AB  - Project-Based Learning in Transportation EngineeringABSTRACTThe paper discusses the result of an ongoing study on effect of project based learning onstudents learning outcome in Transportation Engineering Course which is a compulsoryjunior level courses in the Civil Engineering curriculum at NC A&T State University.The course was taught in 2008, 2009 and 2010. The course was transformed from lecture-based course to a project-based course integrating project to drive the learning whileprojects are used as stimuli for students learning. To evaluate and compare studentslearning between lecture-based and project-based teaching approaches, a surveyinstrument was used. The survey instrument includes five constructs to measure fivedifferent aspects of students learning including 1) higher order cognitive skillsimprovement, 2) self-efficacy improvement, 3) ease of learning subject matter, 4) teamworking improvement, and 5) communication skills improvement. The survey on Pre-assessment and post-assessment of student learning outcomes was conducted todetermine the effectiveness of project-based approach in enhancing students learning.The results show that use of project-based approach significantly improved students’teamwork skills and self-efficacy.    Students’ narrative evaluations of their learningexperience were also very positive, identifying the integration of project into the coursecontent as one of the key benefits.Keywords: Project Based Learning, Self-Efficacy, Cognitive skills, Teamwork
