electrical engineering courses, with the goal of transitioning from
knowledge-based to development-based programs. Too often, students learn
behaviors that let them succeed in class, but these behaviors are not always
needed to succeed in their career. This process seeks to increase the
knowledge content of a program without increasing time to graduation. It
also seeks to engage both current and future faculty in integrating scholarship
back into teaching. Come early to guarantee yourself a seat to hear about
this model for improving the teaching/learning
experience.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
