constructivist role of the teacher has increased in prevalence in teacher trainingprograms, improvements in student engagement and learning have been observed[9].Researchers have explored the integration of technology to create constructivistlearning environments. Students' comprehension and involvement are improved byinteractive multimedia courses, demonstrating how constructivist ideas can bemodified for use in contemporary educational settings [10].According to published research, individual problem sets help students develop andengage with the course material in a way that is consistent with their past experiencesand knowledge [11]. In another paper which seeks to explain this, constructivistlearning is supported when problem sets reflect realistic

If the Ideator is not contributing anyfurther effort, and the entire commercialization process is going to be managed by the other twopartners, then the allocation of ownership should reflect that ongoing contribution. In this scenarioownership of the company may then shift to 10% to the Ideator and 45% to the other two originalmembers of the group.Second, even if all partners are proceeding equally with continued effort toward commercialization, byallocating 100% of ownership they do not create any reserve of interest to allow for onboarding of futureinvestors or other needed skillsets not present in the current partnership.Another variation of not planning for expansion occurred in

jumping into complex application problems without reviewing a simpler problemfirst.This study had several limitations. First, lectures were not included in the course content data. Forthese courses, the core lecture slides are the same between professors, but how a professorintroduces them and incorporates real-world applications is not standardized. Different sectionsof a course within a semester are not exactly the same. Future research could include the lecturecontent. Another limitation is that only one semester was included. Future studies should includemore semesters. Only about a third of the statics students take the whole course, so the end of thestatics course only reflects these students.

crucial role in the sustainability of UIC. If either party is dissatisfiedwith the results of the collaboration, it can diminish their enthusiasm and potentially lead tothe termination of the partnership. In teaching-focused UIC, a key output is whethergraduates meet the needs of enterprises. This importance was highlighted in one of the interviews: “The lack of motivation among enterprises stems from the fact that the talent trained by universities or their research outcomes often fail to meet industry needs. To address this issue at its root,we need to reflect on whether there is any misalignment in the objectives of talent training in universities, especially for engineering degrees. If we train students well and ensure

actively affirm the many unique identities andbackgrounds present. This includes acknowledging their own positionality, both in relation to theacademy and the profession. Affirming students’ identities and the associated subjectiveexperiences can be as simple as allowing students to share something about their backgrounds,and having the class collectively reflect upon it. Another idea is for faculty to reimagine theirrole in providing feedback. Design pedagogy often positions the professor as the all-knowingexpert, but the faculty member can also create classroom scenarios to facilitate peer feedback oruse other creative approaches to break down hierarchies.A recent study found that design instructors use juries and critique to uphold what they

Early disposal methods consisted of burying trash in the snow or shallow crevasses andsimply dropping empty oxygen canisters, reflecting an “out of sight, out of mind” mindset [62].These methods persisted for more than 60 years.Early expeditions were extravagant in both size and consumption. The British, who conducted allexpeditions in the 1920s because they claimed Everest as their own under the Raj, viewed theseas “a prodigious gentlemen’s journey” [63, p. 7] and gorged on a gourmet diet, including suchitems as quail with truffles, fine cheeses, bacon, herring, chocolates.

Classes that help participants develop ascientific identity, for example, could encourage interest in STEM career paths (Maton et al.,2016). Similarly, educational programs could improve the level of social support available toSTEM academics from minoritized racial/ethnic groups.

Reflective of this debate arechanges in ASCE’s Policy Statement 465 and the Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge(CEBOK) over time [4,5,6], as well as changes in the National Council of Examiners forEngineering and Surveying (NCEES) model law.
