I will focus in particular on the trade-off between the level of detail providedby each approach and ability of engineering technology students to comprehend it. I will thenintroduce an analogy: a marathon footrace, which exhibits dispersion very dramatically. Finally,I will exploit this analogy to develop a straightforward

redevelopment of theCET-2030 class as it was returned to the program’s curriculum.Course Development, Objectives and Philosophies After progressing through several academic years under the semester system, the CETprogram administrators found an area within the project management curriculum focus tocombine two classes into one offering. This opened up the space and allowed the return of theConstruction Graphics course, paving the way for the revamped approach to the dormant course. The CET-2030 class is a sophomore year, spring semester offering. The class carrieswith it the prerequisite of the program’s freshman level Architectural Graphics class (CET-1100)in which students learn basic graphical presentation while gaining an understanding

A set of software tools hasbeen developed to design, deliver, and evaluate course material through the Internet. Thesoftware tools also provide a means of relating material between different courses to promoteconceptual learning within and between courses. As such, these tools employ the concepts ofcurriculum integration and are termed the Integrated Curriculum Delivery System. Thus, byintegrating the knowledge content of distinct courses into a unified whole, the IntegratedCurriculum Delivery System seeks to provide information to educators and students in a mannerthat will support deeper conceptual

Some of the differences inprogram development have hindered widespread recognition of the field.

For their part, emotions serveas the lens by which HC is received and recognized. Emotions are considered a vital mediator toprocesses like decision-making [2]. These two are the main factors that are relevant for thispaper. Research suggests that emotions profoundly impact the way that both teachers andstudents engage, their personal development, and their academic outcomes [3]. There is areciprocal relationship between the emotional state of the teachers and students wherebyteachers’ emotions are mirrored by the students—if a teacher shows excitement

With the rapidly advancing capabilities of computing hardware, it is now possible to embed computing capabilities in virtually all manufactured devices. Consequently, there is an increased demand for professionals trained to develop embedded electronic systems. However, the design and implementation of such systems requires a broad knowledge in areas traditionally not covered in any one discipline. This paper discusses the development of an interdisciplinary curriculum on real-time embedded systems, and the resulting courses that enable students to develop high assurance, state-of-the-art, real-time
