However, there is evidenceto suggest that too many practicing engineers are without suitable training in the interpretationand application of safety codes, particularly with respect to machine guarding.

through the use of a value tree. In such an application, each branch in the treereflects the potential outcomes of decisions made as the project progresses. Consequently, onepath through the value tree gives the greatest benefit. The trick to obtaining this benefit is tomodify the probability of a desirable outcome at each stage in the project. Today, the best meansof improving outcome probability is found in forecasts created via modeling and simulationtechnology. In fact, for the case study presented here, the amount of improvement is calculatedto be $1.11 Billion for the project’s execution.Through an in-depth case study, this paper justifies the use of modeling and simulation as anintegrated technology for project controls education.

Oneway to alleviate frustration and to avoid reinventing wheels is to use the Manufacturing andEngineering Technologies Education Clearinghouse (METEC). METEC serves as a one stopshop for technology educators in general, and new educators in particular.METEC’s searchable electronic database provides resources pertinent to a broad range ofengineering technologies. Among the vetted materials in the database are course and programoutlines, descriptions of best practices, simulations, texts, activities, videos, PowerPointpresentations, etc. The clearinghouse materials are obtained from numerous sources such asNSF centers and projects, other academic institutions

the ever-increasing role of computing reflects those disparities. One facet of thesolution is to broaden the computing education research corpus to include experiences of allstudents, particularly those from marginalized groups, and to adopt best practices for high-qualityresearch.Research Question: What gaps related to participants in computing education research studiesexist? How might these contribute to the lack of equity in high school computing?Methodology: Using a curated data set of research articles focused on K-12 computing education,we analyzed articles that included high school students as study participants (n = 231) todetermine which dimensions of high quality and/or equity-enabling research were included.Results: The yearly

engineeringproblem and present a solution for the optimization of thermal energy storage for use incogeneration systems applications but it also identifies the importance of one-on-onefaculty –student research and it how excel software can overcome the need for higher-level mathematics. The problem is a familiar one to the engineers who must determinethe optimum size of a thermal storage system that is not too large or too small for acustomer’s thermal demand while matching it with the correct cogeneration system size(kwe). The problem’s solution however becomes an opportunity to enlist the help of anundergraduate student to help solve a fairly complicated problem. This pedagogy is seenas critical and necessary to the education of the engineering technology
