By bringing hands-on programming exercises to students in classesin which they are already interested and enrolled, we aim to demystify programming, helpstudents better understand the relevance of programming to their chosen discipline, and informtheir future educational and career choices.To encourage adoption of APEX materials by biology and statistics instructors, our team activelyrecruits, trains, and supports instructors from community colleges across the state.

Department of Education. The goal of this project is to improve technology education. The mechanism is to developinteresting, team-based, hands-on educational modules that can be incorporated into existing courses. Thefocus is on associate degree programs in Engineering Technology, but a major thrust also goes towardsecondary school programs that might lead into associate degrees, and many of the modules could apply aswell to four-year engineering and technology programs. Four independent teams began late in 1994 to develop the modules that were the de] iverable itemsfor this grant. Theoretically, each team could have representation from seven different viewpoints: bothfaculty and students from the university, the high school and the

applyingdomain knowledge. Nickols (2012) states that choosing the right problem solving approach makes adifference. He identifies three different problem solving tasks: repair, improve, and engineer. Stojcevski(2005) mentions that problem solving is a special kind of skill to learn. Benjamins et al. (1995), states thata problem-solving method cannot directly be applied because of the existence of a gap between, on theone hand, a problem-solving method and the domain knowledge it uses, and, on the other hand, aproblem-solving method and the goal that it is supposed to achieve. He distinguished two types ofassumptions that are able to bridge the gap: one type of assumption is used to strengthen a problem-solving method, and the other to weaken the goal to

The mathematics became "transparent" and the underlying physical structuresbecame visible. (William L. Burke, Applied Differential Geometry, Cambridge University Press,1985)Proponents point out that forms provide additional insight into the nature of electromagnetics, simplifyderivations, and provide notational compactness. If differential forms are as beneficial as proponents claim, why have they not come into morewidespread use in electrical engineering electromagnetics? One opinion is expressed by Georges A.Deschamps: The differential forms approach has not yet had any
