Expanding the study to include more upper level courses may reveal that Blackboard is more helpful at one level than another. 2. Instructor factor: It was noted that even among the three investigators, there was some variation in the frequency and kind of information posted. In designing a new study, the frequency and kind of information to be posted by the instructor could be established in advance. 3.

For example, the microprocessor course (EET 140) inTable 4 includes a problem-based project (Designing a Microprocessor Based Programmable Thermostat)that is structured to place the students in a teaming environment. Industrial Advisory Committees areoften a good source of ideas in this regard.Skills-Based Versus Knowledge-Based ProgramsA genuine concern of engineering technology educators is the fact that their programs are knowledge-based rather than skills-based. They are quick to dismiss any mention of skills standards as inappropriateto engineering technology. Indeed, some of the

Anexternally imposed evaluation process will not be as effective as one developed and implementedby educators themselves.” John Prados
