strengths may helpmitigate the sense of isolation that some CSt report.Adopt Supportive Policies and Programs Time constraints, one of the main challenges of CSt, canbe eased by a variety of policies. For example, providing CSt with priority course registration,[21] an option sometimes offered to student athletes, would likely make it easier for CSt to plan acourse schedule that meshes well with their childcare arrangements. Policies that allow CSt aleave of absence could be helpful.[43] Support for CSt is often ad hoc,[24] although formalpolicies (e.g., for lactation time and space) may benefit students. [44]Other resources for CSt might include a parent resource center, playgroups, and clothingexchanges. [9] A CSt support network, which CSt

However, such collaborations present challenges, including disparate outcomeexpectations, limited support, and a common deficiency in contemporary technicalknowledge and hands-on competency among students. In response to these challenges, theengineering faculty at the University of Hong Kong established the Tam Wing FanInnovation Wing (also known as the HKU Inno Wing) [1].

However, this initial enthusiasm requires careful moderation to prevent it fromeclipsing the core content goals and to mitigate the risk of activity fatigue, which can emerge fromrepetitive LbE use. A critical issue noted was the difficulty in connecting these engaging activities withthe design thinking framework comprehensively. During the Explore phase, LbE effectively facilitateddesign ideation, promoting hands-on exploration. Yet, the efficacy of this phase hinged on the structureddelivery of LbE sessions.

In NewMexico, there are 15,000 abandoned mines, many of which are co-located with vulnerablecommunities, and there is risk of current and future environmental contamination [11].
