Information For Engineers & Engineering Students engineers and WGBH Boston to teach middleschool engineering principles through hands-onactivities and by said Peter Schkeeper, a professional engineer in Red http://www.eweek.org/site/Engineers/zoompress.shtml
Extractions: COMBINE FORCES TO TEACH ENGINEERING CONCEPTS Seminar Photos » Tell a six-year-old that elasticity relies on a key principle of engineering and expect eyes to glaze over. Let that child make a mini-bungee jump by putting an egg in the toe of a nylon stocking to test how far it can drop before it splatters, however, and consider it a lesson in engineering learned. ZOOM , the daily PBS television series and Web site produced by WGBH Boston, the program will teach children the essence of engineering through hands-on experiments, such as the bungee egg and other fun activities. To kick off the program, National Engineers Week 2002 co-chairs the American Society of Civil Engineers and DuPont hosted a training seminar to hone the teaching skills of engineers on October 15 at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C. Led by WGBH educational staff, the seminar brought together more than 80 volunteer engineers from 24 states. The meeting was the first step in creating ZOOM INTO ENGINEERING workshops and events nationwide to reach kids with the message of what engineers do every day solve problems using science and technology.

Engineer of engineering. An engineer applies the laws of professions, and the engineer activity badge gives Den activities. Visit a construction site. - Have an engineer or surveyor http://coloradoscouts.home.att.net/engineer.htm
Extractions: Heart of America Council, Viking Council, Greater St. Louis Area Council, Greater Alabama Council Almost every Webelos Scout, not to mention fathers and leaders, can find an interesting area of engineering. An engineer applies the laws of physics and chemistry to solve the problems of construction, industry, and other areas. The scientists who build machines are called engineers. They do tests and experiments that help them to invent new machines or improve old ones. It is one of the most exacting of the professions, and the Engineer activity badge gives insight into several types of engineering. With careful planning, a den meeting can change a boy's whole concept of man made objects from apathy to excitement. Engineer is defined as a person who is skilled in at applying scientific knowledge to practical uses. Anybody can be an engineer - involved in the creation or construction of something. The Webelos Scouts will gain some insight about the practical application of skills and knowledge by studying the Engineer activity pin. Websites to check out http://www.howstuffworks.com/pulley.htm

Extractions: The New Engineer Program at the University of Dayton Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) What is the purpose of the New Engineer Program and why does the University of Dayton need it now? The purpose of the New Engineer Program is to develop engineering graduates who are better prepared to face the challenges of the future, with technical competence, improved critical thinking, interpersonal, teaming, and leadership skills, and a stronger commitment to serving society through their profession. The future poses many challenges for engineering education. Engineering programs around the country will be pressured to adapt to more economical internet delivery of knowledge. The New Engineer Program at the University of Dayton will provide a much needed alternative path for students, providing more personal attention, not less. Students will choose to participate in the New Engineer Program because they will know that their growth, both professional and personal, will be significantly improved because of this personal attention.

Extractions: New Orleans District The Chief of Engineer's philosophy card has four important points. One is to Be healthy. A lot of people in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers take that advice very seriously. Most districts have a health and wellness program, and report solid improvement in employee morale and productivity. Here's how one such program works in New Orleans District. Their Wellness Program is implemented through its Occupational Health Office. Employees are encouraged to take full advantage of this program and to be responsible for maintaining good health. "Those who take the time and effort know the many benefits that you derive from eating well, exercising, and/or knowing your physical condition and limitations," said Col. Thomas Julich, District Engineer. "Doing those things can have an overall positive impact on a person's attitude toward themselves and their work." How it began The Wellness Program officially began last January. Since then, more than 450 employees have participated. Here's how it works:

:: NASA Quest > Women Of NASA :: I'm a Computer engineer. Our project team is is developing a set of collaborativetools to support the dayto-day activities of distributed science teams. http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/women/bios/kh.html
Extractions: I'm a Computer Engineer. I work in the Computational Sciences Division of the Information Sciences and Technology Directorate at NASA/Ames Research Center. I perform system engineering tasks and develop software applications. I'm fortunate to have the opportunity to work on projects where I can learn about state-of-the-art technologies. Currently I am working on a new project called ScienceDesk. Our project team is is developing a set of collaborative tools to support the day-to-day activities of distributed science teams. These activities include preparing data, conducting remote experiments, managing data and information resources, and tracking scientific progress. We're developing software prototypes for remote access and control of scientific instruments, a project respository for storage of documents, data, notes, and images, and a web-based interface for accessing these components. One interesting project I worked on in the past, was the Wireless Network Experiment (WNE). It was performed on both the Space Shuttle Atlantis and the Russian Mir Space Station in March 1996 during the STS-76 mission. Using three computers, astronauts operated the first wirlesss local area network in space. The WNE was designed to evaluate electomagnetic compatibility, computer performance, wireless network performance and human factors issues. This experiment is part of a larger program to provide a reliable, flexible network infrastructure for the International Space Station (ISS) that will support astronauts in performing experiments and other tasks aboard the ISS.
