It is worthwhileremembering, then, that the expansion of virtual internships is expanding access to certain fields,e.g. software design, IT, and marketing, but this process is far from universal. Moreover,expanding access reflects shifting economic conditions within and across engineeringprofessions that lower the cost of labor for a private company, which no longer has to provideoffice space or equipment for newly virtual interns [33].

Solving problems is both an intuitiveand well-worn idea whose value is not disputed, and engineering students are constantlysharpening their problem solving skills by actually solving problems on homework assignmentsand exams.The other part of this dyad, watching experts solve problems, leverages the worked exampleeffect[1]–[3] (WE).
