something students do. It requirescompelling problems and well-designed laboratories, studios, workshops, and playingspaces. It demands strenuous efforts and experts to intercede with stories, admonitions,or principles when students fail, as they must, if they are to learn. Most of the learningthat results in the expertise of the practicing scientist, engineer, or poet is accomplishedthrough hands and minds on a task. Just think of the contrast between the activities ofapprentices in a workshop and the passivity of pupils in a lecture hall.If we refocus our efforts on learning, professors can exploit information technology toprovide data, scholarly references, and simulated problems for cognitive workshops. Inthose workspaces, student investigators

Teaching technological courses today requires updates every time a course istaught due to the vast amount of research and developments in these disciplines. Additions ofProceedings of the 2004 American Society for Engineering Education Midwest Section Conferenceneural networks modules can be looked at in a similar manner and added to currentundergraduate courses.This paper presents a simple software tool developed in JAVA to teach the basic concepts ofneural networks and its training with backpropagation.

We do this through a program of faculty-mentoredmultidisciplinary research, professional development, and exposure to real-world issues thatreflect the impact of nanotechnology on society, the business community, human health, and theenvironment. This approach also supports self-efficacy, multidisciplinary team-building,understanding the broader impacts of technology, and building the skills necessary for researchand lifelong learning.Overall, the key goals are:1.

Theimportance of the quantification of uncertainty on such calculated risks isdocumented by the National Research Council2, US Department of Energy3,NASA4, and NIH5.In the age of computers, and high technology, and Uncertainty RiskQuantification initiatives by major US national agencies, it seems appropriate touse of random values of materials properties, and known random external appliedloads in mechanical analyses.
