theory1. Using key indicators of this framework, we analyzed blogentries that the two graduate students, or the fellows, wrote while they participated in theprogram. We sought to address the following question: How did the fellowship experience influence the fellows’ conceptions of (a) their possible selves as part of the future professoriate, and (b) how they would reach their professional goals? The following paper is written from multiple perspectives and thus represents multiplevoices. The background and framework

engineering(CEE) works is important to many civil and environmental engineers. Geotechnical and geo-environmental engineers in particular must be able to understand and apply various aspects of thegeological sciences in their practice, but many other types of engineers also need to be confidentin understanding and applying findings of geologists with respect to their projects. This includesmanaging civil or environmental aspects of foundation systems, tunneling, mining, constructionmaterials, excavation, ground water, contaminant transport, seismicity, and mass movement,among many other applications.Because of the importance of geological science to civil and environmental engineers, it is notunusual for some engineering programs to require a course

Though thiswritten reflection did not improve procedural knowledge, “[b]y having student explain theirmathematical solutions, students can make links between problem-solving procedures and courseconcepts. Writing may also be used to promote reflection, which can result in metacognitivethinking and adaptive problem solving”3. These written process descriptions process showed“significant gains in conceptual understanding”1.

Three sets were used in the following manner: a) ventilation across thekitchen/living area, b) ventilation through the two bedrooms, and c) high/low ventilation in thebathroom area. In order to meet the ASHRAE residential ventilation standards, the manufacturermodified the systems so that their highest speed air flow rate was approximately 10% higher thanthe European factory settings. The continuous movement of cross ventilation air assisted thedistribution of conditioned air within the building envelope, while helping to control bathroomand kitchen related humidity.
