detract from student success and motivation. This information canbe used in practice for enhancing programmatic planning and design as well as potentiallydeveloping novel program components that contribute to students becoming more self-determined,motivated engineers. It is my hope that one day in the near future, engineering education faculty,administrators, and leaders will cultivate and measure success based on a more comprehensiveassessment of lived experiences. Additionally, this research is intended to help leaders betterrecognize how their decisions regarding programmatic structures impact students’ experiences andsuccess.Introduction and Literature OverviewInequalities are deeply rooted in the U.S. education system.

Paper ID #39795Learning Concrete in Construction Management Course through BowlingBallProjectProf. Pranshoo Solanki, Illinois State University Dr. Pranshoo Solanki is a full professor in the Construction Management program of Department of Technology at Illinois State University. He received his doctorate in civil engineering from the University of Oklahoma in 2010. The overall theme of Dr. Solanki’s research is innovative construction materials and methodologies which can be used for building a sustainable civil engineering infrastructure. Dr. Solanki mainly teach courses in the area of construction materials and design

MethodologyTo achieve the objectives of this study, a qualitative research approach was utilized to investigatethe impact of the 2020 pandemic on the students’ learning experiences during the period ofremote teaching . The survey was designed to include five sections: (1) experiences withlectures and laboratory courses, including challenges faced and opportunities that emerged, (2)campus resources utilization, (3) extracurricular activities involvement, (4) students’ professionalexperience, (5) sense of community, and (6

student populated surveyed consisted of 68% male and 32%female, of which 95% are Hispanic/Latino. The authors employed a qualitative research design,and the primary method of data collection was a self-developed survey instrument consisting of atotal five open-ended questions. The process for developing the survey items consisted ofquestions that sought to examine instructional and pedagogical strategies implemented to teachstudents rigorous engineering concepts based on students’ experiences in the course. As such, thequestions provided students the opportunity to delineate, reflect, and share valuable insight andexperiences that can help develop and refine effective and equitable engineering pedagogy.The data analysis consisted of an open

courseBFCIT has their largest attrition rate after the first semester and a first semester project-based course mayhelp to address that. Research [17] has shown that highly impactful educational practices include firstyear experiences that involve teams in research and service learning. Therefore, in their first semester,freshman Scholars, as well as BFCIT EE freshmen, meet for six hours per week in three two-hoursessions, each led by a full-time EE faculty member, to work in teams on projects that teach aboutelectrical engineering; projects include those involving wind and solar energy, electric motors, robotics,and general electrical engineering laboratory tools such as oscilloscopes, signal generators, andmultimeters.

The situation in Donora, coupled with similar events in London, where adeadly fog killed about 12,000 residents, and Engís, Belgium, where 60 died in three days [38],provided the impetus for the 1955 Air Pollution Control Act [37] and the 1963, 1970 Clean AirActs. Indeed, the sign in front of the Donora Smog Museum reads “Clean Air Started Here,”recognizing the impact of that lethal fog. Prior to the Donora event, no one really questionedindustrial pollution [38]. In fact, the common belief was that “smoke in the air was oftenconsidered to be a sign of progress and prosperity
-level study. PUIs may have limitations on faculty expertise to teach acrossthe breadth of EnvE related topics due to the limited research capacity of the institution. Thispaper aims to document the distribution of EnvE programs at PUIs and adjacent programs (i.e.Civil Engineering) that may pose an alternative path into EnvE practice for undergraduates.Further, preliminary curricular comparison among EnvE PUI programs is presented to provide arecord of current potential gaps in EnvE as taught at PUIs which lack graduate programs tosupplement specialization and provide additional technical research opportunities on campus forstudents and faculty.2.
