Are leaders of character. 2 Recognizing that the Department’s mission statement includes educating and inspiring, the civilengineering faculty have sought to develop their program appropriately along a set of commonlyaccepted educational taxonomies; that is, Bloom’s Taxonomy. These widely known taxonomiesare based on the seminar work of the 1950’s educational committee chaired by Benjamin Bloom.The committee established a set of taxonomies in three domains of learning: cognitive, affectiveand psychomotor. The cognitive domain taxonomy is widely accepted in many fields and hasbeen
, including attitude; however, a large portion ofthe safety culture is directly connected to on-the-job work. As faculty, our responsibility is to doour best to prepare our students for this work. Faculty must focus instruction on safety rules andprocedures, and we must emphasize the use of communication skills and competency to promotesafety in the work environment.This paper offers an overview of our current approach to teaching construction safety, our plansfor the future, and recommendations for safety education for similar programs.IntroductionThe Construction Engineering Technology (CET) program at Montana State University (MSU)is an ABET-TAC accredited program and was founded in 1960 in the Department ofEngineering and Agriculture, which is

The pilot project served to give Pontiac school district administrators a good look atKumon’s methodology, and provided some preliminary evidence of its efficacy. It alsodemonstrated Oakland University’s commitment. In May 2002, school administrators(including the Superintendent), university faculty, and Kumon staff visited SumitonElementary/Middle School in Sumiton, near Birmingham, Alabama to observe theKumon program being implemented during regular school hours. Sumiton has been using the Kumon-developed mathematics curriculum for all of itsK-5 students during the first period of each day for

saving time, consistency ofaccess, inspired students, and family involvement. If you have tried to call a high school andreach the principal or faculty members, you are aware of how hard it is to develop a line ofcommunication. High schools often times just do not have the infrastructure to support extraphone calls, or community outreach partnerships. Many times you will have to call a teacher athome in the evenings to discuss a project or program.All of the academic enrichment programs I have worked with have staff members that answerthe phone. The organizations are easily accessible to anyone in an engineering departmentbecause they can be located in the phone book or on the web.

learning situations and problem-solving mathematically is a preferred and effectivemethod for engineering students.Despite the obvious fit that biomedical engineering programs and quantitatively-basedphysiology courses seem to make, quantitative courses in physiology are still quite rare.Biomedical engineering is a relatively young discipline. Undergraduate programs are in variousstates of development and a common core curriculum is still evolving. Many programs havelimited resources and faculty to teach their own departmental physiology courses. Takingadvantage of more qualitatively-oriented physiology courses is an economic necessity.Structuring Physiology Course ContentOrganizing course content requires at least two decisions – what topics to
