Session Number Using an Assessment Test to Identify Important Aspects of Education Paul M. Santi, Ryan J. Kowalski Department of Geology and Geological Engineering, Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO 80401Introduction Quite often, in addition to teaching technical skills, we must teach some abstract andintangible skills. In the field of geological engineering, one of these skills is the ability to usegeologic information to design optimal subsurface investigations of sites for foundations,chemical contamination, or geologic hazards. In order to teach this skill, a computer
approaches toteaching a course in structural steel design as well. The limits of integrating technology intoclassroom teaching are teacher-dependent, and every teacher must use what he/she feels mostappropriate for the learning outcomes. Since the Industrial Revolution, science and technologyhave shaped the world in fundamental ways.1 Integration of currently-available educationaltechnologies in the classroom can similarly affect the student learning in the most fundamentalway.Integrating Educational Technologies in TeachingApollinaire, as quoted by Elliot W. Eisner in Educational Researcher (August-September, 1997): “Come to the edge,” he said. They Said, “We are afraid.” “Come to the edge,” he said. They came. He
