finished at the same time, one might have to wait until the second is done;  parallel teaching – in this mode, the instruction is planned jointly by both (or more) teachers, but it is delivered to only half of the class. An example given by researchers is the use of this type of teaching to explain different points of view of a same topic where each half of the class is instructed on the same topic, but through two different points of view. Then, the whole class can come back together and discuss on the topic using those two points of view;  alternative teaching – in this type of co-teaching, one instructor is responsible for a larger

The main motivation for instructors to incorporatethis software in their classes is to expose students to technology they will encounter aspractitioners, especially significant since contractors view these drawings as a legal descriptionof their scope of work. Therefore, the production and interpretation of the documents requiresthat they exhibit a high level of accuracy, specificity, and clarity.This paper focuses on the use of Bluebeam markup and grading in architectural engineeringcourses to enable communication between faculty and students during the iterative structuraldesign process.

Students wrote they felt “refreshed” after the meditation experience and were going to try to add reflective time to focus on stress management into their schedules. Many students were very concerned about their Life Stressors Index and wrote about coping mechanisms they plan to employ in order to improve their own lives. They also wrote about how they will look for signs of distress in their construction crews and work to improve work-life balance for themselves and their subordinates.Week 4 – Leadership, Personality, and Learning Styles The module begins by juxtaposing the definitions of leadership and management.

the beams. Despite this,prompting the students to think about shear failure in this context improved their understandingof this topic. It should also be noted that a few students commented in the survey that theywished lecture had provided more guidance as to how to layout reinforcing prior to beamfabrication. While the request is understandable, the variety in reinforcing configurations alsoadded a creative component and a wider sample of results. This would not be the case iflectures had a more prescriptive approach to reinforcement for the lab. The individuals thatrequested this may have brought down the score for lecture preparedness slightly, but the overallscore was still strong and there are no plans to modify this approach in future
