This work explores the impact ofthe use of case studies in an environmental engineering laboratory, introductory engineeringcourse, introductory biology seminar course, and upper level biology course. Motivations forimplementing the cases include determining how case studies teaching impacts students’ abilityto carry out a scientific investigation (from hypothesis to data analysis to discussion of results)and if the results correlate to students’ learning style preferences. This work is part of acontinuing funded investigation of the use of case studies with the potential to contribute to thebody of knowledge related to the use of learning styles assessments in educational practiceacross a variety of disciplines.

in a session where an interactive survey was administered to capture feedback on theeducational areas identified for future projects. Participants were asked to provide their input,suggest additional areas of need, and rank the proposed educational initiatives on a scale from 1to 5, with 1 being the highest priority. Study results indicated that the most critical needidentified by CJC participants was higher education and scholarship training, as well as hands-ontraining of laboratory/field equipment. These findings will guide future MOM Belize programefforts, ensuring that the program continues to meet the needs of CJC and its community.Key Wordsneeds assessment; focus group; service-learning project; international partner

In a normal learningenvironment, these courses tend to be difficult due to higher expectations for problem-solving,math, and scientific concepts, and adding external factors such as the pandemic adds morecomplications. The focus of this research work is to study the first- and second-year engineeringcourses and present the challenges associated with the delivery of the course content, teachingengineering concepts and applications and laboratory

Notably, leveraging strategies such as game-centered learning, personalized learning,and virtual prototyping can effectively promote these outcomes. Of particular significance is theobservation that digital twins can diversify the range of laboratory options within engineeringclasses without entailing additional equipment costs. Consequently, this expansion of resourcesmitigates barriers for students, providing them with
