muchpotential to increase knowledge, and do not have much credibility. A programming example mightbe teaching an application – for example Power Point. This is unlikely to increase knowledge aboutprogramming, and is unlikely to have external credibility for programming. Interestingly, this canhappen. The most likely use for this framework is to provide a means of classifying experiences.However, this can also be used to balance experiences – particularly making sure that most of theexperiences increase knowledge. Additionally, the increase must make sense in terms of thedevelopment of the student. Proceedings of the 2009 American Society for Engineering Education Pacific Southwest Regional Conference

In the past, universities were willing to accept highly experiencedpractitioners who could teach in the new discipline since there was no traditional academic sectorfrom which to draw fully qualified professors. Over, the years, academic requirements have beenstrengthened in the construction discipline to bring it into line with the rest of the university sofaculty must have a terminal degree and be engaged in research, as well as teach. There areenough academic programs providing terminal degrees related to construction to more-or-lessmeet this demand.
