| Abstract | In an effort to assess the effects of cognitive style and the structure of an engineering curriculum on student learning, Gordon's Cognitive Style typology was used to characterize faculty and students in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Clemson University. Gordon's typology provides measures which characterize those aspects of learning that involve creativity, problem solving, and problem identification. Originated to examine scientific creativity and research styles, it was subsequently found to be a predictor of scientists' choice of career fields and has been correlated with performance of engineering students on tasks of different types. The results of the study using this typology were used to assess the effect of design activities and selected courses on performance and retention of students students of different cognitive styles. The results of cognitive style typing for Clemson students were examined for success in different curriculum areas and for attrition by cognitive style. The results suggest that the existing curriculum disadvantages one cognitive style more so than others. They also indicate that faculty/student differences are significant issues that deserve further study. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
