These changes caninclude the building of new, inclusive, student-centered spaces to continue to move the workforward.In typical Engineering and Science educational systems, students often are not givenopportunities to build skills outside of narrowly defined, technical domains [1].

Developed in 1972based on the constructivist pedagogy of Ausubel [1], a concept map is a hierarchical diagram thatshows the relationship between different concepts, ideas, or other pieces of informationoriginating from a key concept. Concepts are represented by nodes, and the relationshipsbetween them are represented by lines or arrows that contain a linker word or phrase thatdescribes that relationship [2]. Concepts increase in specificity as they progress further awayfrom the key concept. Arrangement of a series of related concept-links in a hierarchical chainrepresents a domain of knowledge.
