Imagination or belief that the user is in thevirtual environment is impacted by immersion and interactivity of the virtual experience. VR laboratories,testing, and demonstrations can provide students with a better intuitive understanding of the content.

culture of engineering, which has been characterized as masculine,competitive, individualistic, and meritocratic [16],[17]. A number of these attributes areproblematic with regards to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) and could detractfrom the appropriate valuation of research conducted by URMWF. Further, it should not beassumed that white women will be supporters and allies of URMWF [18],[19],[20]; e.g., “thereis a long history of white women not being trustworthy allies” [21]. Thus, change withinengineering broadly, and EnvE more specifically, is critically needed.

However, there are ways (such as those outlined above regarding experiential learning) that allow students to learn job-ready skill sets. As space for laboratories in academic buildings is at a premium, the library is offering access to better fulfil this demand. One additional component of this is in the institutional expansion of student success programs.

The application of the knowledge might also then lead to analysis by exploring connections and organizing information into meaningful domains similar to writing a report. This also might include discussing discrepancies in cases and the student might explore other personal variables through their increased critical thinking [17].The taxonomy introduces a new dimension, highlighting four types of knowledge—factual,conceptual, procedural, and metacognitive—aimed at addressing diverse

Because the ABET accreditation criteria for engineeringprograms 1 requires that every student be able to function on multi-disciplinary teams, a largeenrollment default course was needed. A five unit studio laboratory during a single quarter wasultimately chosen for the new course. The change and approval process was easiest for ARCHbecause it fit within their existing curriculum structure, no curriculum changes or faculty votewere required.

The firstpaper studied policy issues related to retail power beaming, while a second dealt witharchitecture options and costs. The third paper in this series has shown that the optimalarchitecture will probably be one where stratospheric buoyant platforms will serve to capture anddistribute power coming from terrestrial plants either directly or via space satellites. This optionreduces the receiving antenna size needed at the ground to dimensions
