Engineering and Computer Science at Ohio Northern University, where he currently teaches first-year programming and user interface design courses, and serves on the college’s Capstone Design Committee. Much of his research involves design education pedagogy, including for- mative assessment of client-student interactions, modeling sources of engineering design constraints, and applying the entrepreneurial mindset to first-year programming projects through student engagement in educational software development. Estell earned his BS in Computer Science and Engineering degree from The University of Toledo and both his MS and PhD degrees in computer science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.Dr. Stephany

The prevailingdifficulties of last several years have made it extremely challenging to succeed in the globaleconomy. It is anticipated, however, that the global construction output will recover to grow 70percent by 2025 – to $15 trillion.10 In view of aforementioned challenges and globalization, andin light of emerging construction technologies, the Construction Management (CM) Program inthe Lyles College of Engineering at Fresno State has recently revamped its curriculum to betterprepare future leaders of the construction industry.

Because of the smaller class size, the graduate course was structured more of a project-centric course and included very few traditional problem-based homework assignments. Amajority of the homework assignments required the MEPDG software for generating solutionsand were to be completed individually. There were two exams which were take-home, open-note format and individually completed. Because the graduate students are challenged to a morerigorous level, the MEPDG software was required to solve 50 percent of the problems in
