She is driven to create an inclusive environment. Consequently Dr. Morgan was drawn to teaching FOSS and HFOSS development based on work that is being done that suggests underrepresented groups are attracted to HFOSS participation. She teaches a one-term HFOSS course to both senior and graduate level students. The goal of the course

During the last few years, the learning requirements of adultlearners have increased in conjunction with the number of higher education organizations;university administrators began to value the function of extension education (Cowan andPinheiro-Torres, 2004). In 1991, fifty colleges and universities were operating in Taiwan. In2011, the number of colleges and universities was as high as 145, a three-fold growth rate.

Students realize that changing material properties play an important role inunderstanding why materials are selected for different design specifications. Engineeringstudents take courses in mechanics of material, machine design, finite element analysis andcapstone senior projects. These courses require students to call out and specify the best and leastexpensive material according to some type of chemical, physical or mechanical loadingconditions. Students should understand the way a material behaves in service depends upon itsalloy composition, crystalline structure, manufacturing process and

listof techniques, but rather, a discussion of techniques which can be practically implemented.Introduction:Through attendance at different teaching workshops, seminars, and trial and error, manyinstructors accumulate good ideas on more effective teaching. Some of these ideas are lost duringthe semester as research, service, publishing, and teaching preparation consume all available time.However, some ideas can be implemented fairly easily, and have had excellent results for aminimum investment of effort and time. This paper is designed to discuss some ideas which havebeen successfully implemented in order to inspire others to try to spice up an otherwise drylecture. The main reason for such a paper can be seen in the goal statement of a recent
