Fall 1998, the College of Engineering at the University of Oklahoma (OU) hasimplemented a Laptop Program, which extends the use of electronic media for enhancing theengineering education. Starting from Fall 1998, the program requires every freshmanengineering student to own a laptop. Over the next 4 years, all the undergraduate courses will betaught with the help of a laptop computer. A radio-frequency (RF) wireless network connectionis one of the services provided by the school of engineering in conjunction with the laptopprogram. This allows the students and faculty to be connected to the network, both the Internetand OU’s local area network. This program greatly encourages research in the use of electronicmedia and Internet for creating a

During this training phasethe connecting weights are adjusted such that the difference between the network output, which isan indicator of the state of the test piece, and the desired output are reduced. This weightadjustment gives the network a memory of the correlation between the trace characteristics andthe corresponding state of the test piece. After a suitable training period, the neural networkshould be tested with features from a different test piece, much as one would test aninexperienced operator after training.

We then met frequently to discuss and refine these codes, which contributed tothe development of the study’s codebook. Second, we coded the remaining data set in pairs andanalyzed patterns within and across coded excerpts. Through a collective and collaborativediscussion, the research team iteratively created emergent themes. These discussions alsogrounded the data analysis team in the participants’ narratives, which in turn increased theconfirmability and trustworthiness of the study’s findings.
