INTRODUCTIONThe collaborative nature of the engineering discipline is often translated to the classroom viagroup project work. The positive impact of project-based learning (PBL) has been welldocumented in the research literature and in previous ASEE proceedings, including successfulapplications as described in Yousaf et. al, 2010, and Figges and Vogt, 2017. Peer response tostudent writing and team-based learning are well established, evidence based practices thatimprove student learning (Cho and

countermeasures. Professor Nelson has published over 80 scientific peer reviewed papers and has been the principal investigator on over $40 million in research grants and contracts on issues of importance such as computer-enhanced transportation systems, manufacturing, design optimization and bioinformatics. These projects have been funded by organizations such as the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, the National Academy of Sciences, the U.S. Department of Transportation and Motorola. In 1994-95, his laboratory, sponsored by the Illinois Department of Transportation, developed the first real-time traffic congestion map on the World Wide Web, which now c American
