By shifting the focus of learning from concreteskills and cognitive understanding to participation and thinking strategies we are able toobserve the effects of social aspects of learning on students’ participation and expressionof identity development as members of a profession. Within the A/E/C industry, being an"A" "E" or "C’ requires knowing not only one’s discipline, but knowing how tocommunicate, collaborate and negotiate with people of related professions, recognizingtheir goals and constraints in the realization of the design task. For instance, from thesituative perspective, being an architect, structural engineer, or construction managerinvolves much more than knowing the

Afterindependence, the need for industrial and infrastructural developments in India laid thefoundation stone for construction.In the late 1960s the government started encouraging foreign collaboration in construction.The Guidelines for Foreign Collaboration, first issued in 1968, stated that local consultantswould be the prime contractor in such collaboration.The objective of this imposition was to develop local design capabilities parallel with theinflow of imported technology and skills. This measure encouraged international constructionand consultancy organizations to set up joint ventures and register their presence in India. Page 22.378.2In India

The nature of these interactions, the representation strategies incorporated in designcommunication, and some observations on their strengths, pitfalls, and effects onstudent learning will be discussed.IntroductionOne of the significant changes that the higher education has undergone over the pastdecade is the increased use of technology for instruction and related educationalactivities. Architecture is no exception. Due to the developments in digital technologiespowerful visualization and collaboration tools have now become available at anaffordable cost and are rapidly gaining in popularity among architects in academia aswell as the industry. This has resulted in a trend where computers increasingly dominatethe design communication

Paired t-tests revealed statistically significant gaps (p <0.05) between potential sustainability points (Mpot) and earned points (Mearn), indicating challengesin applying sustainability assessment tools, renewable energy solutions, and economic evaluations.These gaps were attributed to limited resources, insufficient practical exposure, and a lack ofstructured training on sustainability frameworks.To address these challenges, the study recommends a multifaceted intervention includingcurricular enhancements, faculty training, practical exposure through real-world case studies,industry collaborations, and service-learning projects, and access to advanced sustainability toolsand databases.

The project intends to establish an educationalconsortium through collaboration between high schools and community colleges inArizona and Texas along with Arizona State University at the Polytechnic campus. Thiswill be accomplished by leveraging existing teaching and research expertise and facilitiesin the field of alternative and renewable energy. The strategy of the project is to meet the workforce needs by increasing thenumber of graduates, including underprivileged groups, with Associate of AppliedScience degrees (AAS), certificate programs, and Bachelor of Science (BS) degrees bypreparing them using world-class facilities.

Industry has migrated from a parochial view of disciplines to a broader view ofteamwork as an effective means of increasing the creative capacity of the organization.

interact withother professionals, etc. By shifting the occurrence of these problems into their academic years,the students feel less pressure. Also, they are exposed to industry experience as part of theirintegral formation, making them become more competitive at the time that they apply for aposition.CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION Page 3.368.3The students involved in a Clinical Internship in the BET program at PSU-WB, and their clinicalengineering supervisors recognized the important benefits of this kind of cooperative experience.Also, the students that collaborate with industry while in college have generally more job offersafter graduation than
thinking andteamwork skills. However, Terenzini, Cabrera [1] assert that collaborative learning can beconsidered an instructional strategy that can promote those skills. In addition, Seely [2]argues that in the need for change the engineering education field has evolved over time,moving from being focused on STEM and engineering science to add emphasis in howengineers should learn and acquire the skills desired by industry. This evolution, accordingto the author, requires that we implement research-based teaching strategies like activelearning.Active learning has been studied by several authors with demonstrated benefits in students,especially in engineering education. Several types of active learning strategies have beendeveloped over time. Team
designed to accommodate different levels oftraining, they foster a sustainable model where students proficient in the content can transition into researchassistants, contributing to ongoing projects. This approach not only promotes sustainability in workshop designand personnel training but also engages students through diverse applications of the latest technologiesCollaboration with external parties is indispensable for this approach, which brings in real-world problems andtestbeds to our experiential learning projects as is showcased by the collaborative projects with the Legal &Technology Centre and Social Work Department. Besides collaborations with faculty members in the University,we actively seek partnerships with industrial companies
