At a minimum,seamless learning environments involve the intentional, collaborative efforts of institutionalleaders, staff, and faculty, and a shared focus on student engagement, which facilitates astudent’s potential to learn, grow, and persist

Lab elements also improve students’ data collection, analysis,and evaluation skills. Therefore, the author included more lab components for both courses. Alllab assignments must be carefully designed to meet ABET outcome 5 and outcome 6. Forexample, labs will be done in a group of two or three students to reinforce their communicationand collaboration skills. Proper lab reports and data analysis are required for each lab assignmentto practice their ability to interpret data and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.Other course objectives, i.e., determining the

In this context, successfulengineering decisions concerning the water infrastructure must be informed by an understandingof environmental, social, and political impacts and constraints. The future environmentalengineers tasked with tackling these 21st century challenges are ill-served by a 20th centuryeducation that presents technical systems in isolation and does not address the design andoperation of infrastructure as a

Whatever the context, the writing results in some type of action. In academia,writing tends to be longer, with some ambiguity or uncertainty in conclusions. The studentsexpressed that in industry, if someone “hedges,” then their writing will not be effective orconvincing. In academia, in contrast, ambiguity is often present, and writers are more cautiousabout making definite assertions.Theme #3: Audience awarenessAll four participants realized that they

ability to provide rich learning contexts thatcan help students activate cognitive processes required to solve real-life professional problems(2). These learning contexts are also more suitable to support an active and involved learner (3).These learners will develop a deeper comprehension of the ideas and concepts presented in theeducational context, and will also be able to transfer the learned skills to new situations (4).Previous research on multimedia instruction, however, showed that despite clear strengths ofthese learning contexts, not considering various aspects of students' perceptions engaged inmultimedia instruction can reduce the effectiveness of the instructional process (e.g. 5-9).
