additional support information. Often this can be retrieved from a data base. Therefore, creative educational use of an environmental software package requires the support of case studies and databases. The same is true for case study or database modules. When students are assigned a case study problem, they are expected to explore creative solutions. Often this requires gathering additional information (e.g. database application) and conducting engineering analysis (i.e. software use). The interactions among these areas are illustrated in Figure 1.2. There was reasonable agreement that “Databases” did not require the intensity of development that software or case studies required. Databases are important, but once created

Prior to enteringengineering school, many students stated they had a parent who kept the family computerupdated or no one in the family ever worried about updates and backups. As technologyadoption grows in personal, professional, and educational use, the students need a better handleon the available technologies and what are involved in using and maintaining said technologies.Some incoming students have been more exposed to technology than others by their parents, buteven these students need some help in some technology pursuits.

In fact, the semantic inconsistencies in the report were glaring. Forexample, KSA 14: Teamwork skills and ability to function on multidisciplinary teams(ability) was called an ability. Yet the term skills was used inclusively inside thedescription. This crossover carried on to other KSAs, such as KSA 18: Ability to usenew technology and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice (skill),and KSA 31: Ability to deal with ambiguity and complexity (skill).The point of this criticism is not to demand absolute consistency.
