E-Portfolios in education are ideally student-centered and outcomes-based, i.e. students use e-portfolios to evidence learning that showcases authentic work, connections between ideas andcourses over time, and culminating achievements. However, on-the-ground implementation of e-portfolios poses some practical challenges in meeting these goals. First, introducing e

, WAAbstractTeaching technology in construction engineering and management curriculum has been a topic ofeducation research for some time. The influx of Building Information Modeling has dominatedthe literature in recent years, while data analytics and visualization have increased importance inthe field. Many programs continue to grapple with teaching technology alongside thefundamental concepts of the discipline. To address these challenges, the ConstructionManagement Department at the University of Washington has conducted a holistic review oftechnology across the curriculum for our undergraduate program. In recent years, we developed anew prerequisite class to better prepare students for learning the technologies across estimating,scheduling, and building

All civil engineeringprograms are required to provide a broad education, which includes several design subdisciplinecourses with attendant laboratory experience. Consequently, the credits available for projectmanagement courses are severely limited. While a construction management curriculum mayinclude two project management courses and possibly a separate scheduling course, there areinsufficient credits available in a civil engineering curriculum to provide such coverage.Consequently, CE Management is

Freshmen students are suddenly confronted with classes that seem to havelittle relevance to the discipline.
