andeducation have grappled with the adequacy of the baccalaureate degree as preparation for acareer in engineering, especially licensed professional practice. Technological advances andexpanding societal needs demand that coursework cover more content, while the credit hoursrequired to obtain a bachelor’s degree continue to decline. Up until the early 1960’s the averageengineering curriculum required 145-150 credit hours of coursework. Many programs todayhave curricula approaching 120 credit hours for a baccalaureate degree.As far back as 1968, the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) authored Goals ofEngineering Education1, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF).

% preferred to use both an onlineresource and calculator. Page 26.1614.9The majority of the responses for the choice(s) of technology was due to (1) ease of access; (2)simple usage; (3) not knowing other technologies. The interview responses regarding to thegraphing problem indicated the following outcomes for the majority of the participants:• Lack of ability to use the programming languages they learned (such as C, C++, Java, Excel) during their high school years for solving a graphing problem in mathematics;• Those who learned how to use a calculator in high school continued using it during their

, or in a subset of domains in the database.4.1 Polysemy Tool OverviewThe polysemy tool interface looks a lot like the clustering survey application used previously: itshows a term and its concepts in semantic clusters that can be changed via a threshold slider. Inaddition, the polysemy tool adds utilization of all terms and concepts in the database, and alsoprovides the ability to filter results by domain(s). The figure below shows the new tool divisionon the Termediator web app and the view of a single term in the polysemy tool. Figure 5. Polysemy web tool interface.The polysemy tool allows you to search for a single term, or automatically generate the mostdissonant terms in a set of domains.Findings from the

Make note of your experience aswell as your partner’s. There are a number of incrementally additive instructions that build uponthis. The exercises conclude with the addition of information sharing and listening. Students aregiven this set of instructions: Place two chairs in a position and at the angle that is reasonablycomfortable for both you and your partner. Some compromise may be necessary.

The existing STEM workforce is aging, with many individuals nearing retirement. Women and minorities are underrepresented in most S&E educational pursuits at a time when they constitute the majority of college students and therefore the majority of the future workforce.

, and solder onto the PCB using figure 36 as reference. Ensure that the motor leads do not cause any shorts 2 . Note: Figure 36 is mirrored from what is seen looking down on the board and the red wire of the vibration motor should be connected to terminal labeled + and the blue wire to - shown in figure 36. This wiring assumes that the vibration motor will rotate in the clockwise direction with normal polarity (blue lead to ground). The left motor, M2, is connected with normal polarity and the right motor, M1, is reversed. This is why M1’s postive lead is acctually connected to ground.

habits.These students did not produce much non-recyclable trash in the assigned week, but for fear ofnot completing the assignment, filled the bag with items they might normally recycle, thusengendering greater emphasis be placed on recycling in class than might have been necessaryhad the instructions been clearer. Examples of such responses are: The trash collected is not an accurate account of an individual[’]s waste. For instance I cook with a lot of fresh meat and vegetables, I had to leave out almost all of my trash (fat from steak trimmings, the base from lettuce heads, lots of egg shells, pineapple...). The only trash I was able to bring in was trash I would of put into the recycling if I didn't have this assignment. Maybe the
