given loadings. Beyond the obligation to teachcode, architectural engineering programs should help students develop the skills to understandstructural systems, behaviors, and load paths.This paper describes the development of a required Structural Loadings class for undergraduatearchitectural engineering students. The class described aims to not only teach how to determinestructural loading, but also to give an understanding of load application and load behaviorwithin structural systems. Within the course, which is designed to be taken in the third year of afour-and-a-half-year bachelor’s degree program, students cover loading topics such as tributaryarea, framing layout, load distribution, structural diaphragms, and lateral systems.

due to active learning games. One example included students earningpoints through accomplishing tasks that required the students to learn specific course objectives.The more points earned, the higher the student’s rank in the class. Students were observedattempting to discover and create additional ways to earn points, beyond the course objectives, towin the game inside and outside of class. These were actions that never had an opportunity tomaterialize in previous years. Although qualitative in nature, the study also showed that the useof games yielded higher scores on the final exams and assignments.Herrmann, Gregory, Miller, and Powney at Mississippi State University performed a qualitativestudy on IPD collaboration between mixed

The use oftechnology in this module, supports analyzing the sound data logger to test urban noise, then usean Oculus Go Device to help learners experience changes in various sound levels in real-time. Tocreate a dynamic learning environment, students were encouraged to develop architectureacoustic barriers to block noise or reflect sound that would advance sound levels beyond thetypical urban setting (Figure 3). The introduction of different level of sounds at differentreverberation times took a new dimension through using 3D audio to immerse learners intovirtual environments. This module is not as

(CM) graduate spends approximately four years building her/histechnical expertise, with little to no time devoted to communication training. For this reason,this research seeks to integrate an objective communication activity in CM curricula thatmake up for this gap. This research has proven to advance CM students’ formalcommunication skills by creating an engaging educational environment through VirtualReality (VR) presentation simulations. An initial benchmark survey was administered to 327STEM students at a minority serving institution, to understand the impact of students’ socio-demographics on their presentation skills. Then, a pilot study was offered to 60 CM students,in which they were required to participate in VR Presentation

date, STEM students in general are offered conventional engineeringeducation that depend on ineffective techniques, tiring introductory courses, and timewornpedagogies. Research studies indicate that a shift to innovative pedagogical techniques such asproblem-based learning (PBL), flipped classrooms and vertical integration are recommended toengage learners as well as actively develop their professional skills. This research implemented apilot integrative learning approach, which couples PBL and vertical integration to successfullyprepare minority CM students to thrive in their careers. Through this approach, three courseswith different educational levels and instructional forms were connected by developing a sharedproject that addressed

The rationaleis that a narrative study affords an opportunity to tell the story through teacher reflection [24].The story is a first-person, autobiographical account [25] with prompting from archived coursedocuments.

positive result of industrypressure and ABET requirements [10]. Capstones allow upper-division students to showcase theirknowledge in a practical way, often through developing design and/or construction projects similarto those experienced in an AEC firm.Presently, there are 22 ABET accredited Architectural Engineering programs in the United States.These programs can be very different in their course structure and focus, but they all share the goalof providing excellent undergraduate education for their students [25, 30]. Besides programdifferences, studies of engineering capstones have revealed much variation in terms of courseduration, project sources, project funding, faculty involvement, and team assignments [31].

design stage to completion. Throughout my profession, I have become increasingly involved in project management roles. In addition to my hands-on experience, other areas that interest me in my future research are improved techniques and sustainable construction methods. These are a couple of projects I plan to continue and grow with the Kennesaw State University’s support. One of the studies that I have started is the development of performance certification techniques for sustainable sites, water efficiency, energy & atmosphere, materials & resources, indoor environmental quality, innovation, and design. I have also analyzed the cost and schedule for a specific sustainable construction project. Through my

copingwith problems frequently encountered in the intrinsically chaotic disaster-relief operations. A life-support system is the real need, not just an emergency shelter to be deployed rapidly after naturaldisasters strike.Disaster education, as such, becomes crucial to propel the creation of resilient communities.It is offered in various countries based on local socio-economic and cultural contexts. Shawet al. [10] provided a comprehensive and easy-to-understand overview of disaster educationbased on field experiences. Through a series of case-studies including those from Japan andNepal, they discussed the ongoing efforts in promoting disaster education. 1This paper examines the influence of different

classmates for the first time through a computer screen. Inaddition to this element of stress for students, they were expected to learn numerous newsoftware for their courses that semester. Most students also had never experienced auniversity level in-person studio design course, and they were expected to engage in anonline version of this course. Additionally, the remote nature of the event meant that manystudents were living in various time zones. Due to these concerns, Design Days wasrequired to: ● Introduce the students to remote learning and the online tools to be used for the upcoming semester; ● Connect students with their cohort, faculty, graduate students, and second-year architectural engineering students to encourage
