to fulfill our educational objectives, my personal opinion is thatour effort should be directed towards cultivating and increasing the ability ofstudents to think. That the ability to think is more important than the simpletransfer of knowledge is obvious: Even if a student learns everything by the timethe B.S. degree is awarded, a short time after graduation that engineeringprofessional (a) will have to obtain new knowledge, probably on their own (b) it is very probable that a few years after graduation, the young engineer will be the head of a group that involves persons from various disciplines; in that capacity simple, dry knowledge of facts will not be at all helpful; the ability to think, however, will be
