Environmental impact must be considered in alldecisions during the design process as the camp focuses on teaching about sustainability and itseffect on the environment. Each year, new projects have been added to support our ongoingrelationship with Walden West. These projects offer the opportunity for engineering students tobuild systems related to sustainability and reach a new cohort of middle school students with anexpanded offering of curriculum

The STEM Partnership of San Diego (SPSD) which, as awork in progress in its fourth of five years, is a student success initiative built on best practicesof the Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement (MESA) Program and grant fundsfrom the National Science Foundation (NSF). The SPSD provides essential academic and careerdevelopment services to students majoring in STEM fields. Services include internships and/orundergraduate research experiences for diverse students. More than 600 STEM students areserved annually at the community college and university level. The best practices of MESAfocus on student groups that historically had low levels of attainment; SPSD enhances academicsupport

10 ConclusionsThis paper has given a brief history of the development of team teaching at Embry-RiddleAeronautical University, Prescott campus, as practiced between the AE and COM faculty in AE421: Aircraft Detail Design. A description of the organization of this senior design class into four(4) primary tasks (i.e., engineering lecture, communications lecture, team meetings and informalbriefings, and open work sessions) was provided; three of the key alterations made to AE 421 inthe last eight (8) years to improve lecture material on required documentation, to provide morefrequent opportunities for students to practice public speaking, and to

(1982)The validity, applicability, and measurability of situational leadership style have been subjects ofmany researches in various fields, including education [6]. Hersey, Angelini, and Carakushansky(1982) conducted two training courses for small groups of managers, including total of 60 peoplein four groups, and implemented variations of situational leadership styles. Authors reported thatchanges in leadership style have a positive impact on the outcomes of training [5]. In aqualitative
