Task 4 status bar in Figure 1. It has been a fulfilling journey for all the instructors and thestudents on both trips. However, there have been multiple instances throughout the journey whenwe would almost have to give up when significant challenges emerged.The strategies that we have used to overcome those challenges to enable this successful initiativeof an engineering faculty-led course will be shared in this paper. Being prepared to be flexibleand responsive to each situation is a must. It should also be pointed out that one can only beresponsible for the things s/he can have an effect on, but s/he cannot and should not feelresponsible for external discouraging factors, such as local political situations, change inleadership support

this paper believe that this is an important aspect in theestablishment of the field and should have been included in Fensham1’s characterizationbecause without adequate funding, high quality, rigorous research is unlikely to happen. Inthe U.S., the National Science Foundation (NSF) began funding STEM education-relatedprojects beginning in the late 1980s-early 1990s. The current budget for the Education andHuman Resources directorate in the NSF is nearly $1B per year (for all of STEM, not justengineering) and there are other funds available for EER within the NSF that are not includedin this overall amount.One could argue, that EER in the U.S. emerged primarily because there was a steady fundingstream available to support people who wanted to

In additions, each student filled out a daily survey and reflected oneach day’s events. The students’ reflections represent “active response(s) to the challenges in(their) environment(s)” 24.

undergraduate colleges in theUS. While faculty at UTG (and smaller colleges in the US) will struggle to compete with theR1's in the scholarship of discovery, the playing field can be leveled or even tipped to theiradvantage in the other areas. Faculty at many smaller US colleges and UTG will likely alwayshave greater teaching responsibilities and less access to costly research laboratories andresources (library, software, database access, support staff, technicians, etc.). This clearly tips thecompetitive balance toward the R1's in the scholarship of discovery. However in the scholarshipof teaching, an increased valuation of teaching should provide opportunity to raise visibility inthis area of scholarship. Evidence of this can be seen every summer at
