-friendly workforce development on-line classroom tailored to specific opportunities forstudent improvement.The consulting team began by interviewing graduating seniors who had recently taken theWorkKeys assessment. They expressed their frustrations with finding specific lessons buriedamongst thousands of pages across nearly two-dozen PDFs with no indices or tables of contents.This required the students to open each PDF in order and scroll through every page until finallyidentifying the desired lesson. This was an extremely time-consuming process for the studentsespecially those without high-speed internet access at home.Rather than immediately seeking a solution, the team was instructed to first conductbenchmarking research of best practices in

This approach to technology assessment differs from traditional models that typically focus on“impact assessments” of what the effects of a new technology are on society after the technology has beenintroduced. Real-time technology assessment attempts to incorporate potential societal implications into theactual “real-time” design processes that go into the construction of a new

To assessthe outcomes, the journal papers written by the teams of high school students and feedback fromformer students who are now engineers were analyzed. The student’s papers show that everyyear the project resulted in a circuit that could at least produce sound.
