Asthe quantity of information learned through visual tools multiplies, the ability to understand, evaluate, and producevisual representations has become
present a pathwayto discoveries that may include the cooling of electronics, nuclear reactors, and refrigerationsystems. The engineering education curriculum currently lacks the introduction to train first-yearstudents in the technologies associated with highly effective computer-based image processingtechniques. A variety of optical techniques are commonly used in engineering practices and allowthe researcher to identify the fundamental mechanisms that take place in a process. In this paper,a closer look into the importance of microscopic and video-based methods in engineering ispresented.Engineering applications often require precise data acquisition that allows the engineer to developa better understanding of the dynamics that contribute to a

, 2007 Advanced Placement Credit: A Double-Edged SwordAbstractRecent reports in the Chronicle of Higher Education and elsewhere have raised questions aboutwhat Advanced Placement (AP) courses and credits signify about the academic qualifications ofstudents who have taken AP classes and of those who have scored high enough on the AP examto qualify for college credit. Some research has questioned whether students who receive APcredit for introductory courses actually have appropriate knowledge to move into more advancedcourses as first-year students. But in an engineering curriculum packed with required classes,AP credit gives students a good opportunity to free up space in their schedules, enabling them totake lighter loads or to

influentialfactors that impact student retention, such as the method of instruction, classroom environmentalconditions, relationship dynamics between students and teachers, and assessment or testingpatterns. Past educational research and studies support the notion that student learning improveswith testing and that variables such as frequency of testing, feedback from testing, and delays inrecalling information have measurable impacts on student retention and performance [2, 3, 4].

Higher education contributes to the nation’s security, both through focusedresearch projects that develop hardware and technology and through the development ofeducational programs to produce a generation of leaders that can develop, articulate andimplement solutions to increasingly complex security problems. The availability of funding hasled to an extensive development of research capabilities within universities over the last fiveyears. However, the development of rigorous academic curricula and standards in the securityfield has lagged behind.Since September 2001

industry, such as senior design projects, give the students and thecompany advisor a chance to work side by side on a design or research and development project.This fosters understanding of common problems and helps extend the single thread of ethicseducation from the academia to the industry perspective.By the same token, speakers hosted jointly by business and university can provide a commonforum for discussion of ethical issues. In particular, there are numerous speakers available todiscuss engineering ethical education issues.

Department of Mechanical Engineering, Wichita State University 1845 Fairmount, Wichita, KS 67260-0133AbstractThe use of recyclable materials has been continuously rising worldwide due to the economic andtechnological developments. Without recycling these materials, they will get degraded orcorroded, and then completely destroyed by the nature, which will be a waste of resources andhuge environmental damage. In order to increase the academic and public attentions to recycling,we have developed a three credit hours recycling course “Recycling of Engineering Materials
