technology, may not have the training orexperience necessary to think about the social, political, and ethical implications of their workand so may not be technologically literate.”2 As any engineering educator can attest, many of ourstudents express that one of the reasons they gravitate to a technical field is that they are moreinterested in what they perceive to be the “concrete and objective” world of technoscience, andwould like to minimize their contact with the fuzzier world of social, political, and economicconcerns. Heretofore, engineering education has largely obliged these students by concentratingthe curriculum on technical analysis. I have hope, though, that the winds have changed.

Theeducator’s challenge is to translate the above guidance into practical steps in the curriculum.There is debate among NAE experts on the need to push the first engineering degree out to a fifthyear; however, barring this development, one must assume that the time available to impart thenew, broader, deeper education to the 18-year-olds of 2016 will be the same as that available toeducate 18-year-olds now.Clearly, all of the above cannot be “taught” in courses within any reasonable time.

Lab modules with open-ended design learning experience through using a lab-in-a-boxapproach were developed to allow students to solve lab problems with multiple approaches thatallow problem solving independently and collaboratively. Because this innovative lab designallows problem solving at various cognitive levels, it is better suited for concept exploration andcollaborative lab learning environments as opposed to the traditional lab works with a“cookbook” approach that tend to lead students to follow certain procedures for expectedsolutions with the absence of problem exploration stage.

This paper expands on related work inSTEM education [9, 11] that explored the use and/or implementation of singular UCD tools (i.e.,personas) for curricular design and student-focused communication among curricularstakeholders.

The theory of socialinterdependence [2], [3] elaborates that inclusive, cooperative work is characterized by studentsbeing highly committed. During the Fall 2017 semester of Purdue Polytechnic Institute’sintroductory video game development course (CGT Game Dev I), a course design emphasizingcollaboration among students was employed; an extremely collaborative atmosphere and anunusually high lab attendance rate was then observed. The following year (Fall 2018), the designof CGT Game Dev I was altered to emphasize a more individualized curriculum; decreasedattendance was then observed until end-of-semester groupwork began [4].The problem addressed by this project is that

Many AE graduates areconfronted with these fragmentation problems in real-world construction projects, such as poorcommunication and lack of cooperative consciousness or experience [2]. Compounding this, the problemof fragmentation also exists in the education field that leads to certain consequences and a cyclic educationdeficit problem. Studies from researchers illustrate that most engineering students were taught technicalknowledge via isolated and, thus domain-specific courses with limited to no teaching of integratedapproaches. This limited educational focus causes a lack of knowledge and experience in collaboration forstudents entering the workforce [3]. Moreover, the education model of the AEC
