Although approximately 50% of participantswere girls, boys tried to participate most actively in experimental activities. Being sensitive aboutthese issues, I tried very hard to get girls involved. To my surprise, I have discovered that motherswho accompany children to our school have often shown more interest in experiments thanstudents. Comments like: "I never knew that this works this way", "this is so interesting", "they(students) do not know what they are getting; I wish we had learned this when we were in school"are common.Also, as a mother of two children

There are many means to do this including standardized tests suchas the GRE or FE examination, interviews with students and/or employers, major research papersand projects, and locally developed essay tests [1]. Another method that the Messiah CollegeEngineering Department has begun to explore is the use of portfolios.

For example, Web-4M is very effective ina hybrid class that not only meets in a traditional, time-bound classroom but also requires thestudents to take part in a given amount of on-line synchronous discussions, problem-solvingsessions, group homework, or to view presentations. A key component of making these newteaching paradigms work effectively is a tightly integrated distance education delivery system thatallows for storage and retrieval of materials presented in a synchronous forum, thusaccommodating absenteeism and providing a means for student review. The following sections willdiscuss some of the features of Web-4M, explain how the synchronous and asynchronous tools areintegrated and give an example of how
