So, why haven’t these invaluable tools been prioritizedfor secondary and post-secondary learners? That is a good question. Lean practices encompasspractical problem-solving, critical thinking, collaboration, personal life efficiency, careerreadiness, sustainability, adaptability, life skills, business concepts, troubleshooting, andinnovation. Not only are these tools useful in industry applications, but these skills are also vitalto prepare students both

committee first met on July 31,2002 and will meet again in 2003. Once the draft standards have been completed they will begiven to SBEC for review and approval. Certification tests will then be developed withimplementation planned for fall 2005.Committee membership consisted of K-12 educators, engineering educators, and practicingengineers. The biggest hurdle faced by the committee was reaching a common understanding ofwhat engineering is and is not. The committee agreed that engineering is not the same asmathematics or science, not applied mathematics and science, and not technology. A consensuswas reached to use the engineering method, i.e., synthesis/design, as the basis of the standards.ABET EC2000 accreditation criteria also influence the

systematic involvement of students in the LTT experience can transform themfrom being passive recipients into active learners thus preparing them for a life-long self-learningexperience.IntroductionTraditional engineering education relies heavily on a passive classroom lecture approach.Studies1,2 have shown that students learn much better when active learning strategies are used. Inthe conventional learning setting many students, especially incoming freshmen, feel left out ofthe process and are not able to reach their true potential. In light of this, we believe that a majorshift in the current educational mode is essential, whether it is mandated from outside or emergesfrom inside. Though the overall philosophy of fostering an active learning
--is just as important for teachers as it is for students. Effective teaching involves knowing“how to learn.” By recognizing and understanding different learning styles, attitudes,motivations and by evaluating and analyzing results in the classroom, teachers can also“learn” and “learn how to teach”. Sharing what we learn as teachers, collaborating onpedagogical innovations, and learning from each other can be one vital step in teachingour students the most important soft skill – recognizing the wisdom of those whoseexperience is different than our own.REFERENCESCamuti, Paul A.
