sustainability, but also an increased demand for engineersand technicians knowledgeable and experienced in these areas. This requires the development ofinnovative curricula, new courses and new laboratories to educate students to work in these fastchanging industries. Engineering education moves into the twenty first century charged with anenvironmental agenda to respond to new economic realities. Enabling students to practice self-directed learning, to find solutions to design problems that are sustainable and to recognize thatthey are part of a global community are just a few of our educational goals. On the other hand,the renewable energy and sustainability are highly interdisciplinary, crossing over between anumbers of research areas, having strong

The design parameters were largely left to the MITTeaching and Learning Lab to define. In order to best support learning, the goals of the videoswere three-fold: 1) to reinforce pivotal concepts and multidisciplinary themes, 2) to provideopportunities for students to actively engage with content, and 3) to provide real-world examplesfrom everyday life, or from research, of the utility of these concepts. The videos were designedfor a variety of usage scenarios: in class, in recitation sections, for students to review whenstudying, and during faculty training workshops (to provide faculty with ideas for ways

A contribution towards addressing part of the challenges facing PV energy is to reduce the time and costs related to administrative processes, interconnection, as well as addressing planning and zoning issues. As a follow-up to the ARET study Dr. O’Neill and Dr. Irizarry led a rooftop solar challenge project under DOE’s SunShot Initiative. Three graduate students and six undergraduate students participated in this project. The team identified, analyzed, and provided best practices that could overcome processing and planning obstacles that impede a faster growth of rooftop PV systems. All the recommendations presented in the final report would have a great impact on Puerto Rico’s PV market; for

Concurrent to this growing deficit in technically-trained workers is the rapiddiversification of our population. In order to fill the gap, people from diverse backgrounds willneed to be motivated to choose engineering as a career choice2.

Then,we discuss the design and implementation of these lab sections. Next, we examine the success ofthese lab sections in fostering a sense of connectivity among ASP students through studentpre/post survey data. Finally, we reflect on strengths and areas for improvement and discuss nextsteps to continue creating a more equitable course.BackgroundOur CS1 course enrolls 600-1,200 students per semester.
