Bandura15 would describe this as the “self-regulated learner.” Students are guided through the assignments, and are asked to repeat the worksheetswhere they experienced difficulty or made a number of mistakes. This activity providesthe students with what Ericsson, et al.9 calls “deliberate practice.” In effect, practicereinforces learning and provides the student with opportunities to re-learn steps he or shemay have forgotten.

The committee concluded that the 21st centurycivil engineer must demonstrate:1.

The value of exams as a learning tool has always beenquestioned. Some courses use papers or projects as the basis for evaluation instead.These methods possess the advantage of directing the attention of students to their writing buthave the disadvantage of providing the instructor with no opportunity to evaluate how well thestudents mastered the basic ideas and skills being taught. (2)In lecture based courses it is even more difficult to replace exams with other means of evaluationespecially when the course is problem solving in nature. Therefore exams

majority of engineering studentsclassify themselves as inductive learners rather than deductive learners. Induction is our naturallearning style whereby we observe the world and draw inferences. It is thus preferable to engagestudents in active learning during lecture. Active learning is an approach where students areactive participants in mastering knowledge. One approach to fostering active learning is toprovide opportunities for students to apply a concept to solve a problem. To promote this engagement, a student response system was employed. The institutionhad an existing electronic classroom response system available called Iclickers. The Iclickerprogram requires students to purchase a response device that communicates with a receiver

major – and perhaps the most significant – benefit of the ConE program described hereis the enhancement of serious construction research. The SAEC will offer masters anddoctoral programs in construction starting about a year after the bachelors programbegins. The possibility of this research has attracted new faculty members to the SAEC atboth newly awarded and seasoned Ph.D. levels. The SAEC has just hired a new facultymember for this purpose and expects to hire two to four more in the next several years.These new faculty members will strengthen an already strong faculty of constructionpractitioners.Bibliography1.

Its goal is to coordinate the diversehigher education systems that function in the different member countries so that they work insync while respecting the cultural diversity and autonomy of each university. This modelfavours not only a common credit system that allows an easy homologation that promotesmobility amongst undergraduate and graduate students, but the proposed system convergestowards the Anglo-Saxon model, where the titles are denominated Bachelor, Master, andDoctoral degree.Due to its possibly global impact, the convenience of adopting a similar model for the training ofengineers in Latin America has been greatly debated.
