Learned” paper is to investigate how former graduate studentleaders can employ their experiences to achieve and excel in service requirements as juniortenure-track faculty members. Research skills, and increasingly teaching ability, have been coreto the graduate student curriculum, and match the majority of faculty tenure requirements.However, preparation for the service requirement is often overlooked at both the graduatestudent and faculty level. While a small part of the overall tenure package, there is an unspokenpresumption that faculty members will be able to serve effectively and efficiently. In STEMcurricula, the development of interpersonal skills is often overlooked. While this may not be animpediment in research communications, faculty

In construction engineering education, the curriculum ranges from the means andmethods for a construction process, to line items required for estimating a task, the time it takesto schedule an activity, to the required temporary structures for the completion of a constructionproject. As such, faculty should be engaging with a variety of learning styles in developing theirclass activities. Students in Construction Management/Engineering, and Architecture programsgenerally prefer two learning styles; visual and kinesthetic [1]. For this reason, the researchersdecided to develop an educational prop to instruct the means and methods required to construct aone-story concrete building, focusing on formwork, and placement of reinforcement
