Ahigh score on VL-S would indicate that the computing student believed customers could bebetter served if diversity is valued. A high score on VL-F would indicate the computing studentperceived valuing diversity aligned with a strong inward desire for purpose and fairness in theirwork.

As such,the authors have devised a program that: (1) relinquishes a degree of control to students byproviding them some flexibility in determining the subject of their experiments and in thedevelopment of experimental procedures and protocols, (2) uses mobile experimentation as apowerful and flexible tool in lecture-based coursework, and (3) expands the concept of the“laboratory” to include virtually everything outside of it. A pilot program in mobileexperimentation and data acquisition that featured these approaches was conducted over twosemesters. Students used PDAs to perform experiments using “real world” engineering systemsthat were found on or around campus. Such systems included: vehicle suspensions, elevators,auto-focus and

Engineering laboratories in which students follow detailedprocedures without deviation are unlikely to impart the ability to design and conductexperiments because the students never experience designing experiments and are being ledby prescriptive instructions rather than by a protocol they established on their own.

The importance ofteamwork is also true for SJSU’s Industrial Design that participated in E-Teams [16] as well asbusiness [17, 18].Groups have been used in higher education for decades.

Annual Conference & Exposition Copyright 2001, American Society for Engineering SocietyXIV. ConclusionIn many graduate classes, theory is usually dominant over engineering application. Applicationof graduate level theory may be lengthy and/or difficult without computer codes. The students inthe class with prior computer language experience preferred using MathCad for their projects.Computer codes such as FORTRAN or C+ require users to enter algorithms with a distinctalphanumeric structure that only vaguely looks like the equations upon which the algorithm isbased. MathCad provides the same basic programming structures available in compiler basedprogramming languages while maintaining the look of the mathematics. The
