Those who attended only a few sessions (one to three) had a 66.92 ±0.07 % likelihood of passing the class. Students with regular session attendance (four or moresessions) had a fairly substantial increased likelihood of passing the course, 77.41 ± 0.09 %.This difference is statistically significant with a p value of less than 0.0001.

Roger, who has worked on both the federal and local side ofpublic housing development, emphasized that addressing housing needs goes far beyond theactual building of a home. That is, it is critical to have the knowledge to design homes that areenergy efficient and culturally relevant to the needs of those living in the home, but so too is thefinancial literacy required for acquiring homes and navigating financial institutions.

Through a cursory readingof the design courses at the institutions mentioned above, there is no explicit requirement forthese courses to ensure deliverables of conceptual designs, let alone, conceptual designs whichare created in CAD [13] [14] [15] [16].
