1982 cooperative learning workshop conducted by Harold Goldstein and KarlSmith was one of the first workshops devoted to helping engineering faculty learn how toimplement cooperative learning in their classes. Also in 1981 Karl published an article in theJournal of Engineering Education on cooperative learning with David and Roger Johnson. It wastitled “Structuring learning goals to meet the goals of engineering education.” (Smith, Johnson &Johnson, 1981).Another milestone year was 1989 when at the FIE Conference in Binghamton, NY three studentsfrom the Norwegian Institute of Technology in Trondheim, Norway described their student-ledinitiative to incorporate cooperative learning.

This isone of the few functions that, if done well, can make a good project a great one a nd, if not donewell, can cause what could be a great project to fail miserably. To add even more responsibilityto the project manager, many companies in our lean global economy either include the role ofpersonnel manager into the Project Manager function or combine the project management,personnel management and technology management roles into an Engineering Managementfunction.
