ability that experienced engineers possess. “Most students do not find statics to be conceptually difficult, but are often overwhelmed by the myriad of small decisions that they must get correct if they are going to successfully solve a problem. Too often, this causes a student to question if he/she should continue to study engineering. The key idea implemented in ARCHIMEDES is a just-in-time feedback process for enhanced learning of problem- solving strategies.”7 The system divides the problems into steps that would logically be taken. For example, the first step in many statics problems is drawing a free-body diagram(s). Page

As one writer put it, “I think mentors should be role models, BUT a role model who hasn'tforgotten where s/he came from, how s/he got to where s/he is now and always looking back to seeif s/he can help those that came from the very same place.”3 Everyone has had to write, andengineering faculty continue to have to produce text throughout their careers. By taking their owntravels through communication as a means to get engineering students to look at their own tasks, abond can form that allows for the improvement of student text.ProcedureHow does one approach a situation where the faculty is to be asked to perhaps open up to studentsin an area that they may not be totally comfortable? How do you get

information.Many learning style models have been formulated and instruments developed to assess preferences that arebenefitting millions of users. Examples of learning styles are: active v/s reflective and visual v/s verbal. Activelearners rely on activities while reflective learners take recourse to reflection. Visual learners benefit fromvisual cues like pictures and charts and verbal learners feel comfortable with words. In real life, we have to useall the learning styles and therefore achieve balance between them. We can rely on our stronger styles to learndifficult areas and hone our weaker styles to learn easier areas. Liberal learning can provide the requiredopportunities to experiment and bring in the required balance.Liberal Learning

While quality programs like TQM (Total Quality Management)or Kaizen a continuous improvement methodology were using similar tools (i.e. CapabilityStudies, Pareto Analysis, Designed Experiments) to improve quality, many companies found thatthey did not succeed.
