In particular: There are a variety of reasons to offer MOOCs including: marketing / organizational awareness, outreach, providing professional development, support enrollment in “traditional” programs, etc. It is imperative that the goal(s) be clearly established early so that appropriate decisions regarding design and development can be made which support the goals. Very careful attention to content management minimizes issues when the course is offered.

. Arc Flash is due to the rapidrelease of energy caused by an arcing fault between two phases or from a phase to ground of anAC power circuit. The discharge of energy may be massive and vaporize copper causing an arcblast devastating everything in its path. This may be more easily described in the followingfigure or from the YouTube video inadvertently shown in the EET class a year ago. The resultsare devastating.Why the focus on Arc Flash?The study of arc flash dates to the early 1980's paper "The Other Electrical Hazard: Electric ArcBlast Burns" by Ralph Lee which was published in the IEEE Transactions on IndustrialApplications. The standards based on this paper have been available for quite a long time buthave only recently been taken

trained in response to the 1960’s space race.Engineers have strong backgrounds in mathematics, physics and chemistry; practiced analyticalskills; and an appreciation for integrated systems. To remain competitive, tomorrow’sengineering undergraduate must have a strong background in biology as well. Our long-termobjective is the development of a curriculum that integrates biology to a degree comparable tothe current integration of chemistry, physics, and mathematics. Ultimately, our goal is todramatically overhaul existing engineering curricula and integrate biology for engineers withinall levels of formal engineering education. Some of the short and long-term benefits of thechanges we propose include developing a pool of qualified undergraduate

Accordingly, when the firstengineering program at Southwest Texas State University was initiated in the fall of 2000, wemade plans to redesign existing courses and develop new courses to meet the educational needs of21st-century manufacturing engineers.Background Southwest Texas State University was founded in 1899 as Southwest Texas State NormalSchool.

In fact, the community can now look to the university to partner inevaluating and solving other problems. Therefore, there is a pedagogical rationale for using CSLand an opportunity to establish collaborative relationships with community partners. If properlyimplemented, this service can bridge across the various academic disciplines of the university andbecome a vital part of the students’ educational experience.
