ENT 4410 Technical Direction

This course is taught using a “problem-based” model. This is a student-centered model of instruction and it requires students to be engaged and active members of the class. Student-centered means students will be choosing what to study, what solutions to attempt, and doing a lot of learning on their own both in and out of class. In order to be successful as a class, we all have to commit to working together.
