question is “Whichphase(s) are present at point G and in what fractions?” A figure would be included in this questionin which students interpret and use to answer the question.In the traditional class, there were three high stake exams which means a student’s final gradein the class relied heavily on these exams. The percentage of each test in the traditional classcontributed to 75% of total grade, 25% for each of the three exams. Figure 4 shows thepercentage of incorrect questions according to type, split up by the three different exams fromthe traditional class. When observing the total percentage of questions wrong, Figure 4 showsthat students struggled the least with Exam 1, the second least with Exam 2, and the most withExam 3. Figure 4

introduces the core aspect of constructive alignment, thatlearning outcomes, activities, and assessments should be aligned and support one another. Biggs’development was to pair instructional alignment with a strong focus on the role of studentactivities in creating meaning, which he identified as the common core of constructivist learningtheories [1]. Biggs has periodically published updates of the model of constructive alignment in“Teaching for Quality Learning at University”, starting in 1999 and with the most recent 5thedition published in 2022 [6].Since the 1970’s, engineering education and the professional engineering field have becomeincreasingly diverse [7]. However, despite decades of concerted institutional efforts, parity in thefield

and instructor quality (3.43-3.57out of 4, in-person vs 3.74-3.94 out of 4, online) indicates that the higher self-assessedknowledge improvement for in-person training is not an artifact of unhappiness online or"better" instructor performance in-person.It has not been possible to follow-up differences in retention of these two models, due topractical circumstances of professional development within VBG Group, but hope that the resultfrom the question in-person: 7. How well do you think this course will contribute to thesustainability work within VBG Group? is closer to very good than pretty good, as in the survey.References[1] C. Fredriksson and S.
