Furthermore, it was apparent thatBaylor University’s engineering students, while studying the technical engineering topics in thecurriculum, were also unaware of the challenges ahead in the area of energy. This paper examinesthe development of an "energy literacy" class designed for incoming freshmen in all disciplines.Many students do not know their major as incoming freshmen but they may have an interest in thearea of energy regardless of major. As part of the Quality Enhancement Program (QEP), arequirement of SACS, Baylor University was tasked to develop living and learning communities forincoming freshmen that revolved around a theme.

Online/distant education is an appropriate vehicle toutilize in this expansion of access.However, there are several challenges to offering an entire program in electrical engineeringand/or electrical engineering technology online. One of the most significant of thechallenges is the difficulty of offering high quality, instructor led, lab experiences overdistance. Another challenge is to achieve this at a low cost.
