The prevention, elimination, or suppression of such electromagnetic interference (EMI) to a satisfactory level constitutes the engineering discipline electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Its objective is preservation or recovery of expected performance of electronic systems at minimal cost and minimal disturbance of the systems' development process. The need to provide timely solutions, commensurate with the system state of development, binds EMC tools, methodology, and management to efficient approximations, modeling, and predictions relying on incomplete knowledge of the system, and efficient measurement sequences. Lessons learned on EMC effort management, and insights gained are reviewed in perspective of 50 years of development of EMC.

A citizen in a modern 21 st century society requires self-branding, adaptively and ever learning qualities. While science laws hardly changed during the past century -technology, which utilizes and integrates these rules into systems, is developing in an exploding rate that reshapes our living environment and occupation. At least 30% of the citizens are influenced directly by technology –in science, technology, engineering or related services. Most of the rest need STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) literacy for their daily life. Reality-based science learning, relying on interactive analysis and creative development – are the basis of the academic and technologic culture, and of the social dialog. About 6% of the graduates from the education system in Israel have chosen 5 units science, and about 90% of them will end up in industry or services after academic graduation. The gap – in quantity and in quality, between that and the economy need has been identified. Alternative learning models have proven advantageous in various communities and recommended by science academies. The talk reviews Inquiry-Based and Project-Based learning. Research reports of 20% of graduates from a specific school adhering to IBL have been evaluated by Technion faculty. These represent a full distribution, not only exceptional students. The evaluation is discussed, along with the unique teaching model and teachers' community. The essentials of IBL and requirements in planning inquiries are reviewed.
