Understandingthese sources can help prevent or resolve difficulties. First, with unsuccessful writers, weoften discover that the writing process is "back loaded." The discussion and research hasgone forward, but very little has been written until close to the end of the process. Sincearticulation and thinking are interdependent, this often means that

Therefore, a user-friendlyoperation manual, called ARM (Augmented Reality Manual) is developed to avoid guestimatesand provide needed assistance in a timely manner during critical times.The ARM is a conceptual framework generated by the researchers to systematically put evidence-based practice processes into operation. The application identifies image targets to transform twodimensional still image into a more practical augmented video tutorial. Using this inquiry, pretestand posttest analyses are summarized into a meaningful statement and applied in disaster trainingand translation of the teaching method to STEM education.

There have been several reportson the need to reform engineering and computer science education6,7, as well as reports on thetransformative power of early curriculum redesign efforts in this field8. As part of thistransformation, the gap between teaching methods and practitioner’s skills can be addressed, atleast in part, through new teaching models such as flipped classrooms9,10 and increasedacademic partnerships (the latter have also been shown to help foster interdisciplinaryeducation).In this paper, we discuss a new undergraduate

Portfolio preparation causesstudents to think more about academic progress and planning, as well as what they would like todo as a career. The employment portfolio also gives an advantage in employment interviews.One senior engineering student impressed an interviewer so much with her portfolio that she wasoffered a job on the spot.

Methods such as the rote-repetition used almostexclusively in the past, as well as the Socratic-method, are proven approaches to teaching andlearning. Though disagreement may exist amongst practitioners and theoreticians as to whichapproach may be more effective, the disagreements fall into the realm of preference and/or fit(what is best for this or that type of material and delivery system as opposed to another). Thebreaking up of learning material into small chunks (chunking of information) is one suchmethod. The

Hence, many universities and colleges have developed and aredeveloping methods to expose their students to international culture, business and engineeringpractices. Traditional methods involve exchanges of students and/or faculty between a U. S.institution and a foreign one. Types of exchange include: the exchange of graduate orundergraduate students with another institution for part of their education; the exchange ofgraduate students for research efforts; and, the exchange of faculty for purposes of research orteaching.
