Extinction or is their Mission Changing?Abstract - Across the nation, numerous legacy electronics technology programs at the two-yearcollege level are: being converted to Cisco and A+ based computer networking and repairprograms, increasingly being asked to teach electronics fundamentals to non-electronics basedtechnologies, and, most significantly, experiencing declining enrollments. In some cases,programs have been discontinued entirely due to a persistent lack of students. In essence, thebasic core mission of the legacy electronics technology program, to produce “electronicstechnicians”, has been morphing into a hybrid educational endeavor. This fact is being driven bythe increasing use of complex electronic systems and sophisticated

Thesecourses developed for K13 & K14 levels will be offered in an innovative classroom setting forhands-on experimental learning with a focus on solving scientific problems as a team. Thesecourses will also be deployed for online learning in a virtual classroom. The effectiveness of suchan approach, introducing concepts from engineering education to the non-engineering students,will be assessed through formative and summative methods for further development anddissemination._____________________________________________________________________________*CIBRED is funded by NSF award OCI-0753375 to O
