The seven elements of quality in work-based learning experiences are asfollows [5]:1-Technical competence-based on both industry and academic standards to provide the bestlearning environment for students.2-Breadth-the wide range of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and characteristic of the industry orbusiness such as planning, management, finance, technology, technical skills, labor issues,community issues, health and safety, personnel habits, etc.3-Personal and social competence such as: developing team building

This contention centers on the concern of accountability andintegrity, terms commonly seen in information security applications. It is therefore natural totreat the design and use of an online academy as a study in information security. That is theapproach that will be taken in this paper. The areas of concern will be detailed in the course of awalkthrough of the use of an online academy as either a standalone academic environment or asa supplement to face-to-face classrooms.

The benefits are drawn from an enhanced flexibility inmanipulating the knowledge to evaluate alternatives using real visual sections of videos toeffectively convey the integrated processes among disciplines. Example tasks include theselection from several compiled choices, viewing, composing, and decomposing cases. Thisflexible user-technology interaction furnishes direct visual understanding and integration ofseveral engineering concepts in the processes. Use of the case-based system will allow (1)integrated teaching with other educators; (2) enhanced students understanding and visualizationof the concepts involved; and

Identification of one’s own beliefs about being a successfulteam member as well as establishment of initial team bonds was prominent. As goals areclarified and team leaders emerge, teams begin to form rules, divide labor, and establish linesof communication

Can enough faculty members be recruited who are willing to offer service-learning in their required courses to meet the goal of one S-L course every semester for every student? 2. Will a significant number of students be open to doing S-L projects? 3.

evaluated after three years.IntroductionCentral Washington University (CWU) is a state-supported university that serves approximately8,000 students, including graduate students. In the Industrial and Engineering Technologydepartment, there are eight majors offered to students. Among these choices are MechanicalEngineering Technology, Flight Technology and Construction Management. In all of theseprograms, women are underrepresented. It became important to work towards a more diversecomposition of students. The ACE Academy evolved from this necessity.In the summer of 2004, 23 girls (age 13-16) were accepted at the workshop. Next year, the campwill be expanded to 36. The academy begins on a Friday afternoon with girls getting to knoweach other and
