The survey provided data that defined the nature of observed flooding in rural areasand needed mitigation efforts for future flooding risks. The students who conducted the publicoutreach study were from several different majors (Geoscience, Environmental Science, andEngineering) and cultural backgrounds.The students who conducted the flood research interview were surveyed for a post-studyassessment using two research instruments – a Qualtrics survey and personal interviews.

To further align the SAFE mission with the degree plans, we decided to integrateour project-based learning with service and community-engaged learning. The goal is thatstudents would find true value in their technical and academic studies by putting them intopractice through community service.We started by approaching nonprofit organizations from within our community. The lack offinancial support for many nonprofit organizations induced several technologies and performancegaps which in turn can result in ineffective management and communication, an uninspired donorbase, and a lack of data-driven decision-making [9, 10]. For these

City of Omaha proposed a $2. 5-million north-south expressway through the oldest parts of Omaha,including all North Omaha (Fletcher, 2020). Proposed as an economic development project, the NorthFreeway was intended to speed cattle to the Omaha Stockyard. Targeting the Near North Sideneighborhood, the new freeway was planned to cut through historic black and poor neighborhoods.Construction was nearly completed by 1963. In 1977 the City of Omaha announced plans to extend thehighway and as late as 1981 an additional 57 housing units were demolished to make way for anextension to the highway. In total, more than 2,000 homes, churches, businesses, and other buildingswere demolished over 34 years of construction.As a final course activity to prepare

As a team we planned a three day game design workshop for middle school students that: ● fosters interest in computer science careers by exposing students to basic programming concepts; ● encourages the development of ethical decision-making capacities by designing games that address contemporary challenges in adolescents’ lives; and ● harnesses the motivational affordances of games to encourage students to engage in interest driven learning.Game Jam workshops are potentially well suited to achieving the goals we note above because of their open-ended nature [3].
