An expert in engineering education or computer scienceeducation research is needed--this person should be familiar with the literature in this area and beable to ground the project plan within that literature. For example, have similar ideas been triedat other institutions? What are best practices?

What we came up with was a surprisingly discrete model of facultyprofessional development for our department, whose faculty identifies primarily as scholars in a)engineering and design education or b) the social sciences. This model extends from the team-teaching efforts described above but goes further to require instructional teams to define“integrated lessons” building upon each of their mutual disciplinary instructional traditions.Our proposed instructional

One possible explanation for the lack of differences betweengroups in the current research may be the efficacy of these programs in alleviating gaps foundin previous research. However, since this research was not designed to test the efficacy of anyor all of these programs, such an explanation is clearly speculative.

across a broad swath of American manufacturing industriesincluding the machine tool and auto industries. Many of those that remained are reaching the ageof retirement and will take valuable expertise with them when they leave their companies. Forthis reason the education of new engineers remains a critical need for many states across the US.As important as this need is, budgetary constraints occurring simultaneously with the economicdownturn, have resulted in challenges to four-year schools graduating engineers in sufficientnumbers. In particular manufacturing engineers, whose expertise is best matched to theproduction of goods, only graduate from fewer than 20 programs here in the United States.Part of the need for manufacturing engineers is
