Research further shows that minority students learn better when there is interaction between their experiences and their ideas [13]. More specifically, Hispanic students learn more effectively in collaborative environments that encourage team-based projects [14].

even when it is not required.In the case of engineering education for 2020, many of the educational objectives discussedabove would need collaborating partners to realize them. For instance, offering engineeringprograms at a distance is the need of the day. Very few engineering programs are offered at adistance currently. One of the main difficulties in offering engineering programs, especiallyundergraduate programs, is the difficulty in offering hands-on experience at a distance. Whilesimulation and other technology based efforts are being tried, they are not an ideal substitute forreal-world, hands-on training. But this problem could be solved effectively by entering intocollaborative arrangements with local institutions in other countries

Theauthors encourage incorporating a new field like that of energy harvesting into the classroom andlab. The collaborative sharing of information for educational purposes is mutually beneficial toall parties. An organized introduction to a new field can be very beneficial in the learningprocess and lead to more contribution to the field and satisfaction by the participants.
