Distance Education, for example, has been re-defined to describethe teaching-learning relationship in which participants interact through advancedcommunication technology.Career competition with growing numbers of increasingly sophisticated fellow "experts" is onthe minds and tongues of those in virtually every profession. Just as our appetite for continuedcareer education grows, the diversity and sophistication of ways to deliver that educationcontinues to expand. Therefore, it becomes complex, expensive, and difficult to pick from. Weare not sure which of these delivery systems is the most effective. There are ways to measureeffectiveness from an engineering standpoint, but a large portion of the choice is behaviorallyoriented.II

Although the ABET 2000 Criteria are more flexible than theirpredecessor, the fact that programs must still satisfy credit hour or percentage minima inengineering, math/science and liberal arts contents as well as more specific program criterianeeds to be kept in mind. From the viewpoint of Union College, we are thankful for the addedflexibility and believe that we have put it to good use within our institutional framework, but thenew process did require a considerably larger effort than the one it replaced. Hopefully, as weall become more versed in assessment techniques and in the implementation of the ABET 2000criteria this will cease to be the case.MICHAEL RUDKOUnion CollegeElectrical Engineering

The deep understanding of the concepts at play in this problem relates to barriers toproblem solving success that students might face (RQ1). Deeper knowledge structures aretypically developed through experience and time spent working with similar problems and wouldnot necessarily be expected of students, yet they are arguably required (in my mind) to be asuccessful engineer. Given that so many of our courses have prerequisite knowledge and requirethe successful transfer of this prior knowledge, it would seem however that other educators valuethis
