With all these skillsets on display this is a good place for faculty toidentify the potential needs and/or strengths of a student with an ASD. Most students with anASD solve problems in creative, unconventional ways12. The ambiguous project may be an areafor the ASD student to research and thrive, while some ASD students will appreciate the moredirected project with rules and requirements. However, the scope of the guided project may beoverwhelming if presented all at once. A large project assignment should be broken down intosmaller steps/assignments with varying due dates.

Therefore, a paradigm shift is necessary to educate students torecognize sustainability as a changing constraint in construction.As construction industry demands for graduates with broader understanding of impact ofconstruction projects on environment and overall quality of life, universities have tried to come upwith innovative ways to teach students with knowledge of sustainability concepts. However, dueto already full construction management curriculum it has been a challenge to equip students withvarious sustainable solutions. One of the solutions to this

. Using the model, the rear joint was analyzed to see the effects of joint clearance on the movement of the knee. Since these joints are the only point of wear, this is where the most of the group research went into. Too tight of joint clearances could cause the knee to seize and result in failure. However, too loose of clearances could cause the whole knee assembly to feel sloppy and rattle apart. The group has found that a joint clearance of 0.008 inches gave the knee the best results. This investigation will provide good insight for the design of prosthetic knee that is safe, reliable, and feel natural. Figure 4: Four

His research in- terests include innovative pedagogies in engineering design, exploring student experiences within design settings, school-to-work transitions for new engineers, and efforts for inclusion and diversity within en- gineering. His current work explores how students describe their own learning in engineering design and how that learning supports transfer of learning from school into professional practice as well
