In a study of over 6000 women at 53 institutions, happiness with theirmajor was one of the main differences between those who stayed in engineering and thoseleaving it8.Previous research suggests that student satisfaction with their undergraduate experience ispositively affected by departmental atmosphere, including quality of teaching, class size, andfaculty support1,6,8, being able to work on research with a faculty member or independently1, and “Proceedings of the 2002 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference &

Education, Learning Research, On-lineEducation, Distance EducationIntroduction On-line courses, hybrid courses, and massively open on-line courses (MOOCs) are becomingmore common. Such courses offer advantages for students in that they do not necessarily need to come tocampus to attend classes. This is particularly beneficial to students who cannot attend traditional classesdue to inconvenient travel or conflicting work schedules. Such courses are easily implemented and areeffective in replacing lectures in many fields of study. However, there are unique challenges for coursesthat involve a laboratory. Many engineering courses fall into the latter category as they often contain a laboratory. Some ofthese laboratories may be suitable

It would also be important to know how the labs impact student learning andsatisfaction within the courses.Construction management students are hands-on learners which has been observed byconstruction educators in many different courses. Construction students cherish the idea oflearning the concepts in the class and applying the knowledge in labs and within theirinternships. While some may challenge the efficacy of the Meyers-Briggs personality research,for this study, research into personality traits was only used to help describe the constructionmanagement students as hands-on activity-based learners using a structured researchmethodology as it applied to construction management students and construction

However, since many of thereflective practices that characterise professional discourses were acquired throughknowledge in action, the inclusion of professional education into the universities has been,somewhat, detrimental to professional knowledge. The rhetoric of the university replaced thevocational elements of professional knowledge and a kind of knowledge schism between theuniversity and professional practice has developed. The new knowledge acquired throughuniversity research was at odds with the real world of professional practice.
