At the same time, economic conditions and agrowing interest in sustainability are changing the way that construction is performed, especiallyin the residential market. This change has to do with areas that are required to effectively manageresidential projects such as business plans, marketing plans, sales plans, and subcontractoragreements. The job market for CM graduates seeking jobs in residential construction has beencompetitive. In today’s tight job market, a green building professional designation will not onlyhelp set a college graduate apart from their peers, but it will also keep their educationcurrent2,3,4,7,10.There has been a push by many universities to

For the final course project, each studentdesigned and created his or her own silk scarf using the techniques learned in class.The scarves created by the students were outstanding and exhibited their willingness totry a new design. For example, one student wanted to create the illusion of a branch ofbamboo growing along the length of his scarf. He planned three different colors: abrown foundation representing the dirt, followed by yellow changing gradually to greenand finally blue. He used Shibori techniques to design the bamboo branch, and usedscraps of silk to determine the combination of mordant and dye to yield the shades hedesired.The students kept the scarves they dyed, so photos of them

Her area of research is centered around the concept of humanized intelligence, the process of embedding human cognitive capability into the control path of autonomous systems. This work, which addresses issues of autonomous control as well as aspects of interaction with humans and the surrounding environment, has resulted in over 180 peer-reviewed pub- lications in a number of projects – from scientific rover navigation in glacier environments to assistive robots for the home.

Flow pipes are manufactured in standarddimensions, and from lookup tables the students conclude that the smallest possible pipe suitablefor this project is a 2" OD BWG 10 pipe with a diameter of 𝑑 = 43.99 mm. We also recognize thevalue of Reynolds number to ensure that our assumption about turbulent flow is correct.After these calculations, the students can change some of the premises and recalculate. Say, forinstance, that we cool the water to 5°C and use the same (standard) pipe diameter, the pressure dropis reduced with 40

It contains both small hands on activities as well as short termhomework style assignments. The hands on activities and projects are designed to fosterteamwork in an open-ended problem solving environment. Formal assessments includeindividual as well as team homework problems, presentations, and group projects / activitiesthroughout the semester. Several of the individual and team homework problems containelements of multiple mechanical engineering areas, giving them a “tree-top view” of mechanicalengineering as they work their way through several focus areas.The objectives of this paper are to explain the lecture and lab content

First, faculty are organized into CoPs through which they will innovatetheir courses. Second, faculty commit to an implement-evaluate development cycle for which theCoP must commit to collecting data about their innovations and using the data to inform iterativedevelopment. Finally, we expect that the adoption of RBIS will naturally emerge without anymandates from the leadership team or administration.

At the end ofinstruction, students in both conditions played both the Posterlet and Photolet assessment games(described below).In both conditions, the lessons integrated the subject matter content within the context of a seriesof design projects. In Math, design projects included designing a house or a candy box. InSocial Studies, the project was to design a fair system for making class-level decisions. InScience, the project was to design a game that would teach people about factors contributing tothe stability of ecosystems. Throughout the instruction, we introduced and

Some students focused on specific aspects of the process such asmodeling and planning. These are practices that they did not often engage in during theirengineering and design experiences. Two students explicitly stated that in high school, they usedthe scientific method rather than the engineering design process.
