In summer of 1991, 24 visitors (including three faculty from Czech TechnicalUniversity) participated in the first program, fully funded by Rockwell. Various MSOE faculty,typically selected from the electrical engineering and school of business graduate program ,conducted the four week program. Some lectures and facility tours were conducted at localRockwell facilities by their personnel. Students were housed in the MSOE dorms. Topics wereoffered in two or three hour blocks, some requiring two or three blocks; the project was thedevelopment of a business/manufacturing plan for a hypothetical product.

Directstudent evaluation of their own projects offers a wealth of opportunities to enhance the totaldesign process. We have found students often benefit more from the identification of a designinconsistency than they do from a perfectly working chip. In addition to the pedagogical benefits of student executed testing, NSF requires reportingon the results of testing on all sponsored Tiny Chips within three months of receipt of devices.Testing for both functionality and speed, and comparison with simulation are all desired elementsof these reports.7 Electronic mail is the

Themini-project was developed to help students meet specific objectives based on Bloom'staxonomy. Students were expected to utilize the materials learned in the Structural materialslecture and lab to come up with a plan to test the effect of a pozzolan/supplementarycementitious material (SCM) on the properties of concrete. The student groups worked on fivedifferent mixes, investigating the effect of two different pozzolans: fly ash and

Thereare three general types of appraisals: confidential, open, and semi-open / semi-secret. Aconfidential appraisal does not include the appraised employee in the appraisal process [3]. Foran open appraisal, the appraised employee achieves self-awareness by being made aware ofstrengths, weaknesses, contributions, and shortcomings. This method of appraisal is reflectiveand involves the establishment of a plan of action [3]. A semi-open / semi-secret appraisalincludes the appraised employee at the beginning of the process and later removes theirparticipation until they receive their final rating [3].The
