. 2. Create generalized lesson plans for methods in recovery, separation, and purification of bioproducts, and a certificate in industrial cleaning, sanitization, and sterilization. 3. Develop a series of soft-skills and career readiness modules in conjunction with the Niswonger Foundation and BioBuilder. 4. Implement lessons and develop modules suited to non-traditional and non-matriculating students. 5. Prototype modules suitable for integration into a four-year degree in bioengineering or biomanufacturing. 6. Implement a nexus between our educational programs, the ETSU Research Corporation, and local and prospective industry. 7. Identify the effectiveness of the proposed scope of work on student learning

building climate resiliency during agricultural production. Mar´ıa Jos´e brings expertise in environmentaleducation and soil and water conservation agricultural practices. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in EnvironmentalScience and Development from Zamorano University and a Master’s degree (MSc) in Mechanized SystemsManagement with a specialization in Water Resources Planning and Management from the Universityof Nebraska-Lincoln. During my graduate studies, my research focused on nutrient management andshort-term indicators of soil health improvements driven by applying organic amendments. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024 Empowering Youth to Create a Healthier Future Through STEM

. Thestudents are first required to contact the faculty coordinator at their respective institutions, whoplay pivotal roles in identifying suitable projects for the students interested in the internshipprogram. The mentors, who are typically faculty, from participating member institutions have tosubmit project proposals in the STEM areas that are relevant to the National Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration’s (NASA’s) mission and are aligned with the needs of the future workforce. Thestudent recruitment plan targeting women and members of underrepresented minorities wasincluded. Each project included the learning outcomes, timeline, mentoring plan, and expecteddeliverables. For each project, financial support for one to two students was requested

(EcoE) program. To establish this knowledge base,the committee first identified 13 example design projects (applications) on which a recent EcoEgraduate could be expected to work. Example applications included the design of a streamrestoration system and the development of a prairie restoration plan. Next, the specific tasks thatthe graduate would need to carry out to complete each design application, along with theunderlying knowledge or skills needed for each task were outlined. Additionally, the necessarylevel of learning for each knowledge area was qualified, ranging from simple recollection of factsto integration of knowledge across engineering and ecology to develop designs. Each applicationarea was reviewed by the committee and up to two

future, the project team plans to conductexperiments with other variations of photoperiod. General observation of the trial indicated thatthe longer photoperiod helped the peanut plants to grow more vigorously with the increasedphotoperiod. The seed inoculation was randomized for each zone in Figures 3a and 3b, locationsdesignated as A indicates inoculated seeds, and B indicate non-inoculated seeds. For both trials,gypsum was added to the soil after the flowering of the plants. The peanuts were hand harvestedroughly five and a half months after planting for both FarmBot beds (April/May –September/October timeframe). The harvest from each plant was counted and weighed.4.0 Harvest Data AnalysisIrrigation was discontinued two weeks before the

-basedinteractions. However, digital tools have been a good ally for community building andteamwork activities. Students were engaged with the activities in the classroom that includedguest lecture speakers, group discussions, and active participation toward a specific topic duringthe semester. However, data on Canvas shows that all students actively took part in creatingvideos, forum discussions, surveys online, and online group projects when they were asked touse digital tools. As their instructors, we could see their positive participation in digital and in-person modalities planned to increase classroom community and teamwork.We learned that while technology often gets blamed for reducing in person interactions, it canalso be used to facilitate them

Spanish forcollaborative planning and problem-solving with her Spanish-speaking assistants, while Englishis reserved for more formal teaching moments. Juan Carlos shows similar versatility, usingSpanish for in-depth discussions and English when addressing a wider audience.We add another dimension, describing how casual conversations with peers from similarbackgrounds often involve a mix of English and Spanish. This linguistic blend extends beyondthe classroom, strengthening friendships, alleviating stress, and enhancing empathy among peersduring graduate school. It is a practice that enriches their shared cultural experiences, from foodto customs, and bolsters their individual identities.Another common theme was that in formal academic settings
