intention of the study is togauge the effectiveness of various motivational strategies and teaching approaches and toidentify specific areas where faculty should focus their classroom efforts. Upon completion of atraditional 3-credit, 15 weeks, face-to-face engineering technology course; students completed a19 question survey where they evaluated the success of various learning opportunities that wereincorporated into that particular course. All survey participants had the same professor whoprovided each of the six courses included in the study with the same types of learningopportunities.

This is especially true in required undergraduate courses likeelectromagnetics (EM) that are heavily mathematics based.The integration of contemporary topics into EM courses is fundamentally different than the useof multimedia assets that help students visualize EM concepts that are quite mathematicallycomplex [1-3].

However, the thesisof this paper is that existing long-term trends are poorly understood and that, like the generalwho prepares to fight future wars based upon the last war, programs and students prepare for thefuture based on an extrapolation of the past. In a somewhat static environment the latter can be asuccessful strategy, but in the current much more dynamic environment being proactive is arequirement. Things have changed and they have changed in fundamental, often unexpected,ways. Exhortations to “do things better” and simplistic improvements of past approaches will beinadequate in the future.

This wouldinclude implementing in the curriculum new online tools for creating a business planwhich have the mobility and convenience that today’s generation of engineers havegrown to know and expect.

This balance with concrete experience is especially needed in “building-block”courses that create the foundation for advanced design courses.
