a path towards becoming a permanent part of thecurriculum is one of the author’s goals. However, before this can be achieved, continuous,consistent, and improved results must be demonstrated. This paper presented the results of thefirst 5 IDEAS showcases. Currently, preparation of the Tenth IDEAS showcase is underway.Until now, IDEAS has been developed, organized and implemented by the author (who is alsoteaching three courses per semester) and one teaching assistant provided by UCF’s departmentof Civil, Environmental, and Construction Engineering (CECE). CECE has also provided thefunding for buying medals and certificates for the event winners.The University of Central Florida has several laboratory facilities that provide free services

them to beworthwhile educational experiences through which students achieved specific outcomes. It wasessential to structure the projects with milestones, align with lecture classes and providecontinuous technical support and guidance. This has led to NEET creating a full-time budgetedproject instructor role termed the Lead Laboratory Technical Instructor who in collaboration withthe faculty and other teaching staff, is responsible for tactical execution and operational oversightof all the project-centric aspects of the thread. The outcomes from these mini-workshops arebeing aggregated to create the NEET Projects Handbook. This will help inform design of theprojects that are being planned in the NEET threads during 2018-19.To summarize, the
