engineering departments themselves remain pri-marily concerned with how design directly impacts their teaching and interactions with students.As architects, engineers, and planners for more than a dozen collegiate engineering-departmentbuildings in the past decade, SmithGroupJJR has helped develop a series of best practices re-lated to facility design in this new era. While not the only firm to explore them, SmithGroupJJRhas organized these new best practices into five distinct trends that encourage active participa-tion, collaboration, and even spontaneity, reflecting an underlying ethic of student engagementfrom the freshman level up. We present them here, provide real-world examples from Smith-GroupJJR’s portfolio, and also propose methods of

determined.ALEKS Discussion:Figure 1 reflects a scatter plot that shows the relationship of the students’ average grade earnedbetween Calculus I, Physics I, and Statics courses and the associated ALEKS score. A point onthe scatter plot is determined by grade average (y-axis coordinate) and the ALEKS score (x-axiscoordinate). The trend line shows the tendency of the ALEKS score with a certain gradeoutcome.When comparing the individual class grades with the ALEKS score received, the graph showed agradual upward trend from lower scores to higher scores in relation to class grades. This is truefor each of the three classes. The three class grades where then averaged together and comparedto the ALEKS score. This trend line showed the students having the lower

A partial list of potential topics include: (1) Designs of deployableroofs for stadia; (2) Design of a kinetic façade system and its actuation mechanism; (3) Designof foldable furniture for efficiency or studio-type apartments; (4) New mechanical linkagesusing mechanisms from nature; (5) Actuation methods through external mechanisms, thermalvariation, and/or self-folding processes; (6) Applications of origami-based deployable systemsin architectural structures; (7) Mathematical algorithms for foldable geometrical forms; amongothers. Topics shall be updated to reflect new advances in materials, analyses and designmethods

assigned to mentor the student through the semester.The academic component of the internship includes the preparation of various reports thatdocument the student’s role in the company, how they are leveraging networking and growthopportunities and reflection on the internship experience itself.The student is required to coordinate an on-site, face-to-face meeting with their immediatesupervisor and faculty advisor to discuss their progress throughout the internship. The studentintern is required to take meeting notes to document the conversation with a focus onaccomplishments and continuous improvement areas. The faculty advisor uses a preparedgrading rubric for each assignment, reviews and grades the report and reports the correspondinggrades
