Laura I. Spears, PhD, University of FloridaAbstractPrior to embarking on a major renovation of the University of Florida’s (UF) science andengineering library in 2022, the library asked their patrons, including engineering students, whatthey wanted in an academic library space. How do engineering students use their academiclibrary and what do they envision as an ideal space? The library teamed with the Department ofInterior Design in the UF College of Design, Construction and Planning to collaborate on a studyof the top two floors of the library that were slated for renovation. The goal was to develop floorplans that facilitate innovative research, creative thinking and problem-solving. The studymethodology included an observational study

economy. However, this industryfaces a significant challenge due to the high cost of building, workers' low productivity, and lackof innovations [1]. One of the main strategies to enhance the performance of the construction isthe use of digital technologies, such as Building Information Modeling. This technology enablessimultaneous site planning and building element production, which can reduce project deliverytime by 30% to 50% [2]. Nonetheless, many AEC firms have found it difficult to use this tooldue to cultural resistance and implementation costs [3]. Therefore, given the advantages ofdigitalization, there is a need to uncover solutions to break the boundaries of employing BIM inbuilding design projects and construction sites.For educators

(2) Embed a community of practice in existing structures and norms, such as facultymeetings. Be creative in bringing discussions of teaching into such spaces. (3) Developmultidimensional measures of student assets, growth, and development. Staying only withmeasures of progress on conceptual learning misses much about students' development aschemical engineers. With regard to supporting students, we also share two key strategies: (4)When teaching technical communication, offer limited but specific feedback and require revisionand reflection.

Cognitive learning refers to acquiring knowledge at increasinglevels of complexity, as in Bloom’s Taxonomy [3], and is measured through course assessments(e.g., exams).
