Despite these technologies being taught mostlyin computer science curricula than in engineering programs, the authors indicate that ethicalconsiderations, biases, and social implications are often not adequately addressed in education[19]. One of the four identified strategies for higher education is to redesign their programs toincorporate "hands-on data fluency and management courses". They recommend that therecommended data fluency courses should include data management, statistics, machine learning,data ethics, and the social implications of future intelligent systems to manage the increasingcomplexity and

The lines between AR, education, and construction industry in the red cluster aremore distinct and pronounced than those between CM, engineering, architecture, projectmanagement, design and technology in the green cluster in this sample.
