These innovations have also created a need for a highly skilled and adaptable workforce,yet industry is having a difficult time in their search for highly qualified US candidates. Fromprivate firms to public officials and economic analysts to educators, many acknowledge the needto update training and education to better prepare our future workforce.This work introduces a new educational model, Pathways in Technology Early College HighSchool (P-TECH), as a tool to modernize traditional education and align the workforcedevelopment to meet the challenges introduced by nanotechnology-driven industries.

Thetraditional approach reflects a prescribed product-driven approach rather than a solution-driven approach. A product-driven approach is the common practice in Ireland design-basedsuite of subjects at second level, where the focus is on the manufacture or realisation of aprescribed product. Data from another study by the author involving undergraduate studentsof technology education prior experience in project work reflects the dominance of this adhoc approach with 78% indicating an output-driven approach and 22% indicating a solution-driven approach.

to change. Curry [7] makes clear that critique can in fact foreclose action, by preserving the institutions (and intellectual traditions) that reward the critical project; this project of critique, and the career-building it facilities, we think, are precisely the second- university’s manifestations of engineering education research. When I imagine that as a doubter I somehow stand outside the second university, outside of the STEM establishment in its educational and workforce expressions, I mistake the nature of my life circumstances, my day-to-day security. There are few “outsides” for the tenured academic, and in particular, wherever I, the cis-gendered, abled, white, U.S.-born tenured

As advanced economies continue to dominatesemiconductor production, developing regions, such as Latin America and the Caribbean, have a uniqueopportunity to enhance their capabilities in research, development, innovation, and entrepreneurship(R&D+i+e).Universities must act as catalysts for this transformation by adapting their educational and researchmodels to the needs of a knowledge-driven economy and aligning with the demands of key industrialsectors [16], [17]. Consequently, the application of the proposed index to the semiconductor and chipssector is presented, focusing specifically on Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).Before delving into the index, it is essential to understand the

addition, the ability to work in Page 5.687.1supportive groups on problems, see for example Astin (1987) and Johnson and Johnson (1989)can be a significant catalyst for improved learning.In this paper, we are motivated by the fact that while active and cooperative learning has beenstudied extensively, and has been shown to be a beneficial teaching technique, its wide spreadadoption throughout the Industrial Engineering curriculum has been limited. Our goal is topresent background information on active and cooperative learning techniques and to discusswhy Industrial Engineering educators should incorporate these techniques into their classrooms.In

According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers(NACE), there is a slightly positive outlook on overall projections for hiring of new collegegraduates. (NACE’s annual Job Outlook is a forecast of the job market for new graduates basedon a survey of the organization’s employer members. The 2004 fall edition of the survey isbased on responses from 360 members representing service sector employers, manufacturers,government and nonprofit employers, and other employers.) Results of the survey predict anoverall increase of 12.7

From a regionalperspective, the need for STEM graduates is critical to the future sustainability of thedevelopment of the South Texas region as a leading manufacturing hub for North America.IntroductionThe Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that for the years 2004-2014 the projected percentagedemand in the number of STEM occupations is almost twice the number of all

An outcome-based education (OBE) program generally includes the following activities[7]: Define educational objectives or goals what graduates are expected to attain within a few years of graduation. Define educational outcomes what the graduates would be able to do at the time of graduation. Identifying the stakeholders and their involvement in articulating and evaluating the education objectives and outcomes. A well-designed curriculum that will produce the desired objectives and outcomes. Mapping of the curricular courses how they contribute to the educational objectives and outcomes.
