Her research interests are influenced by her experiences in industry and are centered on team dynamics, conflict management, professional skills development, and intercultural awareness. She aims to leverage her industry experiences to bridge academia and industry through her research, teaching practices, and interventions aimed towards student and faculty professional development. As an artist, she is also interested in art, creativity, and expression in engineering. Her research also centers on non-traditional methods, transformation, and critical reflection - aspiring for more equitable and inclusive practices in engineering. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024

The workshop at ASEE 2023 [1] was crafted with these imperatives in mind, aiming to bridgethe gap between theoretical constructs and their real-world applications. It focused on PBL, aneducational approach that fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration throughcomplex and challenging projects that reflect the ambiguity of real-life scenarios. Hands-onactivities were not merely ancillary; they were central to the learning process, ensuring thatparticipants could apply theoretical principles in a tangible setting, reinforcing their learningthrough direct experience.

However, this ranking is not reflected in the findings ofthis study, indicating a mismatch between the expected and actual contributions of these twocategories to the overall LEED score. This inconsistency between the points attained by LEED-certified projects and the assigned weight to these categories may stem from inadequateweighting criteria for certain categories, underscoring the need for periodic review of LEEDstandards and incorporation of insights from existing certified projects. This finding is in linewith Da Silva and Ruwanpura (2009) indicating that the Materials and Resources category wasthe lowest credit category in terms of credit achievement.The discrepancies highlighted above indicate that

Here, we will use a definition of gestures widely adoptedwithin the educational and developmental psychology literature: movements of the hands/armsthat sometimes co-occur with speech but could also occur alone, revealing the mentalrepresentations of the speaker (Mcneill, 1992). Gestures not only reflect the thoughts of thespeaker (Hostetter & Alibali, 2008) but also have an impact on the listener’s comprehension ofthe speaker’s message (Hostetter, 2011).
