recordingsIntroductionLecture capture, the recording of face-to-face classroom lectures in digital format, and makingthese recordings available for asynchronous first-time viewing or reviewing by students, is animportant and beneficial tool for engineering education that has been in use for several yearsnow; but that has experienced a slow adoption rate. In the 2010 National Survey of InformationTechnology in Higher Education[1], a survey of senior campus information technology officersfrom 523 public and private colleges and universities across the United States, more than sixtypercent of the survey participants either “agree” or “strongly agree” that lecture capture is animportant part of their plans for developing and delivering instructional materials. However

The programming projects in these coursesdeal with various parts of the Web search including search engines, crawling, retrieval anduser interface. Most of these projects use the technology of CGI, making it rely on existingWeb servers. What made our project different was that we emphasized the whole picture ofWeb search. Our project included every components in a Web search retrieval system, theWeb server, the crawler, indexing, ranking and retrieving components.

However, we are hopeful that the combination ofscaffolding, relatively small group learning and integrated skills development in ENGAGE willenable talented but underprepared aspiring engineering students to successfully make thetransition from high school to university and acquire the knowledge, skills and attitudes that willenable them to fulfill their dreams and meet South Africa’s need for more engineers.Bibliography1 NARSET (1997).

questions. First, could this method beemployed successfully in research involving instructional technology, in which the users’task is fairly complex, involving reading, listening to voice-overs, processing graphicalinformation, and using interactive elements? A related question was ecological validity:Does producing a verbal protocol change how the student uses the CD? If the methodwas useable and valid, we could apply it to the questions above. Other questions wewanted to answer were how the students thought using the CD compared to using a Page 10.1169.2 Proceedings of the 2005 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference &
