Similarly, research indicates that employers recognize agap between their expectations and the skills of graduate students in engineering (Markes, 2006;Ramadi E, Ramadi S and Nasr., 2016; Saeki and Blom 2011), and recent graduates recognizethat communication skills, as well as broad analytical and technical knowledge, are important forsuccess in the professional world (Michalaka and Giogli, 2020). These policy documents, inconjunction with the perspectives of employers and students, point to the need for atransformation in teaching-learning that puts students at the center of the process and focuses ondeveloping skills essential for the workplace.To achieve this transformation in the training of engineers, a

artificial lift (AL) systems. Artificial lift well candidates are thosecompleted in formations that have economically viable reserves and sufficient permeability for the fluids to move tothe wellbore but do not have sufficient reservoir drive to lift those fluids to the surface.2.3. Gas Lift modelGas lift is a method of artificial lift that uses an external source of high-pressure gas for supplementing formationgas to lift the well`s fluids. The principle of gas lift is that gas injected into the tubing reduces the density of thefluids in the tubing, and the bubbles have a “scrubbing” action on the liquids. Both factors act to lower the flowingbottom-hole pressure (BHP) at the bottom of the tubing. There are two basic types of a gas lift today

by the assumption that if a person reasons on what they aretold it will lead to appropriate behaviour, as for example, with sex education in schools.The scholar-academic ideology is rooted in the disciplines and education is the initiation of astudent into a (the) discipline(s). This ideology is widely supported by academics and prevailsamong politicians both of whom wilfully ignore research to the contrary, particularly in thearea of learning, notwithstanding the debate about what it is that constitutes a discipline. It isin this context that the contentious attempt to define engineering education research as adiscipline [5] needs to be viewed. It seems to be thought that researchers will gain bothidentity and respect if it is considered to

common than the facultyinitially assumed. Faculty were originally concerned about how they could make the labactivities as similar as possible to help students navigate the basics of learning the roboticsystems. However, this may be a minor concern, as the CRBs have proven intuitive, mainlywhen used concurrently with the IRBs. Students often finished tasks on the CRB in less timethan IRB when given the same task. Students are learning more in less time. This has openedspace in the curriculum and created an opportunity for student-faculty research in previouslytricky areas, given the time, resource, and safety constraints of the IRB-only space.References[1] S.
