To create a shared domain within the COP, 10 middle and high school STEMteachers participated in 5 summer research projects focusing on renewable energy and datascience. Each research project included a team of 2 teachers mentored by an engineering facultymember and graduate student as well as an industry professional.

The program offers core courses in drafting, design,visualization, construction documentation and construction methods and materials. One of themainstays of the AS program in the AMS department is a series of documentation courses that isoffered right from the freshman level. The first course in the sequence is AMS 163; ArchitecturalDrafting, where students are taught architectural projections, dimensioning and modeling usingboth hand sketching as well as AutoCAD (ACAD) [10], this course is taken by students in theirfreshman year and it here that they are introduced to computer-aided drafting (CAD).

anintegration of process and knowledge to better serve the society are an essential part of theprofessional education of engineers [1]. Engineers, by definition, engage in problem solving on aregular basis, which has been identified as one of the 21st century skills [2]. However, researchhas shown that the problem types engineering students and practitioners solve differ [3], [4].Engineering students are typically given well-structured (also known as well-defined) problems,which have pre-defined solutions. They are used to reinforce recent course material covered inclass, and are heavily in a written and well-documented form. Practitioners, however, tackle ill-structured (i.e. complex real-world) problems, which are more vague and ambiguous

There aremany different active learning pedagogies that are implemented in classrooms including hands-on activities, demonstrations, labs, and peer led groups. These different pedagogies are allconsidered active learning; however, some may be more effective than others at keeping studentsengaged and teaching the material.
