Motivation and Maturity of Engineering and Engineering Technology Students with and without Co-Op ExperienceAbstractExperience-based education in the form of Co-Op is generally accepted as having a positivecorrelation with a student’s academic and early career performance. Unfortunately, most of theevidence is anecdotal or based on statistical studies of large databases. It does not explain whyand how a Co-Op experience correlates with enhanced student or employee performance. Thispaper proposes a model that can explain how Co-Op experience can result in better grades inschool and better performance at work. The paper also describes an experiment performed todetermine if students with Co-Op experience are more motivated
