hands-on aspects of engineering. Our challenge as engineering educators is toreach these students in order to prepare them for their future careers as engineers in society.Students will likely encounter many different teaching styles during their academic careers, andthis variety generally adds to their overall educational experience. However, if given a choice,most students would select instructors that use an interactive teaching style. Pomales-Garcia andLiu (2007) found, in a survey of 47 University of Michigan undergraduate engineering students(30 males, 17 females), that students most preferred interactive teaching that included examples,demonstrations, stories, websites, visual displays, group work, competitions and oralpresentations

These changes are also applied to traditional undergraduatestudents for getting an engineering job when they graduate. Traditional training of future manufacturing engineers is more concentrated on classroomlectures. It resulted in a more one-way communication environment---professors feedinformation to the students.
