In the United States, most constructionmanagement schools receive accreditation through either the American Council of ConstructionEducation (ACCE) or the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET). The paperproposes using an Extended Reality (XR) preliminary framework for active learning that satisfiesACCE Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) for all construction courses. The frameworkestablishes consistent teaching pedagogies to meet learning outcome requirements. Assessingstudents effectively during the pandemic, particularly in virtual classes, remains challenging.However, the XR framework can be deployed to students of any modality, thus solving thisproblem.

found positive associations between internships and career-relevant variables. Theoretical and empirical studies indicated that internships have positive effects on engineering education. Engineering and technology students learn to gain much experience from different approaches [12]. Our findings show that internships also have a crucial effect on subsequent academic outcomes. These effects influence prior academic achievement, and they hold for both the advantaged and disadvantaged [13]. The analysis from a national dataset of 2004 seniors suggests that students who spent more time in a cooperative education program are better at ensuring that a process or product meets a variety of

Furthermore, recent work on engineering and technology students'perceptions of using new technology suggests an over-focus on technical aspects within thoseprograms, to the detriment of social implications [2].Considering the societal impact of the built environment on the population, this lag seemsunjustified and concerning. Furthermore, history has several examples that indicate the effect ofpoorly functioning construction and infrastructure on the deployment of unsatisfactory servicelevels, high operation and maintenance costs, and unjustified
