Paper ID #13131Providing Students with Hands-on Experiences through the Construction ofa Treatment WetlandDr. Jennifer Mueller Price PE P.E., Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology Page 26.1283.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015Providing Students with Hands-on Experiences through the Construction of a Treatment WetlandAbstractBecause of their natural water treatment capabilities, wetlands have been constructed for onsitetreatment of stormwater and wastewater. As municipalities work to reduce
students would like to learn independently and are lessinclined to work in teams. Typically, these students do not perform in a team-based and research-based learning environment. However, the above team-based and research-based laboratoryexercises can be very instrumental in improving the student learning of the subject matter.Especially, the engineering design courses are increasingly being recognized and taught as ateam process with multi-faceted socio-technological dimensions.Fig. 2. Assessment of laboratory activities - numbers represent percentages (As a result of theteam based laboratory exercises, Q1- Understanding of the environmental relevance of thesubject matter; Q2 - My interest in environmental engineering discipline and confidence
