in Oklahoma has provided valuable insights into public perception and highlightedthe importance of these strategies. By fostering a well-informed and supportive public, we canpave the way for successful decarbonization efforts and a more sustainable future for the cementindustry. Engaging and educating the community, alongside political support, is essential tomaking meaningful progress in reducing carbon emissions from cement production.References[1] S. Siddiqua, S.

This sample shows that the majority of the students who are takingengineering design graphics courses have already spent at least two semesters at theinstitution, as the majority of enrolled students in this study are sophomores or higher. InSTEM fields, where communication via graphics is heavily dependent, students need asearly experiences as possible to develop spatial visualization skills that contribute toacademic success [29]. Such a program setup supports an institutional commitment tostudent success. Spatial visualization skill development through engineering design graphicsapplies to fields outside of engineering and other STEM disciplines [29
