AC 2010-2155: HANDS-ON NUCLEAR ENGINEERING EDUCATION – ABLENDED APPROACHMarie-Pierre Huguet, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Marie-Pierre Huguet has been a course developer at Rensselaer since 2001. As such, she has been providing support and guidance in instructional design and instructional technologies to Rensselaer faculty who either seek to integrate emerging technologies into their face-to-face classroom, or teach Web-based or blended/hybrid courses. Dr. Huguet received her Ph. D. in Curriculum and Instruction at the University at Albany. For the past eight years, both at Rensselaer and SUNY Albany, she has been involved in several research projects that have looked at the
main features of PBL in this way: · Learning is student centered, i.e., students make choices about how and what they want to learn. · Learning occurs in small student groups and promotes collaborative learning. · Teachers are facilitators or guides or coaches. · Problems form the organizing focus and stimulus for learning. · Problems are a vehicle for the development of authentic problem-solving skills. · New information is acquired through self-directed learning. 7 Page 7.940.2 Proceedings of the 2002 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference & Exposition Copyright Ó 2002, American

An organizationunder the umbrella of the Ministry of Higher Education in close collaboration with theMinistry of Education should be created to oversee all technical education activities withinthe government structure in Kabul and throughout the provinces. Close collaborationbetween all stakeholders, i.e., government and non-government organizations, is requiredto work for a
“engineering students have so much to learn before they can actuallystart practicing in the field, safely, that a formal rigorous engineering education at the Bachelorslevel is inescapable.”9 However, because competency in soft skills is also critical to theprofession, it is essential to look beyond textbook learning. A National Science Foundation studyrecommends engineering faculty engage students in “collaborative problem-solving, analysis,synthesis, critical thinking, reasoning, and reflections to real-world situations,” and that “newlearning approaches must be put to use that heighten practical learning and allow students todemonstrate the application of their studies to real-world situations.”10 Interestingly, theproposed revision to Criterion 3

On the other and, the recent changes tothe electric power industry through deregulation and restructuring have had considerable effectson power and energy engineering education, both domestically and internationally. In the light ofthese changes, there is even more imperative need for industry-academia collaboration in thepower and energy engineering education. While, the industry benefits by having access to alarger pool of qualified power engineers with practical experiences, the academia can increasethe revenue, decrease financial burden on the
