outline: 60 points o Paper draft (past): 120 points o Final paper: 200 pointsQuizzes were given at the end of each historical module (modules 2, 3, 4, and 5). These were‘open-book,’ individual online quizzes timed to one hour with a closed-end (true or false,multiple choice or matching) and open-ended questions. After the first module assessment, theinstructor added a quiz so that students could utilize their best four of five quiz scores. Theadditional examination was added within the modern architecture module because this was themodule with the highest number of lectures. As the semester progressed, the open-ended quizquestions were changed to either (a) short-open-ended questions or (b) more structured open-ended questions

to complete their degree within four years, or even abandon their education. The goal ofthis study is to identify some of the main reasons why undergraduate STEM students,particularly in Engineering and Construction Management programs, take longer to completetheir degree, or fail to graduate, and propose initiatives to support minority students incompleting their degree on time. To achieve these goals, this study: (a) identified the mainfactors contributing to this paramount problem from previous literature; (b) gathered andassessed data regarding students’ graduation rates from Florida International University (FIU),one of the largest minority serving institutions (MSI) in the U.S.; (c) administered a survey to 75Construction Management

The goals of this research are to identify the challenges and vulnerabilities of low-income communities, as well as gaps in construction trade knowledge and resources amongthem. Additionally, this research aims to investigate effective pedagogy to provide low-incomeindividuals with appropriate education, training, techniques, and expertise to aid in resilient post-disaster reconstruction. To achieve these goals, this research conducted a survey to architecture,engineering, and construction (AEC) experts from Puerto Rico to identify: (a) the majorchallenges and vulnerabilities of low-income communities post-disaster, as well as the mainissues of informal construction; (b

The studyaims to address the student’s disconnect of perception/expectations of professional careerchallenges by educating them about work-life balance while working as Construction Engineersor Managers in the construction industry. To achieve these goals, the study utilizes a three-stepmethodology: a) conducting industry professionals' interviews, b) conducting surveys ofconstruction management students predominantly in a minority-serving institution to determinehow significant work-life balance is when working for an organization, and c) recommendingdifferent curricula changes to better prepare recent graduates to thrive and adapt when enteringthe engineering and
recycling, reusing, reducing, andrethinking, and it is defined as designing materials for durability, reuse, remanufacturing, andrecycling to keep products, components, and materials circulating in the economy [1].Deconstruction is one of the circular economy methods for faster recovery of building products,parts, materials, and components to minimize environmental impact and maximize economicvalue through reuse, recycling, repair, and remanufacture [2]. For proper deconstruction ofbuilding components, buildings need to be designed for disassembly. Some of the key principlesfor designing the building for disassembly include: (a) proper documentation of methods andmaterials used for construction such that it can be utilized during deconstruction; (b
