Architecture and Urban Design from Columbia University. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Summer scholarship project: Designing and building a multi- purpose micro-farm structure as a pedagogical strategy for Architectural Engineering Technology studentsAbstractConstructing a full-scale mock-up is commonly used in the architectural industry, and it isinvaluable to the design outcome. It provides feedback on the appearance, scale, material, andconstructability. This process can also be adopted as a teaching strategy in a classroom,especially when considering that a hands-on learning experience increases student engagementand information retention.

AbstractConventional architecture and architectural engineering pedagogy deals with design of buildingsand systems for earth-specific functions, spans and load demands. Architecture curriculum hasrequired educators to constantly transform and innovate their course offerings to meet the changingtrends and rapid technological advancements. The discourse about space exploration andcolonization have placed a creative onus on educators who have traditionally taught design forearth conditions alone. While terrestrial structures are typically designed for service conditionsand region-specific severe conditions, outer space structures in contrast are designed for uniqueextreme conditions such as zero or microgravity, gamma radiation, high temperature fluctuations,and
