TheIGERT MNM itself represents a community of practice that facilitates situated learning throughcontextual participation. More specifically, learning the pedagogical frameworks was expressedthrough the design of lesson plans that are grounded on these frameworks. Because this is aunique model for interdisciplinary graduate level education, and because many graduate studentsdo not have the opportunity to learn theoretically-sound activity or curriculum design, we areinterested in studying professional skills that occur as a result of participation in the pedagogy

In 2010 the group convened a National Dialogue on Energy, expanding its membership to include other community groups, and professional organizations. During 2011 the group spearheaded a public education effort regarding a new way to elect the two consumer representatives for the Governing Board of the electric utility. PREPA is a state-owned public power company, and although the Governor selected 7 of the 9-member Governing Board, PREPA operated autonomously from the state government. The remaining two members of the Board were representatives elected by the consumers. The Roundtable got two of its members included in the final ballot for the elections

May 2012, has been developed from the ground up to not be anengineering discipline-specific program, but to provide students training with an emphasis onengineering design, systems thinking, and sustainability. Our vision is to produce cross-disciplinary engineer versatilists. One important place in the curriculum where this is achieved isthe six course (10-credit) design sequence which is the spine of the curriculum. Starting withthe sophomore design courses (Engineering Design I and II), the focus is on teaching studentsthe process of design including the phases of planning, concept development, system-leveldesign, detail design, as well as testing and refinement.

How do engineering students use their academiclibrary and what do they envision as an ideal space? The library teamed with the Department ofInterior Design in the UF College of Design, Construction and Planning to collaborate on a studyof the top two floors of the library that were slated for renovation.

economy. However, this industryfaces a significant challenge due to the high cost of building, workers' low productivity, and lackof innovations [1]. One of the main strategies to enhance the performance of the construction isthe use of digital technologies, such as Building Information Modeling. This technology enablessimultaneous site planning and building element production, which can reduce project deliverytime by 30% to 50% [2]. Nonetheless, many AEC firms have found it difficult to use this tooldue to cultural resistance and implementation costs [3]. Therefore, given the advantages ofdigitalization, there is a need to uncover solutions to break the boundaries of employing BIM inbuilding design projects and construction sites.For educators
