Integrating Sustainable Building Design and Construction Principles into Engineering Technology and Construction Management Curricula By Luke A. Nicholson, P.E. Paper Session #2221 ABSTRACTA sustainable system can be defined as a system exhibiting the characteristics ofcontinued successful operation indefinitely without degrading or reducing the suppliesthat feed the system, and without degrading the system’s surrounding environment. Thisdefinition can easily be applied to the construction industry, and thus is born the conceptof sustainable design and construction. As the world’s population continues to grow

The mathematicalmodules targeted the undergraduate mathematics courses in calculus and differential equations.Both mathematical modules were developed under the direction of the mathematics faculty whoteach these courses.Calculus ModuleMathematics and in particular calculus are integral requirement of STEM education. At ouruniversity, all students studying engineering and science disciplines are required to take calculus.Although the content of calculus is important for student's leaning in other courses, manystudents view calculus as hard and not useful.

sustainable systems. Objective 1 centers on the structure of the teams, where at least one student from each major anddiscipline is focused on the mission of the project. Success here is largely dependent on individual efforts.Teams with individual shortcomings can affect other disciplines as well as the overall success of the project.Spring 2020 and Summer 2020 MDID studios utilized a hybrid self-selection process for team formationthat look at student preferences that are balanced by various design and technical skills. This approach wasadopted from recommendations by the Lean Construction Institute (Seed, 2017). Strong teams with self-selected, motivated student clusters generated more successful and integrated outcomes. Objective 2

participation in effective PD activities and their integration in classroom settings.63This exploratory study is on-going and the project team is seeking to investigate effects ofeducational robotics on teachers and students. Specifically, we will examine how the incorporationof educational robotics in science and math curricula causes shifts in teachers’ instructionalpractices, leaning more towards RTPs. Scientific and engineering practices (e.g., using math andcomputational thinking) advocated by the NGSS constitute one pertinent example of RTPs. Toenhance students’ interests and learning outcomes, after participating in the summer PD, theteachers are implementing science and math lessons using robotics based on their knowledge,beliefs, and practices
a technical control problem, while a non-engineer such as a lawyer may consider the legal ramifications of an accident involving an autonomous vehicle.Similarly, Professor A wrote an email at one point stating: If we want the students to reimagine or rewrite the problem statement, we have to give them a “problem” to start with. That problem has to both have sufficient context so that a non-engineer might imagine solutions, but also has to have sufficient technical leanings so that there is room for improved sociotechnical integration. How do we write such a statement? And write it without leading the responses on either side?It is noteworthy that each of the five members of the research team
