.” Students always show interest in things(proposals) that are related to personal benefits and/or career aspirations (i.e. what am I going todo with this?). Since most engineering curricula in the first 2 years are not necessarilyengineering or design based (ABET curriculum requirements call for one year combination ofbasic math and sciences plus a general education component), freshmen cornerstone classes suchas ours are a way to weave the larger story of being an engineer into the first year studentexperience and perhaps even help with learning gains (and motivation) in those courses.Teaching FrameworksA number of teaching frameworks for engineering courses have been described elsewhere16 andinclude: 1) Project-Based Learning (PBL)- projects

Fourteen major gap areas were identified [1].These include shortfalls in Communications Skills, Teamwork, Manufacturing Principles,Reliability Materials, and Quality etc. As a result, SME has directed its educational funding tocurricula that address some or all of the competency gaps, giving rise to many successfulprograms that have been the subject of papers at ASEE conferences.The authors believe that the power of the outcomes-focused techniques of SME have universalapplication in engineering education. Any discipline or curriculum can follow the same modusoperandi to identify competency gaps and then implement local and institutional changes tobridge these gaps.

The hollow, annular space of this circline lamp helps further heat dissipation. Thus thetemperature of the reflector does not get excessively hot. Lower wall temperature of the reflectoris expected to keep the ballast case temperature lower than otherwise would be possible. Thiswill consequently prolong the ballast life. It is simple, easy to install, and easy to access. Also itis easy to replace lamp, ballast, and other components.

The majority of these courses emphasize such topics as forging,rolling, casting, welding, and machining, among others. While these courses typicallyprovide an outstanding foundation in the particular subject area and process mechanics,many have not included any significant coverage in the areas of environmentalmanagement or industrial health and safety.
