Teachers may want to consider how their classrooms can become moreinteractive, and what opportunities exist for students to teach each other some of the content(e.g., pairing students so the stronger students share what they’re learning, and they learnto say it in new ways).Reduce distance. Break down the distance between student and teacher by making surethat career mentoring and personal advising are available and your students know whereand how. Encourage students to take risks and see failure as a step toward success.Explicitly discuss the importance of finding mentors in the profession as well as how toidentify possible mentors and how to establish and cultivate relationships with them.Consider

CSR had previously not beentaught in the course, as it focused on the technical curriculum. In Fall 2016, CSR was introducedto the class through one assignment in which students watched a video about Chevron’s AlderGas Field Project and answered questions about Chevron’s Health, Safety, Security,Environment and Social Responsibility (HSSE-SR) and Sustainable Development practices.Fall 2016 Senior

Who teaches RDM can vary just asmuch as the audience: librarians teaching alone or in teams, librarian and faculty combinations,librarian and IT professionals, and any combination of the above including guest speakers. Often,there is preparatory work that may include interviews, laboratory reviews, surveys or other toolsthat aid in getting informative information to facilitate the work toward RDM instruction.

One of the most effective means ofimproving retention is to provide authentic STEM experiences involving “…hypothesis-driven, hands-on experimentation in which the outcome is unknown, peer-to-peer support, faculty-student interactions, and academic support…. Classroom-based strategies that engage students in authentic STEM experiences are in line with evidence-based instructional strategies that require moving away from lectures and recipe-based laboratory exercises toward more open-ended and student-driven STEM experiences….

Product realization-based learning seems to be a natural model for learning manufacturing engineering [7]. Theproduct realization-based learning can be understood as a part of the project-based learning (PBL)pedagogy which is well accepted in education [8, 9].

It has been used as a community-engaged learning modality for sustainability[10], [11], [12]. Unlike the controlled laboratory settings typical of science and engineering,transdisciplinary settings are complex, dynamic social systems with open boundaries, non-linearbehavior, self-organization, and recursive interactions among agents that hold widely differentvalues. In short, transdisciplinarity is a dynamically complex system. Those who have used thislearning modality report emergent results, often
