in aggregate, suggeststhat information gathered through classroom observation would contribute substantially to ourunderstanding of space and technology needs.To provide effective feedback for individual instructors, teaching teams, and administrators, weare undertaking a research project that explores the use of technology in active learning inpurpose-designed active learning spaces through classroom observation. To achieve this goal, weare seeking a protocol that effectively captures the nuances of the interactions between thestudents, instructors, space, and technology in active STEM learning settings. An effectiveteaching observation protocol should capture holistically the complex teaching moves that areinherent in active learning

Grand Challenges for Engineering,fourteen challenges facing modern society that reinforce the message that engineers use theircreative problem-solving skills to improve our world and shape the future. [17] [18] See Table 1for a list of the Grand Challenges. Each of these challenges impact people around the world andusing these challenges as framing for engineering projects and lessons can engage students whoare interested in having a career that helps others or solves problems they observe in theireveryday life.Most of the work evaluating the impact of the Grand Challenges has focused on undergraduateengineering majors and their perceptions of lessons based on Grand Challenges.

This indicates that communication, technical, andleadership skills are an essential set of tools embedded within groups to execute and maintain thefocus of innovative ideas. Thus, it is demonstrated that role of the practicing engineer is more thanfinding solutions to technical problems. It may include managing projects, working in teamsettings, communicating, decision-making, preparing technical reports, organizing events,scheduling meetings, or proposing new methods of solving problems.These roles and duties, despite being essential for the success of a practicing engineer, are notcultivated in undergraduate engineering curricula which are focused on strengthening andnurturing areas in

Students earn tokens by answering exam questions, completing labs, and/orcompleting mini-projects. The token progression was built around Webb’s Depth of Knowledge, alearning taxonomy that breaks learning into 4 levels, shown in Figure 1 [12]. To earn a C,students must meet all of the level 2 objectives. Level 3 and 4 objectives could be completed toearn additional tokens.Depth of Knowledge 1 (DK1) is recalland reproduce.
