There is an urgent need for K-12 teachers to develop the pedagogicalskills necessary to enhance student learning of computational thinking skills in STEM contexts[9]. There is also a general need (1) for teachers to understand technology use in the context ofthe STEM application, e.g. engineering design, (2) for redesign of pre-service courses and in-service workshops aimed at integrated STEM instruction, and (3) for STEM teachers of differentcontent areas to work together [10].There has been considerable work in the STEM community, in particular in Computer Scienceand

Preliminary assessment of this multi-lab-driven learning method for providing roboticseducation supports its effectiveness.1. IntroductionWith the continued advances in autonomous robotics over the several decades, it is becomingincreasingly vital that the development of a new curriculum on Robot Operating System (ROS)in a university be well aligned to technology advancements and applications [1,2,15]. The ROShas drawn attention from the field of robotics over the last several years [15]. The primaryobjective of ROS is to provide an open source, configurable, and unified programmingframework utilized for controlling robots in a variety of

is vital to educate students now to better prepare them to face many challenges in professional practice in the 21st Century. However, there is no existing civil and environmental engineering curriculum that addresses both PBE and sustainable design. It is impossible to design sustainable civil infrastructure while keeping the essential merits of PBE design without an integrating effective training for the students. How to address that is a challenge, but also an opportunity for educators in CEE. It is difficult to add a separate course on sustainability engineering, given the already heavy CEE curriculum in most universities. The integrated curriculum needs sustainability concepts to be introduced in a broad
