IEEE Std 802.1 ≠ IEEE 11073∀Standards for Health InformaticsIn October 2008, the SEC conducted a Standards Education survey of just over 1,000 IEEEmembers. The survey included practicing engineers from all regions of the world in technicalsectors such as power, computers, software, and communications. Seventy-five percent ofrespondents indicated that technical standards were important to very important in their technicalfields. Twenty-two percent indicated that they learned to apply technical standards at theiruniversity, while the majority reported that they learned from a mentor while working on aspecific project that required the use of a particular standard or standards, or were self-taught.Conclusions and RecommendationsIn this

Session 1332 Agents for Change in Engineering Education W. A. Hornfeck, J. F. Greco, W. D. Jemison, I. I. Jouny Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Lafayette CollegeAbstractThe engineering profession as a whole is struggling to describe and define itself. Thisdilemma is caused by the rapid changes in technology and significant market changestaking place in many major industries that seek to employ entry-level engineers. Forcolleges and universities, the new latitude associated with ABET’s Engineering Criteria2000 forces an introspective view of our profession. This paper describes thetechnological, professional, and
continuous activity throughout thecurriculum.The benefits of educative assessment for enhancing student learning are obvious. Its integrationin engineering curricula, however, is impractical because of the tremendous time requirementsthat it imposes on the faculty, the size of the student population, and the general unwillingness ofstudents to expose their misconceptions to their peers and instructors alike. These obstacles canbe overcome by developing and making available to students software tools that supportautomated educative self-assessment. Such tools have the potential to qualitatively affect studentlearning without draining school resources in the process.This paper examines a self-assessment system for students who are learning to

tocollect and fit data and compare it to a theoretical model. This typically involves usingcomputerized data acquisition followed by data analysis using software such as spreadsheets orMathCAD.UI450 provides the culminating major design experience based on the knowledge and skillsacquired in earlier technical course work called for in Criterion 4. In addition, it directlyconnects the liberal education component of our curriculum (the USP) to the technical content ofthe curriculum because it requires students to have completed most of the core of the USP andthen use that background in this capstone experience course. This course also dispels the notioncommonly held by incoming freshmen that they are studying engineering or physics becausethey like

Students must makeuse of mathematical software such as a spreadsheet or Mathcad for most of these comparisons.This is done for each experiment in their lab journals, for both of their formal written reports,and for both of their oral presentations. These reports must also effectively communicate theirwork on each experiment. Finally, as for evaluation of student performance, the grade for the labjournals and written reports is partly determined by the extent to which the results are properlycompared to theory and discussed.
