We are using 10 student interns for the project in Phase 1, maybe more in phase 2. We have used some IT engineering students for web design and assistance on software development from time to time. However, the interaction is very limited. Nothing in many years.

ethics andbehavior, interpersonal relationships, and teamwork. This area can be addressed with how particularcourses or modules within the course are designed. For example, the microprocessor course (EET 140) inTable 4 includes a problem-based project (Designing a Microprocessor Based Programmable Thermostat)that is structured to place the students in a teaming environment. Industrial Advisory Committees areoften a good source of ideas in this regard.Skills-Based Versus Knowledge-Based ProgramsA genuine concern of engineering technology educators is the fact that their programs are knowledge-based rather than skills-based. They are quick to dismiss any mention of skills standards as inappropriateto engineering technology. Indeed, some of the
