. Specifically, she is interested in novel design processes that financially and technically facilitate energy-efficient buildings. Her work also explores how principles of lean manufacturing facilitate energy-efficiency in the commercial building industry. Another research interest of Kristen’s is engineering education, where she explores how project- and experience-based learning foster better understanding of engineering and management principles. Prior to joining ASU, Kristen was at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) as a Postdoctoral Fellow (2009-11) and then a Scientific Engineering Associate (2011-2012) in the Building Technologies and Urban Systems Department.

Activities that require spatial ability includenavigation, mental rotation, and perception of objects. In this paper we define spatial ability as aquantification of a measurement of spatial thinking.Students who have high spatial ability have demonstrated higher levels of success in academiacompared to their peers, especially in areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics(STEM) [3]–[5].

Unfortunately, it is still a rather time consuming process.My best estimate based on the work reported in this paper is that an experienced user can expectto spend at least an hour to produce a simple ten-second animation.But why use music? My experience is that a majority of the engineering and technology studentsrelate well to music. I choose familiar tunes that most students will recognize. I would like tothink that when they hear a particular tune in the future, their minds will connect with a technicalconcept.

Each student can learn and grow, given that science,mathematics, and technology teachers approach them as individuals with specific learning needs tobe discovered. Putting it in terms of science and technology, each interaction between aninstructor and a student is an experiment in learning. This engineer will bring that emerging viewto teaching his college students.

ABET, formerly known asthe Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, has changed their accreditation criteriain the late 90s from focusing on what is taught in the classroom to what the student would be ableto do after taking a particular course (Prados et al., 2005). It is the goal of educators to producedeep learners who will be able not only to grasp what is taught in the classroom, but also connectit to real world problems. Therefore, based on exploration of students’ conceptions of learning,approaches to learning, motivation and their experiences of the teaching-learning environment,educators can devise pedagogical tools that guarantee some level of deep learning. In addition,educators need to create successive contexts

Most community colleges are open-accessinstitutions, with students coming from all different walks of life to enroll in these schools [1].These include students directly out of high-school, or those that are returning to school for asecond career. When looking that the demographics of community colleges, we find that theyserve a disproportionate number of students who are marginalized [2].
