The environment which the mind is developed in plays the greatestrole in how the individual thinks. Psychological research has shown that an environment wherethere are a lot of resources and equal opportunity is present promotes greater use of thinkingabilities, therefore, expanding the individual’s knowledge and experiences [3].Effective Group-Based StructuralismA team is a group of people who work together interdependently and adaptively towards acommon goal.

growing aspect of technical education, research,and economic development in the United States. Concerns about U.S. competitiveness inmanufacturing continue to grow and the global economy continues to emphasize thecontributions of value-added manufacturing operations. Some of the important elements intoday’s changing economic environment are: demand for higher product quality; reduced timefrom concept to availability for sale; increased product output; and short product life cycles.The half-life of products has decreased to the point that 50% of product sales occur within threeyears of initial design. These factors have resulted in the absolute need for engineers who areprepared to initiate, design, plan for production, and control the manufacture
