regarding active experimentation[7]. Open-ended laboratory courses or even traditional classes with experimentation exposure have shownto provide greater learning value as compared to the traditional lecture only focus [2,8]. Such coursesemploy an approach to learning science that are backed by a significant body of work on research-basedand active pedagogies in various engineering disciplines as well as have demonstrated superior levels ofstudent engagement and learning. Introduction of real-world problems not only allows students to masterappropriate techniques and technologies, but also allows the students to design strategies for solvingproblems and practice an overall process of inquiry [9-10]. Since experimentation is so critical to
creativity and critical thinking [27]. Interdisciplinary learning is an effective way to overcome barriers among different disciplines,improve communication and collaboration skills, and promote the understanding and mastery ofprofessional skills in future employment for future professionals and emphasized that interdisciplinarylearning in the context of technology can add value to higher education students and benefit their skillsdevelopment, thereby increasing student success [4]. Interdisciplinary learning has been shown to improveacademic progress and general skill, and increase student engagement [28]. In addition, interdisciplinarylearning is used in engineering to emphasize the importance of interpersonal skills and to enhance

ABET accredited programs are reviewed by a variety of commissions, such as theEngineering Accreditation Commission, the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission,and the Applied and Natural Science Accreditation Commission, and have descriptions such as“Construction Management”, “Construction Engineering”, “Construction EngineeringTechnology”, etc. ACCE accredited programs are more streamlined, and their descriptions arein general “Construction Management”.In any case, these programs have curricula that are similar in various ways, and this researchaims to identify these similarities.

It isimportant to integrate such competencies in architectural engineering to prepare students for theirfuture careers and make them lifelong learners. Although national policy documents,Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) Criteria, and 21st-century grandchallenges highlight the importance of developing competencies in students, the current coursesmay not necessarily adhere to such necessities. Considering the importance of the competencies,this work-in-progress study considers the architectural engineering program at Texas A&MUniversity. It focuses

. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024 Using AI Chatbots to Produce Engineering Spreadsheets in an Advanced Structural Steel Design CourseAbstractEngineers have historically embraced the use of technology to increase efficiency, reduce errors incalculations, and produce high quality projects on a shorter timeline. The Excel spreadsheet is aprime example of how engineers embraced technology for those reasons. Excel has been a staple inproducing an immeasurable number of engineering calculations. However, humans have alwaysbeen responsible for spreadsheet development and, unfortunately, humans will inherently produceerrors within spreadsheets. But what if an engineer can reduce the number of errors and produce

the role of both civil engineer and architect. In 1818 the Institute of CivilEngineers appeared in Great Britain, and it was not until 1834 that the Royal Institute ofBritish Architects was formed in the same country. The creation of these twoinstitutions gave rise to different specializations in each profession. On the one hand,engineering and structural problems and, on the other hand, design and functionalspecifications [1]. This event initiated the creation of a gap between both constructionbranches that has been growing until today so that even though both professions sharesimilar design objectives the standards experienced are different [2], [3]. Nowadays, dueto technological advances and the growth of the demand for infrastructure
