, project management, strategic planning, preconstruction, and sustaining the built environment. At Purdue, Benhart also leads the Healthcare Construction Management program and works with the first ASHE (American Society of Healthcare Engineering) student chapter. His position allows him to further develop construction education in the built environment and be an in- dustry advocate for the next generation of builders. He is also very involved in field supervision training programs, both at Purdue and on the national level. He focuses on the sustainability of our industry by mentoring the retiring baby boomers with new foremen and superintendents. Benhart also has an exten- sive resume in industry. His previous position

architects started working on floor plans andother items before the engineering and construction management students started full-time workon the project. During this initial design stage, the architects brought in engineers andconstruction managers to consult as necessary. After design concepts were substantiallycomplete, the construction managers played a larger role in developing constructiondocumentation, specifications, and plans for construction.

the same as the previous “Return” buttons.After reviewing above tabs, students have learned construction information of a sluice gate fromperspective of construction materials, masonry work, earthwork and foundation. In the followingtabs, students will experience the construction process of a sluice gate by virtually building asluice gate by themselves. The Construction Process Simulation tab is unique to the previoustabs. There are seven sub-tabs under this tab, which are Start, Construction Plan, Foundation,Bottom Layer, Middle Layer, Top Layer, and Finish, working as a step-to-step process to build asluice gate. Figure 8 shows the Start tab and Construction Plan tab. Figure 8: MUSSN Construction Process Simulation Tab and Construction Plan

manner that allowsfor continuous improvement [1, 2].In addition to being an accreditation requirement for engineering programs, assessment effortshelp educators plan forward their education process with robust sound methods and data, ratherthan arbitrary methods based on trials and errors. The challenge of any program assessmentprocess has always been the development of a structured, systematic, and effective process thatencompasses all stakeholders, and provides opportunity for continuous improvement, as poorlyconstructed assessments can lead to loss of time, money, and educators’ energy [3]. Systematicassessments, though challenging, are necessary for program improvement [2, 4]. With the moveof California State Polytechnic University, Pomona’s

, building inspectors, suppliers,subcontractors, contractors, construction developers, real estate developers, researchers, andeducators [2][3]. However, most construction curricula are highly tailored to prepare students forproject management and estimating roles. Generally, project managers plan, budget, oversee, anddocument all aspects of their construction projects, while estimators determine the quantities andcosts of construction projects. Furthermore, many construction programs are structured to preparestudents mostly for commercial construction projects [1]. This is logical as most of the employersof undergraduate Construction students offer student opportunities to work on commercialconstruction projects. With the current focus of

A democracy demands that its citizens make personal and community decisionsabout issues in which scientific information plays a fundamental role, and they hence need aknowledge of science as well as an understanding of scientific methodology; 4. For somestudents, it will become a lifelong vocation or avocation; and 5.

This research involvedcommunity-based activity and engagement in Cieneguita, Panama as well as Lineville, AL.This research is the second phase of a multi-phase research effort. The research wasaccomplished as part of a scholarly capstone project in the Auburn University’s McWhorterSchool of Building Science (BSCI) Master of Building Construction (MBC) Program. Thepurpose of the capstone project is to demonstrate the student's ability to independently explore anew topic, demonstrate appropriate application of the
