the technical work of engineers is accomplished. It also stressesthe importance of oral and written communications skills, multidisciplinary teamwork,and creativity in engineering. Emphasis is on a balanced perspective incorporatingcontextual (non-technical) factors, which are sometimes more critical than analyticalskills in determining the success of the modern engineer. Educational Research has demonstrated the importance of seeing the bigpicture for effective learning. Students learn best when they can integrate new materialinto a preexisting context of understanding.

component of engineering education,methods of providing undergraduate students with a significant design experience varywidely among disciplines and faculty. Dunn-Rankin, et. al.[1] state the "design training,though somewhat ill-defined, is crucial to enable graduating engineers to contribute intoday’s competitive manufacturing environment." A key aspect of this dilemma is thatdesign practices vary by discipline and project criteria. In surveying 47 companies ontheir priorities in manufacturing engineering education, Mason [2] notes that "theimportance of hands-on experience emphasized by the survey is a break from atraditional engineering curriculum."At the same time, it is recognized that workplace experience is a key factor in enabling

Additionally, interactions with the Deaf student were notparticularly difficult, indicating the ease of mixing Deaf and traditional students in anacademic setting. Finally, students perceive that the Deaf student has a disadvantage inlearning the same material, and would be aided with more written material provided bythe professor.

Utilizing a stretch sensing material, the onset of a loop during an endoscopic procedure was accurately determined. The effectiveness of each configuration in detecting the formation of a loop is studied. This loop detecting device was designed in a way that it can be attached to an endoscope without significantly increasing the diameter of the endoscopic tubing. Once a loop is formed, the device will send a warning signal so the doctor who performs the endoscopic procedure can adjust his or her operation to avoid harming the patient.
