idealteaching tools. Furthermore, the AASHTO Guide Specifications for Design of PedestrianBridges represent a manageable introduction to formal engineering design for a semesterlong project. This paper describes a one credit hour, semester long, project undertaken byMArch students alongside a required course in Structural Engineering Design. Studentsundertook conceptual design of pedestrian bridges. After a class wide study of innovativeprecedents, they worked in small groups and were required to choose and analyze a site,and propose an initial structural scheme. A minimum clear span was required to pushmore ambitious spanning strategies. They then performed a Finite Element Analysis andsized all the primary structural members of the bridge. The

knowledgeable about how to sustain energy efficiency through lighting. The LEED forHomes Rating System provides minimal description for achieving lighting credits towardcertification and little supplemental information about lighting to educate the homeowner orother lay person. As a result, homeowners are left to rely on their own consumer informationwith regard to maintaining an energy efficient lighting system and over time can become lesssatisfied with the aesthetic and functional results.This paper reviews and examines an educational experience across interior design andarchitectural technology disciplines to learn about energy efficient lighting and apply it in aconsumer education effort. Specifically, it describes the pedagogy of a design project

Management StudentsAbstract:To design projects most efficiently, architecture and engineering students need to develop theirspatial reasoning in order to augment their ability to visualize and manipulate two-dimensionaland three-dimensional objects. At our institution, architectural engineering and constructionmanagement students collectively attend 2 non-design courses (Graphics I (manual drafting) andMaterials and Methods of Construction I courses) in their freshmen year. Other than briefexercises, such as the incorporation of a field trip to a construction site, a soil sieve test lab, andprovision of material samples and construction videos in the classroom, both of these courses areheavily dependent on two and three-dimensional graphics to

Students would develop constructionindustry expertise with emphasis on team building. Career opportunities in construction arefound throughout the world and include the following industries: construction companies,government agencies, architectural/engineering/environmental firms, industrial firms andmanufacturing/materials suppliers.ReasonThe current recession has had a dramatic impact on all aspects of the design and constructionindustry. “There are some very serious challenges facing the construction industry that aremotivating new approaches to how we design, build, operate, and maintain buildings

Content Area Two: A two-track phase which involved covering 3-D operations specific to Rhino 3D while simultaneously covering 2-D generative computing operations in Grasshopper (Version 8.0004). 3. Content Area Three: A single track 3-D generative computing track using both 2-D and 3-D operations in Grasshopper, culminating in a “design exploration project” assignment in which students were to use Rhino 3D and Grasshopper to generate three discrete alternatives using the Grasshopper “bake” operations.The sequence of the tracks used in this instructional strategy is illustrated in Figure 7

This paper covers a broad expanse of pedagogy and brings to thediscussion an examination of immersive, experiential education that is project-based.

In the first of my two tech courses, which focuses on building envelope performance,every student is assigned a recent and rather “formally persuasive” house for the semester. Page 22.742.6Originally, my selections were of classic/late/post-modern vintage - i.e., houses which offeredgood documentation for redrawing or critical essays for expanding the scope of the study - butin short time I realized that not only did a “lure of the new” hold greater attraction to thestudents’ and my

To makematters worse, the emission from the equipments are mostly carbon-mono-oxide and can beinhaled by the workers who are working in a small confined place. The young inspector believesthat he could lose his job if he presses the issue because supervisor does not want to spend anyextra money or time.The inspector experiences a major conflict between his obligation to be a loyal employee and hisobligation to protect the health and safety of the workers.

Inside the pencil and color portfolios, pencilmaster drawing and marker master drawing are also need to be included. This 17-week-longstudio course is designed to allow students to explore basic drawing skills using basic threemedia. Typically, the class starts with a short lecture of the new concept and principlefollowed by an on site demonstration. The demonstration is conducted through the Elmocamera that can project the drawings to the screen. After the demonstration, a drawingexercise will be assigned to the class.

Construction toys and physical demonstrators rank the second, the 3-Dinteractive demonstration tool the third, the real-time simulation sessions the fourth and theconventional mathematical approach sessions the last.
