Using his own “on-line” students as a laboratory, Dr.Summers was able to improve their performance and success by recording streaming lectures of keylearning concepts, and developing circuit design trainers and experiments that his students could useanywhere to build and test each learned concept. The teaching packages produced and tested by Dr.Summers included state of the art multimedia CD ROM text books, recordings of streaming white boardlectures on each learning concept, laboratory circuit design trainers, laboratory parts kits, partsdescriptions and documentation, and CD ROM laboratory

The success of the project involves a strongsystems engineering effort to integrate all the individual components, to design the overallsystem, to consider the complete life cycle, and to coordinate and oversee the project and itsteam members. The team generally shares the systems engineering responsibility as they are allinvolved in the higher level decisions that need to be made.

Not only is it moreefficient to double-load teaching time by combining design teaching with technical GIS trainingbut, perhaps surprisingly, it also appears to be more effective.
