Workforce1. Introduction Throughout the world, there is an agreement that there is a gap between the skillslearned in school and those needed in the workforce [1]. Engineering curricula mustcontinuously change to prepare students for industry needs [2], and universities should alignwhat they teach to the most demanded skills required in the workforce [3]. However, this isnot always the case, and empirical evidence has shown a gap between the undergraduateengineering program's skills taught and industry needs [4-6]. Several studies have revealedthe gap in water-related undergraduate programs [7], and such a gap can stand in the way ofmeeting the needs of the water and wastewater industry [8]. According to UNESCO-UNEVOC International

Adobeabout VR Education, it states that “Virtual reality can be used to enhance student learning andengagement. VR education can transform the way educational content is delivered; it works onthe premise of creating a virtual world — real or imagined — and allows users not only see it butalso interact with it. Being immersed in what you’re learning motivates you to fully understand it.It’ll require less cognitive load to process the information.”[1] There is no limit to thedevelopment of VR. It makes knowledge more accessible and change the way people normally seeand perceived education. Recent years, with the improvement in high speed computing especially of high resolutiongraphics and the user interaction devices, the technology of virtual

Recognizing that studentscannot learn every manufacturing process in the same detail, it becomes necessary to stimulatetheir lifelong learning skills, and that becomes another possible learning objective. A newpolymer processes module was developed that attempts to combine the following studentlearning objectives: 1. Show curiosity about polymer processes 2. Consider customers in design of a polymer product 3. Make decisions based on economic analysis 4. Gain knowledge about polymer processes 5. Increase motivation for continued learning about polymer processesThe new polymer processing module was

Defining asustainable assessment model is essential for accreditation as an element of an institution's processfor continuous improvement. In the field of assessment in higher education, practitioners regularlymention two features as key for success at implementing a sustainable assessment model, i) it hasto be faculty-driven, and ii) it has to become part of the curriculum. In this paper, we present asustainable assessment model that incorporates the two key elements.The

better than the quality of the textbooks in their othercourses. Overall, students reported using the textbook in this course more frequently thantextbooks in a typical course.IntroductionHigher education costs have been increasing more rapidly than inflation over the last fewdecades. From 2002 to 2012, tuition, fees, and textbook prices increased at a rate of 3 times therate of inflation [1]. These increasing costs and a complex financial aid system contribute tostudents taking longer to earn a degree or to leave school without a degree [2]. One way todecrease textbook cost is to use open educational resources (OER), which are licensed in a waythat allow everyone to engage in the “5R activities”: retain, reuse, revise, remix and redistribute[3

While it seems true that the health, safety, andwelfare of the public should be high priorities for engineers, there are certain situations where itmay not be possible to hold both safety and welfare paramount at the same time. As it is worded,the code of ethics provides no guidance as to which should be given final priority in such cases.The concepts of health, safety, and welfare have been central to engineering ethics since 1935when a Society Code of Ethics was first suggested for consideration in the May issue of TheAmerican Engineer [14].

As such, architectural engineering programs have an obligation toteach the skill set of load determination, application, and analysis within their curriculum.Fortunately, most jurisdictions in the United States have adopted the International BuildingCode [1] and thus ASCE 7 (American Society of Civil Engineering, Minimum Design Loads forBuildings and Other Structures [2]). Based on this adoption, the ASCE 7 code is the naturalchoice to use for the determination of loadings within a course that focuses on the topic ofstructural loadings.
