coursedevelopment, leading to complete integration of intent and collaboration processes among thepartners.Early in the curriculum-development effort, faculty committed to following an inquiry-led modelfor the classroom, focusing on student-led collaboration rather than faculty-initiated learningprocedures. To facilitate this approach, the curriculum was developed around key concepts andquestions, rather than around lectures and information dissemination. By creating general areasof inquiry that span across disciplines, multiple faculty could provide the perspectives of theirown disciplines to inform a broader understanding of the topic relevance. For example, on thetopic of environment and society, the engineering faculty led the discussion and

Continuous feedback is crucial in PBL, guidingstudents to improve their methods and foster progressive thinking. However, PBL faceschallenges in widespread adoption due to the time and expertise needed for effective feedback,especially with increasing student numbers. This paper presents a novel approach usingGenerative AI, specifically an enhanced ChatGPT, to provide effective PBL feedback.

there is more freedom to incorporate their own knowledge and experience into the solution. Engineering has been a huge motivator for the students to put forth an effort with TAKS so they may participate in these other activities. TAKS scores on the science tests across the state are extremely low. Science has usually always taken a back seat to reading and math. Looking more closely at the scores, it is also apparent that the physical science strand is the worst performed. Teachers typically stick to the areas that they are comfortable teaching. Life science is where most of the curriculums start so these areas are covered before the crunch of test time approaches. Earth sciences are fun and the

The National Academy of Engineering has appealed toengineering programs to integrate theory and practice in the curriculum, and introducemore innovative learning methods that simulate industrial decision making in theclassroom and laboratory [1]. Hence, the challenge for engineering educators is the useof more innovative methods for instruction and learning to replicate real world problemsolving, and provide an environment for intellectual exchange of ideas and solutions in aclassroom setting.
