research on the performance of students in courses using OER and more specifically inarchitecture and engineering education. The objective of this research is to assess the impact of anOER platform for teaching building information modeling (BIM) course, taught to architecture,engineering and construction (AEC) students at the University of Texas at Arlington. This studyexamined the performance of AEC students in a BIM course before and after adopting the OERplatform developed and also a combined OER and flipped classroom strategy. Hypothesis testswere performed to compare the averages of students’ project and overall grades in three semestersthat the BIM course was offered without the OER, with the OER, and with combined OER withflipped classroom

The key features of theprogram are (1) a single point of entry, (2) long-term and authentic research experiences, (3)participation in a broader impact project, and (4) personal mentoring between students andfaculty. Since its inception in 2003, the program has had 251 total student participants that havepublished 225 peer reviewed publications and 75% have continued on to graduate school.1. IntroductionA recent report analyzed what made students view their undergraduate education as being worththe cost [1]. The three largest factors were the following: • “My professor cared about me as a person.” • “I had a mentor who encouraged me to pursue my goals and dreams.” • “I had at least one professor who made me excited about learning.”All

The interviews called on youth to give a guided, narrative description oftheir work on a design project accomplished in their engineering-focused, girls-only afterschoolprogram. Interviews were augmented with programmatic observations, so the analysts couldtriangulate evidence from interviews with observations of girls engaged in the projects. Incollaboration with the curriculum development team, a rubric was developed to measure theextent to which girls communicated effective engineering design, specifically: a) understandingof the design challenge, b) evaluation of design strengths and weaknesses, and c) evidence

As a result, homeowners are left to rely on their own consumer informationwith regard to maintaining an energy efficient lighting system and over time can become lesssatisfied with the aesthetic and functional results.This paper reviews and examines an educational experience across interior design andarchitectural technology disciplines to learn about energy efficient lighting and apply it in aconsumer education effort.
