sophomore-level course introducing students to tools and techniques, such assurveying, understanding maps and plan sets, and field sampling, required for their CivilEngineering curriculum as well as throughout their professional career. This course wasoriginally a project-based course that included many of these core aspects of Civil Engineeringbut used outdated equipment such as theodolites for surveying and planimeters for measuringareas on maps, rather than modern technologies. Subsequent iterations of the course haveincluded more up-to-date technologies but lacked cohesion, covering a range of topics and CivilEngineering disciplines but not in a way that clearly connected them together.Project-based learning is a type of inquiry-based learning

First,consider planning activities in which student create simple tangible artifacts. We have observedthat when students know they will walk away with even a simple product, they are often highlyengaged. Second, invite students to use tools and technologies that they may never have used—or that they use infrequently at school. We have found that students typically show great interestin learning how to use new tools and

An engineering designexperience was also included that consisted of the participants following the engineering designprocess based on a given scenario. It entailed the participants practicing problem-framing,planning a solution, and developing a prototype of their design. This allowed them to take on thestudent perspective of the type of lesson they will be teaching. A discussion of best practices forfacilitating this kind of experience concluded the first day. The second day was dedicated to thefamiliarization of the problem-framing activities
