The Traditional Approach Traditionally, manufacturing engineering and technology courses have been taughtpresenting materials in a sequential manner. these are numerous educational materialsfrom which to select and most instructors were themselves taught in this fashion. theadvantages of this approach are the ability to cover a large amount of material in arelative short period of time and to be sure that a comprehensive approach to coverageis possible. However, the limitations to this traditional approach are many. For example,this approach does not focus on products, which to a large degree is what manufacturingis about. It is left up to the student integrate the various pieces to see how they fittogether. This approach does not

A key technique to retaining new faculty is thementoring process. One study showed that 15 percent of faculty without excellentmentoring left campus early by their own choice or not, but none with effectivementoring left for either reason (2) (Gray 2007 as cited in Boice 2000, p. 246).Many academic institutions have implemented various mentoring programs.
