is integrated with current course material on an intranet. Thisis particularly useful when all students have their own personal laptop computers and thelearning environment is connected with a wireless network. This paper will demonstrate anddiscuss the experiences at the University of Oklahoma trying to teach the basic Statics classusing laptop computers, CD-ROMs, and the intranet.This project did not develop new courseware, but instead used the Multimedia EngineeringStatics CD-ROM (published by Addison Wesley Longman, 1997) for the main course content.The CD was supplemented with newly developed intranet-based material such as homework,examples, quizzes, solutions, and lectures. The outcome of the course showed that students canuse
adult learning is self-directed through one’s life-based roles, experiences and interactions.The andragogy method is infinitely more superior when a more modern definition of college oradult education is used, especially in this electronic age. The learner must be the focus of thedefinition, which is “ the preparation for and the acquisition of knowledge, skills andunderstanding to become an adaptable human being.”2 As adults mature their readiness to attainadditional knowledge and skills increases primarily if the subject matter content (1) relates totheir job/social role, (2) is task or problem centered, and (3) has a time perspective of immediateapplication.This paper presents the basis of andragogy and alternative approaches those in

Change In the Meaning of Science Herbert W. Gernand For many students who have an interest in science orengineering the words "science" or "exact science" have avery special meaning. They create a vision of an imperish-able structure of facts and knowledge. They suggest man-kind's accumulated wisdom and truth about the regular andrepetitive, machine-like operations of nature. They alsoprovide assurance that the universe is now understood andthat only additional data remains to be added to our presentknowledge. Moreover, they promote the confidence that theanswers to all, or at least most, human questions can befound in science, and that in science lies the hope forthe future. In fact this concept

multiple lab-scale and pilot plants whichhave demonstrated the ability for TES systems to meet the power demand reliably, commercialscale CSP plants have struggled to meet the 24-hour demand. The US Department of Energy(DOE) has recently issued two main research calls with similar aggressive goals. The SunShotInitiative and the CSP Gen3 challenge, both which targets a 50% thermal-to-electric conversionefficiency,16-hour thermal storage, $0.06 kWh and a 30-year operating lifetime. Moreover, CSPtechnologies can be coupled with a TES system for water heating and HVAC applications.
