IntroductionAn age-old concern for every educational institution is how to provide the student with the bestenvironment for learning. For teaching network security related courses, the networkenvironment could be built using a collection of physical equipment such as servers, hubs,switches, bridges, routers, and intrusion detection and prevention system (IDPS) sensors1. Thisapproach provides students with an actual network to carry out experiments; however, theequipment is expensive and it is time consuming to physically set up all of the network devices.Instead of using physical equipment, virtualization technology is employed

, allowed us toobserve how internship experiences were impacted by CCs and employer support, resources,engagement. A key limitation of the case study approach however is generalizability. Whatapplies in other settings (states, colleges, programs) would require additional case study analysis. IX. ConclusionInternships have the potential to serve as an effective bridge to employment for communitycollege technology students. With the right structures and resourcing, they provide students with important hands-on real-work technology experiences, help them build professional skills, and cultivate self-efficacy and tools towards reaching their education and career goals. Since these are qualities that employers look for in job candidates

In general, these tools each provide the instructor with a feature that is not readilyavailable in many LMS platforms. This may be because the feature is not broadly applicable toall LMS users or because a group of instructors decided to create a new tool that would behelpful to them. As with all forms of educational technologies, instructors should evaluate the tool beforeadopting it for a course. When using a tool for grading and feedback, instructors would be wiseto understand how laws such as FERPA, other government regulations, and institutional policiesgovern what may be done with student work. A review of privacy policies for each tool shouldbe conducted. Proper review of these policies may necessitate consultation with other

Engineering education used to keep a dynamic balance swingingbetween technologies and sciences in the past ~180 years from the first day, when the first“engineering education” or “education for engineers” was initiated in 1747 as the Ecole Nationaledes Ponts et Chaussées (School of Civil Engineering) established in Paris, France (Dooge, 2006).At that time, most of the students were state employees with experiences and their curriculum wasauthentic projects from real engineering contexts (Coyle, 2009). Several decades later, more andmore technical universities in Europe have become reluctant to issue doctoral degrees to studentswith less scientific knowledge. From then on, scientific courses
