ideas need to be brought into the field. Therefore, a new simulation-based teaching systemsuch as the use of vitual and segmented reality technologies is needed to better prepare studentsfor their future careers as professional engineers. By implementing a new engineering teaching system that considers the continually evolvingtechnologies emerging in the engineering field, students can advance highway design and perfectit. Without such a teaching system, students will not be able to get their transportation classesfull experience, whether it be given online or face-to-face. Only then, the impact of anyemergency events such as the COVID-19 pandemic can be minimized. 2. Literature Review Transportation

In his Lyceum speech he states hisconviction that Americans have the responsibility to transmit what they have been given to allfuture generations. Lincoln was speaking early in his career on the perpetuation of Americanpolitical institutions. In the opening of a very serious speech that through its publication helped Proceedings of the 2007 ASEE North Midwest Sectional Conferenceto awaken a broad interest in Lincoln the politician, Lincoln proclaims two responsibilities ofevery American citizen.

Sometimes these issues are not welldocumented in the published literature.The 2013 offering of the course had some first year “teething troubles” because the studentsfound it hard to find the motivation to devote time to the non-technical issues, which theyperceived as being less valuable for their future careers. This 2013 student survey commentregarding the course objectives is typical of the some of the feelings evident: “If the courseaimed to waste my time it certainly succeeded”. Some comments from student evaluations werequite positive, however (particularly regarding the failure case study project), and the course wasjudged to have more or less achieved its intended purpose.
