Much of the focus has been onteaching “across the spectrum” [Felder1], meaning that teaching formats must be designed tospan the spectrum of student learning orientations. A variety of techniques have been developedto categorize learning styles, including the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) [Jung, Keirsey,McCaulley1] and, more recently, the VARK (Visual, Auditory, Read/Write, Kinesthetic) tool[Flemming, Bonwell]. Work in the MBTI arena has included a massive study providingpercentages of students with different MBTI types within specific engineering disciplines[McCaulley2].

While minor changes can be made based on theclass character, the answers to these questions and more should be made prior to the start of thesemester and discussed with the student during the first week of class. In most cases, the answerto all of these questions for chemical engineering students should be YES. Not only are activelearning activities important for promoting student learning, recent results of profiling studentlearning preferences have indicated that the majority of chemical engineering students learnmore effectively by working problems themselves.

As a result, employers are looking for college graduates who knowhow to work on a team and how to complete projects in a timely manner. Many organizations--particularly small and medium-sized firms--can't wait a year or so for recent college graduates tomake a contribution; they need to hire graduates who can quickly make a positive impact.Responding to this need, New Mexico State University (NMSU) launched its ManufacturingEngineering & Management Program in 1994.
