However, if these goals can be met,not only will the profession benefit but also the academic experience for the architecture studentwill improve. Students of architecture have always raised concerns of "how do the pieces fittogether?” Students in Architectural Engineering Technology programs rarely have theeducational opportunity to see a studio project through each of these phases. The goal of DesignHabitat is to help students see the "whole picture" and thereby improve their ability to learn.Affordable Housing in the United StatesThe United States has struggled with issues of housing for all its citizens for many years.

I forgot that they were not things people just know.We addressed students’ conceptual difficulties by making the learning process visible to students(1DM). In addition, we created an inclusive learning environment by learning students’ names,providing active learning opportunities, incorporating technology, and creating environmentswhere students feel comfortable voicing questions and concerns.Communicating with students: There are multiple dimensions to this sub-theme
