These results raiseconcerns about the lack of interdisciplinary approaches and the limited scope of the education ofour students. However, potential proposals in this regard face enormous constraints includingrestricted class schedules and credit unit requirements, non-existent coordination betweendifferent departments and schools, and dominant technical priorities of faculty. In addition, weface limited student pre-existent motivation for courses that they may perceive as no straight job-related, as they are mainly unaware of what is at the frontiers and beyond

In this paper, WBEs are defined as paidengagements for students as they work on solving real-world problems, while performing tasksand projects in partnership with an employer or community partner. Three types of WBEs arerepresented: internships (Study 1), apprenticeships (Study 2), and company employees (Study 3).All three studies used the Socio-Technical Integration Research (STIR) methodology which hasbeen established in 80 studies worldwide and over a dozen peer-reviewed publications.

Progress in technology does account for a large part of economic growth, but itis not a new idea, not even when Schumpeter was writing about it. Innovation to create newPLCs to satisfy venture capitalists was a driver for the first European settlers in North America inthe early 1600s.17 It is embedded in the Constitution of the United States.18 It is still a verywidely and very strongly held belief and a perennial rationale for the benefits, and the costs

Other research has shown thatstudents prefer concrete active learning activities to abstract reflective learning by a ratio of 5 to112. The general conclusion is that active modes of teaching and learning create the best matchfor today’s students. These can include: small-group discussions and projects, in-classpresentations and debates, experiential exercises, field experiences, simulations, and case studies.Silberman also discusses the social side of learning, “[Students] tend to become more engaged inlearning because they are doing it with their peers.

On the one hand, itis notable that at least one interviewee was able to provide a fairly nuanced comparison of thetwo concepts, describing morality as “more of a personal thing” and ethics as “more of a codifiedstandard.” On the other hand, only a few students even attempted this delineation, and those whodid typically fell short of a satisfactory response.
