project is open-ended and requires the students to make a series ofassumptions, depending on the data available, to complete their technical analyses. Further, thestudents must deliver their analyses through technical memoranda, reports, and presentations.This course structure follows Wiggins’ framework for authentic assessments [1, 2].The objectives of the present work-in-progress study are to assess the impact that interacting withmuseums has on the technical and professional development of the students. Two cohorts ofstudents are studied, the first cohort is currently (2022-2023 academic year) taking the aerospacestructures courses at Clarkson University, while the second cohort took the courses during the2021-2022 academic year.

The impact of these practices is evaluated through an analysis of students’project reports, feedback, and survey results.IntroductionOne Airport Administration course is provided in the aviation administration program in aMinority Serving Institution (MSI). The majority of the students enrolled in the AirportAdministration course come from underserved community who face numerous barriers thatimpede their academic success. As one part of the course redesign in 2022, the AirportCooperative Research Program (ACRP) University Airport Design Competition was added intothe

approachable without dominating the coursefootprint. This model for the project could easily be implemented into similar existing courses orused as inspiration that a lecture-based course can implement research.ImplementationThis project was first implemented in the spring 2022 semester and repeated in the spring 2023semester at US Coast Guard Academy. The first offering had 9 students, who did the projectindependently. In 2023, there were 22 students, and based on the constraints of the experimentalcomponent of the project, namely the 3D printing and use of the wind tunnel, students weregrouped into eleven groups of two students each. The students chose their own partners. Thework was done individually, but collaboratively, so that the students could

This research aims to find whether taxi time at airports differ by airport hubclassifications and by the number of hot spots on airports.For this study, a sample of 33 airports was selected from the 77 airports listed in the AviationSystem Performance Metrics (ASPM) [5] data published by the FAA. The researchers sampledthe 11 busiest airports (by number of operations conducted) from each of the three hubcategories – Large (L), Medium (M), and Small (S) – as identified by the National Plan ofIntegrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) [6]. The 20 busiest days (by number of operationsconducted) from May 01, 2022, to September 30, 2022 were selected for each airport.

During the class, students consistently maintained eyecontact with the instructor because they were engaged in the presentation of the material.Students very much liked the course content and the way in which it was presented, but probablyvery few students could put into words why they liked the pedagogy used in Aero TWC. Theanswer as to why the course content was well received is that the teaching of the course wasdone in such a manner that every class had features of the presentation style that appealed totheir various learning styles.Also, during the academic year 2022-2023, the Aero TWC instructor was a Teaching Assistant(TA) for an Aerospace laboratory course (which

The initial coursewhich was offered in Fall 2014 had 8 students and peaked at 42 students in Winter 2020. It wasjust recently offered again in Winter 2022, and 26 students took the course. Our typicalgraduating classes are on the order of 30 to 40 students and only Juniors and Senior students areeligible to take the course. In a typical quarter, they have five other offerings other than thiscourse, so around 50% or more choose to take this course before graduation.conclusionsThrough incorporating PBL, EL, and EM methods in projects using free software such asJavaFoil and Ansys Fluent as computational wind tunnels
