connected inmy classroom was a big takeaway. Fostering connections for students- among each other, withfaculty, and with professionals in the field should be designed into our courses. The good news isthat this doesn’t demand a course re-design or any intense transformation- we can do it withminimal time but with intention and purpose- and it can make a big impact on our student’ssuccess.AcknowledgementsI would like to thank the TLDG (Teaching and Learning Development Grant) Program at SimonFraser University for providing funding for this work.References[1] S.

By coordinating agrivoltaicsprojects across two university campuses, SPV Lab involves ten STEM teachers in a six-week summer research experience for three consecutive summers (total of 30teachers). Participants across sites and across years generate and share insights intohow the collection of regional projects contribute to PV performance improvement anduse-inspired engineering.

Forexample, quantification of environmental impacts (e.g. using life cycle assessment) andpositive social impacts is now required, but it is late in the curriculum to introduce theseconcepts, which would be better shifted to the first year. The requirement for faculty todevelop appropriate material for each course is a significant barrier, which we hope thatSCOP can help overcome.In general, a community of practice is needed in order to keep the conversation movingforward, to normalize and support the thinking about how to teach these topics, and toprovide a forum for exchanging ideas and information.
