As the use of green roofs becomes more prevalent, an evaluation ofthe benefits and challenges may be something architectural engineering programs choose toincorporate into their curriculum. This paper aims to consider the particular challenge of addedweight to a roof structure, with the understanding that the addition of structural material tosupport this load must be considered alongside operational energy benefits that a green roofprovides. In addition, the research herein provides a methodological framework for evaluatingthe efficacy of energy-saving strategies in general, including relevant software tools

Aerodynamics is not a ‘science’, despite the convenience ofdifferential equations for calculation. Differential equations are Static, presupposing time-reversibility. Dynamic processes, best described in engineering thermodynamics, include anirreducible irreversible component.

growth rate for studies of high school computing averaged over 40% duringthe past decade. While that research has some indicators of being increasingly focused on equity,there are also substantial gaps. For example, while publications that include student disabilitystatus have been increasing, the number still remains very low (fewer than 5%). And while moststudies adhere to the practices of high quality research (e.g., specifying a research question), thereis some room for improvement.Implications: Awareness of the landscape of recent computing education research that focuses onhigh school students will enable education researchers to align their efforts with the needs of allstudents, including those who are less likely to study computing.1

It is well known thatlecture-based courses are not the best way for students to learn [1]. However, most instructorsstill teach this way [2], many assuming that motivated students will master content as they solvehomework problems, regardless of delivery method. Students largely agree, most frequentlyciting assignments and assessments — such as homework problems — as influencers of theirlearning methodology [3].Well-defined
