Society for Engineering Education, 2008 Nationally Normed Exams for Outcomes Assessment of Engineering Technology Programs and Certification of Engineering Technology GraduatesAbstract:Four-year engineering programs often use the FE exam as a direct measure of outcomesfor EAC of ABET accreditation, but such use of the FE exam is not universallyappropriate for engineering technology programs. Many engineering technologyprograms are at the two-yr community college level, and graduates of those programs arenot typically eligible to sit for the FE exam. There are fifteen states or other jurisdictionsin the U.S. that do not allow graduates of 4-yr engineering technology programs to takethe F.E. Use of the FE exam

that personal computers, laptops, multimedia, and other information technologieshave been considered in non-technical courses. Handheld computers represent the latestevolution of personal computing. Their low price and portability offer opportunities for learningactivities both in the class and outside of the class. We are actively exploring theseopportunities. We believe that handheld computing has a place in computer science andinformation technology education, and we are attempting to determine to what extent they shouldbe used and how they should be used. This paper discusses our ideas for using handheldcomputers in college education, our experiences in introducing handheld computing in computer-related courses, and the results of our

. Primarily, these studies have focused on individual assessmentsof the web-based technologies. In contrast, this paper will provide a broad based assessment ofapplied web-based technology for higher education. This research was conducted via a surveycompleted by university and college faculty from numerous 4-year institutions. To gain aneffective assessment, eleven categories of web-based course delivery tools, such as chatroomsand digitized lectures, were included in this survey. In addition, for each course delivery toolcategory, course instructors were asked for the frequency of application of the particular tool andtheir perceptions of importance, efficiency of use, and instructor satisfaction for each tool.Accordingly, this paper presents the
