Unfortunately, thesecompetencies are among those identified as key weaknesses of the engineering graduate. Hood,Sorensen and Magleby [Hood,1993] list the weaknesses identified by industry to include: 1)weakcommunication skills, 2) poor perception of the overall project engineering process, 3) little skillor experience working in teams, 4) a narrow view of engineering and related disciplines, 5) nounderstanding of manufacturing processes, and 6) a lack of appreciation for consideringalternatives.

In a traditional laboratory, students perform these experiments usingspecific equipment and instrumentation under the supervision of a laboratory instructorduring the time slots of laboratory sessions.

One lead from the firing circuit was heldto the negative post on the battery with the operators thumb. To fire the rocket, the other leadwas placed on the positive post of the battery. The data acquisition program was also verysimple. When the program was run, the laptop sampled the strain indicator output voltage at arate of 500 samples per second for 10 seconds and then wrote the data to a file.

Review ofthe capabilities of it indicated that it had all the features we needed to cover in our introductorymicroprocessor class. It has a convenient package, limited number of pins and a low cost thatmade it a good candidate to implement in our class. Another advantage which we did notinitially consider was the internal clock on the MC9S08QG8 that required no external circuitry.This greatly simplifies any application where timing is not

Still, a successful investment strategy may involve both long-termstrategies (with a focus on girls) and short- to mid-term strategies. The latter requires givingwomen an educational foundation that allows them to enter computer-related professions aftercompleting a college degree that may not be in CS.Doing this would open more doors since women often choose a computer
