In this paper, a project has been developedand is aimed at developing two pedagogical models within the curriculum; one is to coverthe theoretical and practice-oriented sustainability components, and the other is forimplementing applied research in the area of sustainability. Many students undertookboth models during their program of study and as a result reaped the benefits of theirdeveloped skills in a fairly new realm of engineering, i.e. sustainable engineering andgreen construction.

Engineering Education is inviting more student involvement. One goal ofthe Student Constituent Committee will be to promote the development of ASEE studentchapters on college campuses. These ASEE student chapters have the opportunity tosignificantly influence the future of engineering education through current engineering students.Current graduate students are understood to be the future educators, so many campuses alreadyprovide at least some resources for students interested in academic careers. In light of thoseexisting resources, how can a new ASEE student chapter maximize its impact on campus?Using a strategic planning process, an ASEE student chapter can maximize its impact onengineering education and bring additional value to ASEE student

That’s the good news. Unfortunately, few engineering collegesare prepared to deal with the challenge of providing evidence in a systematic way which validates studentachievement in the areas defined by “Criterion 3.

Based on personal observationsfrom accreditation visits, the author shares this opinion. While this is likely the most difficultelement in creating an effective assessment plan it is also the most important because it requiresfaculty to collectively decide what are appropriate measures of student learning.Like most new undertakings, much can be learned from studying the success and failure ofothers -which approaches constitute best practices, and which assessment methods should beavoided.

With these ideas in mind it is a relatively easy step to begin formulatingone’s own plans to involve students in the world of design, a world where the participantsunderstand that design is the heart of engineering. It is also relatively easy to direct the students’attention to the importance of working together to form the best ideas for a design, to use all theirindividual skills to perfect the best choice, and finally to build the unit and test its performance.With time a premium, the students can experience the
