As a result, they are also becoming comfortable with the use of the Internet to carry outclass-related assignments and research. With numerous Internet terminals scattered across mostcampuses, it is very easy for the students to get access to web resources – often much easier thanit is for them to access conventional library resources. Students in
; unfortunately,few universities followed his lead.Recent Developments in Educational ScholarshipThe watershed year in the national development of the scholarship of teaching and learning isclearly 1990 when Ernest Boyer’s report, Scholarship Reconsidered4, was published. Boyercalled for four scholarships: discovery, application, integration, and teaching. In engineering thescholarships of discovery and application have long been major parts of technical research. Thescholarship of integration, which involves multidisciplinary technical research and a search forthe meaning of the research in a broad context, has become more important in recent years. Thegroundbreaking aspect of Boyer’s report involved his definition of the scholarship of teaching,which
such as modal analysis, structural control,system identification, experimental determination of transfer functions, and the behavior of non-linear dynamic systems. A series of illustrative experiments will be performed throughout thecourse in the earthquake engineering laboratory in which the students will utilize the materiallearned in class to analyze, identify, model, and control dynamic systems. In addition, these stu-dents would gain a thorough understanding of sensors, actuators, and data acquisition/analysisequipment and techniques.Undergraduate Research OpportunitiesIn addition to educating students through class-room activities, the establishment of the labora-tory stations offers numerous opportunities forundergraduate students to

’ and changingexpectations for ‘creative activities’. These two challenges can be delineated by the followingquestions: Will a doctorate degree be necessary for engineering technology faculty in the future for promotion and tenure in the university environment? Will applied research or pedagogical research be ‘good enough’?This paper addresses these two issues by analyzing a research study of current engineeringtechnology faculty hiring practices. Data are presented showing the change in faculty credentialsand faculty hiring practices over the last two years. Ultimately, discussion within the engineeringtechnology community must occur as engineering technology education continues to evolve andmove
