Individual test scores were not different across multiplesemesters including the Control and Intervention groups, and team scores in the Interventiongroups were increased by an average of 18% relative to the individual scores. Notably, each testcontained questions that were categorized as either “retention and recall” or as “comprehension”[12]. Comprehension questions assess students’ abilities to apply and integrate concepts in waysthat are useful for engineering problem-solving approaches, consistent with the idea oftransferable skill development.

The CEBOK3 can bealigned with course syllabi to reinforce how the courses being taken help fulfill theundergraduate education outcomes in the CEBOK3. Since these outcomes are closely alignedwith ABET criteria for civil engineering programs, this should not prove difficult to do.Throughout the four years of instruction, academia should continue to build understanding ofwhat is ahead for their students once they graduate.

This meant that the lesson plans would need to fit within a standard period, ablock period (for intensive courses), or two successive normal class periods for a middle school class.Designing with a standard bell schedule in mind meant that on average we would have 40-60 minutes ofinstructional time per standard period.

Ultimately, these skills should be integrated throughout the curriculum not just addedin a final capstone course and then the final capstone course should allow students to beimmersed in a professional environment. An industrial basis for as many projects as possible willprovide students the richest learning experience and help prepare them for their future careers.References [1] Home. (n.d.).

. As indicated by the first theme, ethics is an espousedvalue, but that value is not always reflected in the curriculum. With ethics only visible in selectengineering courses, the importance of ethics to engineering education and practice might not becommunicated to students. One implication of this finding is aligning purported values withcurricular requirements. Given social-technical dualism within engineering culture and thepriority of technical subjects [26], the limited visibility of ethics or its separation from technicalcourses can continue to reinforce this false dichotomy. Another tension arises when ethics isnarrowly constrained to academic integrity. Although an important component of emphasizingethical behavior, academic integrity
