Literature ReviewKlein (1990), an interdisciplinarian, provides a basic and widely-cited definition ofinterdisciplinarity, “Interdisciplinarity is a means of solving problems and answering questionsthat cannot be satisfactorily addressed using single methods or approaches” (p. 196). Thisdefinition encapsulates the field of architectural engineering. In this particular study, thedisciplines were housed in departments of architecture, construction science, civil engineering,electrical engineering, engineering technology and industrial distribution, and mechanicalengineering.

a clear understanding of this research focus. Servicelearning is defined by Bringle and Hatcher 4 (p.4) as “course-based, credit-bearingeducational experience in which students (a) participate in an organized serviceactivity that meets identified community needs and (b) reflect on the serviceactivity in such a way as to gain a further understanding of course content, abroader appreciation of the discipline, and an enhanced sense of civicresponsibility”. The first component of this definition is straightforward andeasily fits into the typical architectural educational experience noted above. Thereare few architectural education programs that do not explore the designopportunities that real communities can offer.The second component of the

As an added comment, they were told that they were one of the best classes I havehad and that I know they would not let me down and that I had full confidence in them; anadditional emotional incentive. This covered the areas of instrumentality and valence.The students seemed engaged with the rational I gave them for learning this material but the onlyquestions that were brought up were those

The equivalent classGPA is shown for each question, based on a 4.0 scale.Direct assessment provides the most accurate measure of a student’s knowledge in a givencourse.

For an “A” the value is 9,“B” is 8, “C” is 7, “D” is 6 and “F” is 5. There are minimum ALEKS placement scores for Mathcourses.
