interdisciplinary collaborationduring the design phase of the construction process [23].The processes related to sustainable construction and building efficiency follows the overalldesign process, but in this case collaboration among team members is even more important andnot only during the early stage of the project, but during the whole project lifecycle. Beginningwith an outline, as a holistic system, the building design is then gradually detailed in designiterations with the multiple team members, and sustainability requirements, first defined athighly abstract level, become more specific. A sustainability benchmarking, that is, acomparative assessment of the sustainable definitions adopted, shall be made at the end of eachproject phase to refine the

Many other topics, such asmission planning, path planning, and diagnostics could be integrated into existing courses.Part of the process of recruiting and training undergraduate student team members involved theone-credit course mentioned above

identified the problem of ambiguity in promotion systems—ambiguityin what is valued, what counts, the timeline, how work should be documented, and the standardsby which quality is assessed. From interviews with STEM faculty who had received tenure ortheir first promotion, Banerjee and Pawley [5] found that women do not get enough informationabout policies and application requirements. In this “foggy climate,” they must develop theirown “fog lights” of formal and informal resources. While ambiguity is often cited as a problemwithin the assistant-to-associate promotion system, ambiguity seems especially pronounced forpromotion from associate to full [20]. In interviews with science and engineering academics at aresearch university, Fox and Colatrella

general may be less able to meet relatedness needs of women ascompared to men faculty, and the extreme gender imbalance in engineering departments likelyexacerbates this.Concluding RemarksThis study has added to the existing literature on the importance of developing belonging andmeeting relatedness needs for women at all levels in the engineering academe. The three basicneeds of self-determination theory (autonomy, competence, relatedness) were assessed inengineering, computer science, and physics faculty using a qualitative research design. Theworkplace experiences that have served to meet or frustrate autonomy and competence needs ofmen and women faculty seem comparable, but relatedness needs reveal an important genderdifference.

C-K theory is known for integrating multiple domains of information andfacilitating innovation through connection building. We used this theory to create lectures, in-class activities, assignments, rubrics and templates that scaffold the discovery and knowledgetransfer processes involved in using natural designs to inspire engineering solutions.To assess the learning impact of our C-K theory instructional resources, we conducted astatistical comparison of student

Works of this nature were most often quantitative, but can also be qualitative innature. For example, Evans & Harriott (2004) conducted an ethnographic study to explore howheterosexual students’ perceptions about the LGBTQ+ community changed when they wereexposed to the community. Work that followed this theme could also take the form of askingLGBTQIA+ students about the climate of their university to assess attitudes surrounding theLGBTQIA+ community. The

It is also not a pre- and post-analysis of student performance – the student cohort performance was statistically-equivalent tothe prior year at a 98% pass rate (the course is assessed on a pass/no record basis).In the following section, we briefly describe the classroom intervention and data collection thatinvolved student focus groups.

The project of liberation is the project of daring to imagine.IntroductionTeaching takes place in a physical space with configured interactions of the instructor with thestudents. The traditional mode of education presupposes the instructor as an authority“depositing” knowledge into the “clean-slates” (students’ minds), who in turn regurgitate thatdeposited (memorized) knowledge in assessments. This is described as the banking concept ofeducation by Freire [1]. This model discourages creative engagement of the student with theworld and encourages uncritical acceptance of the oppressive power structures. This process

While Mallette’s proposed theory might indeed result ineffective engineering leaders, he did not test it with a group of engineers, nor did he test hisassumption that the majority of engineers are Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Judgers (INTJMyers Briggs personality type).

All interviews were transcribedand coded by the research team. Youth responses to the engineering design challenge were codedto identify the design moves proposed by the youth, the evaluative criteria or constraints that theyouth used to assess the quality of their proposed solution, and the reasoning youth provided, ifany, to justify their design choices.Our session observation protocol focused on observing the degree to which youth were engagedin different activities, the degree to which youth were enacting various engineering

insights about the culture of engineering degree programs which may be ripe for cultivatingmoments of shame. 10Through the findings, we learn that engineering identity is complex. The study of engineering identity hasbeen an important trend in the literature on engineering marginalization and student experience.12,15Within this work, identity alignment is often discussed as a dimension of students’ experiences, and ameasure in which students can agree or disagree with on a survey. But the assessment of engineeringidentity is typically performed with the underlying assumption that achieving a strong identity will lead topositive outcomes within engineering degree programs (e.g., retention) and

Recentresearch in these disciplines has suggested that these educational norms influence many aspectsof students’ experiences, feelings, and outcomes, including the identities that students form asstudents and as pre-professionals.The influence of Locke and the traditionalist view of education is evident in STEM fields, andengineering departments in particular: STEM subjects are known for support of meritocracy andfor grading practices based primarily on high-stakes assessments [2-4]. Foundational courses --the start of an unforgiving undergraduate workload -- serve to “weed out” students at an earlystage, and typically result in large numbers of D, F and W grades, which often leads students todrop the major [2-3; 5].
