IntroductionNew engineering educators are presented with a bewildering array of opportunities as theyponder the paths to tenure through teaching, research and service. The contribution to tenuresuccess made by specific activities is not clear, yet new faculty must make decisions as to how toallocate their time. Service options may include multiple university and department committeesthat can absorb time and effort. Involvement in research centers and industry related projectsmay lead to research funding and publications but their contribution toward achieving tenure isnot clear.

In Cedarlogic, a logic high signal is shown in red, a logic low signal is shown in black,while high impedance is shown in green. As a result, when a project is working correctlystudents can actually watch all the internal signals within the computer “dancing” with the clock.Students can watch how the address buses change, how the data is latched, and how the ALUcalculates...

Since then, the lathe has been set aside andvirtually overlooked in order to make room for newer, more advanced machines.
