Acknowledgments
I want to thank all my students who have taught me as much, if not more, than what I have taught them since I started my career at USF in 1987. Special thanks go to the Teaching Enhancement Center of the University of South Florida for teaching me that effective teaching is more than an art; it can be a learned habit. This article was presented at the Annual Conference of the American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE), June 20–23, 2003, in Nashville, Tenn. I would also like to thank an anonymous reviewer for constructive feedback on this paper.
