However, few practicing elementary school teachershave the academic backgrounds that allow them to teach coding in a manner that goes beyondallowing students to learn how to code through trial-and-error experimentation and as an additivelearning activity such as an after-school program. Current content and practice standards call forthe use of argumentation in the teaching of mathematics and science [1] [2]. This project isfocused on extending collective argumentation framework developed by Conner [3] for theteaching of mathematics to the teaching of coding.

Vertical IntegrationSustainability has been proven to be a significant need for the civil and construction engineeringand management (CCEM) industries. The concept of sustainability, however, is not commonlytaught in the undergraduate curriculum; it is generally covered and taught in graduate-levelcourses. Though undergraduate students may have an interest in sustainability, their exposure toit comes later in their educational curriculum. In this Transforming Undergraduate Education inSTEM (TUES) project, the researchers develop a problem-based learning framework that (1)introduces sustainability earlier in the undergraduate curriculum, and (2) provides an opportunityfor vertical integration across courses within CCEM curriculum.
