All the air quality unit activities were developed by undergraduate studentsunder the guidance of faculty advisors. High school teachers mentoring the student learners inthe after-school STEM program iteratively reviewed all activities while these activities weredeveloped.Activity Organization The air quality assessment activities are outlined as follows.

In engineering designcourses, team projects are particularly ubiquitous, in part because collaboration is consideredcentral to professional engineering design practice and an essential skill for future designengineers to learn (Lingard & Barkataki, 2011). However, a substantial body of literature onundergraduate student teams in engineering design classes shows that effective collaborativepractices are not automatic for students, and there is a wide range in student competencies atestablishing effective communication processes, psychological safety, and
