One only has tovisit the computer section of the local bookstore and observe the rows of 2-3 inch thick books oneach of the technologies. If each of the selected technologies were covered in depth severalsemesters would be involved. In addition, this would be somewhat of an overkill in relation tothe goal of

Our engineering collegecontinues to work diligently to improve retention of freshmen students, paying particular attention to at-risk students, and we have found that math performance is closely related to retention [2].
