ledto each university implementing a varying approach, these factors include: the software systemsutilized, computing/laboratory resources available, current and expected student profiles, as wellas the overall expected competencies.The software used at each university was based on instructor experience as well as industrysupport. Even though each university uses varying software, the interesting similarity is thenumber of software systems being used. Each course emphasizes process-oriented teaching,focusing on the process rather than the product [6]. The instructors all value the use of multiplesoftware tools rather than a singular platform to teach the different processes. Each instructorstrives to mirror the AEC industry trends and software
ProgramAbstractDuring the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic crisis, classrooms across the globe have abruptlypivoted to virtual learning strategies. This change has posed many challenges with both thepedagogical methodology for instructors and the learning environment for students. Moreover,this transition has prompted the emergence of new virtual instructional techniques. Due to theextenuating circumstance of the pandemic, the author’s institution introduced a wide range ofvirtual teaching modes while holding a limited number of face-to-face classes. Among thesecourses, Introduction to Graphics is considered to be a critical course that requires in-personlearning strategies, as it includes manual drafting with hands-on exercises.

, technology, architecture and buildingsciences, through integration of VR. VR was used to leverage a seamless virtual application thuscomplementing theories with unlimited interactive pedagogies, which kept learners engaged,interested and ultimately fosters retention particularly in haptic courses. Specifically, this studyintegrates the VR technology into an Environmental Science Laboratory to support teaching,enhance students’ understanding, and increase retention as well as triggering an interactiveeducational environment. This paper focuses on the method of advancing haptic learning withVR through introducing and analyzing five modules taught in a building sciences laboratorycourse in addition to sharing limitations and some lessons learned of
engineering, there were concerns about how social distancing, especially in laboratory exercises,would affect accreditation. The engineering and technology accrediting board, ABET, issued informationrelatively early about changes due to COVID-19. ABET determined short-term changes due to COVIDwould not need to be reported (ABET, 2020). In addition to concerns about having in-person classes andlab exercises, another concern expressed was how to communicate online in ways that are as effectiveas in person. Universities were prompted to provide additional faculty support for teaching and someeven identified some “hacks” that could be used for a graphical interface (University of Nevada Reno,2020). Other lessons learned include better ways to grade

. Achieving contemporary environmental policies requires the collaboration ofarchitects and engineers. Students should be prepared to become active contributors and leadersin the design, development, and management of high-performance districts and cities. In thispaper, the authors are sharing the process of creating and co-teaching an interdisciplinary eco-district course. The paper includes the course’s learning objectives, rubrics, assignments, casestudies, class projects, and learning outcomes. The paper also details the learning and practiceenvironment developed to instill the confidence to work in interdisciplinary teams.
