Engineering Education, 2019 Call it what you want: Blending project-based learning and the flipped classroom model in a Civil Engineering courseAbstractBoth project-based learning and flipping the classroom have gained recent popularity inengineering education. These techniques change the classroom environment by placing theresponsibility for learning on the students. Through a change in the traditional lecture model,students develop a higher investment in their work and have more agency in the learning process.For this study, a senior level civil engineering class structured around the project-based learningformat and focused on geotechnical foundation design was changed from a traditional lecturedelivery format to a flipped
