Studies at Kansas State University beginning Fall 2019. Sean’s primary research interests exist at the intersec- tions of organizational communication, new media, gender, and organizing. Within engineering contexts, Sean has examined career issues within the engineering discipline regarding (1) new faculty experiences throughout their on-boarding and (2) educational cultures that impact the professional formation of engi- neers, which was funded by the National Science Foundation. Both projects have been published in the Proceedings of the American Society of Engineering Education. He has also served as a series editor, contributed to trade publications, and facilitated workshops related to higher education

In order to limit the action and reflection possibilities, the learner interacts within a somewhat restricted, artificial environment, which is reduced in complexity and easy to control by the teacher. To provide feedback, the learning environment is designed to include relevant devices where students can deposit their interim products and teachers can inspect them. The emphasis in this model lies on the learning process of the student. Teachers try to help the

For example, if theinstructional topic is perceived by the student as relevant and valuable in attaining a sought aftergoal, the student will be motivated to perform [13, 31]. It’s common in career and technicalprograms that too many students fail to see the relevancy in their fundamental math courses [18,40].
