However, literature thatprovides insights into developing a specific case study in construction engineering andmanagement is scarce. To fill this knowledge gap, this paper presents the dynamics ofdeveloping an educational case study to explore the implementation of target value design(TVD). This case study was developed for engineering and construction management students toformulate, discuss, and decide on strategies, actions, and solutions to provide the best value tothe project owner when implementing TVD. This work-in-progress paper focuses on the pilottest when developing the case study. Pre-class

At the time of writing, no direct data has been collected as this data is forthcomingin summer and fall of 2024. Any faculty elsewhere who have struggles in areas of junior faculty mentoring,the balance between research and teaching, and growing interdisciplinary research at your institution maybenefit from the lessons we are learning.KEYWORDSinterdisciplinary; water research; faculty development; community connections; integrated research andeducation

Students’ work resulted in anumber of internal posters and PowerPoint presentations at university-wide STEM researchsymposia, four senior project reports with posters and presentations, and one MS thesis. Students’designs involving a novel octocopter with overlapping propellers were also used in writing anexternal grant application. Furthermore, all students engaged in this vertically integrated project(VIP) were retained or graduated. In addition, 20% of the students obtained MS degrees. It is hopedthat this work will add to the VIP body of knowledge and will inspire readers to implement similarprojects in their own institutions.Introduction

strategies like peer-instruction[61].The instructor hopes to improve the reception of the Student Board Notes by more firmlycommitting no more than a quarter of lecture time (15 minutes) to (a) students writing their noteson the board and (b) reviewing and correcting those notes, with the remaining class time devotedto example problems and quantitative homework problems. Due to poor student preparation seenvia either insufficient or incorrect notes, in-class time spent on Student Board Notes in the firstyear of implementation often took over half of the class. Overall, faculty agree with studentsabout the imbalance in class time between conceptual understanding and quantitative elementsand look forward to addressing this shortcoming in the next

It can be definedas “recognition (i.e., beliefs that they are seen as a good student in the subject by peers, parents, andteachers) as being the type of person that can do a particular subject” [17, p. 2]. In the context of thisstudy, recognition reflects both interpersonal validation from engineering peers and mentors as well aspersonal internalization of external recognition. Through others identifying their engineering talent andtechnical contributions, students begin to think of themselves as good engineers worthy of that field. Withengineering interest
