Lastly, the mobile app for the scorers to use was developed. • Deaf-Centric Website Development: The R&D center hired students to design and build web sites with a DHH audience in mind, with emphasis on video and a highly appealing visual design. Students built web sites for external and internal clients. • NTID 50th Reunion App: NTID celebrated its 50th anniversary in June of 2018, and a few thousand DHH alumni turned out for the reunion. The R&D center developed a deaf- centric mobile application for the reunion. • Visual Communications and Arts Service: The R&D center has a service where consulting on design ideas are given to clients on the
disciplines of CE suchas Materials, Electrical Engineering, Thermodynamics, Construction, Hydraulics, Geo-technical,Structural, Transportation and Surveying (see Table 4).

remotecollaborative lunch session, where they ate lunch while talking about various topics[16]. APowerPoint deck was used to establish a discussion theme each week, and the participants wereinstructed to put together appealing presentations that communicated their viewpoint on thesubject. Each participant was invited to give these slides during the Friday lunch sessions,understanding that the discourse could shift to any other topic as the talks progressed [16]. Thefollowing are some examples of discussion topics: 1) “how pandemic affected their life,” 2)“what I have learned about operating effectively in a team,” and 3) “What is a profoundexperience you have had with technology that sparked your curiosity of how it worked or how itcould impact people’s

A 3-weekPBL program for undergraduate students was initiated during the summers of 2021 and 2022.The summer programs involved a total of 129 students, 5 course instructors, 20 industry mentors,and 20 academic mentors. The involved projects are proposed by industry sponsors, spanningcutting-edge technology and important social topics such as smart health, senior care, androbotics. The 3-week term of the projects is significantly shorter than a typical project life thatranges from seven weeks to an academic year. Each project was appointed with three designatedmentors, including an international academic mentor who connects with the teams remotely, anindustry mentor from the industrial project sponsor, and an onsite mentor who offers

Assignments were also added to help achieve the courseoutcomes. For the outcome “Interpret national and international green standards for buildingdesign and construction” a new project was added to the assignment in which students had tofind a few LEED O+M certified projects and study the projects. They had to then present theirfindings in class and develop an essay to discuss the different aspects of each project. Given thatmany countries in the world are using the LEED system, this assignment helps students becomefamiliar with the different ways LEED criteria are applied in different contexts and

To provide a balance of student technical learning, teamwork skill building, and the grading, thisexperiment is conducted in self-selected groups of four students. Depending on the class size, sometimes agroup of 3 or 5 is permitted. Students have a week to establish their own team. After that timeframe, thefaculty places the remaining students randomly in a few groups to conclude the teaming process. Whilethere are exceptions, the teams that were
