knowledge.American Society of Civil Engineers’ [1] Vision for Civil Engineers in 2025 establishes the needfor civil engineers to serve as “master builders, stewards of the environment, innovators,managers of risk, and leaders of public policy”. Therefore, the emphasis on cultivating andeducating the “next generation” of civil engineers to take on these roles is important. This emphasis has been evident in a number of engineering education guidance programssuch as ABET [2], National Academy of Engineers [3] and ASCE’s [4] Civil Engineering Bodyof Knowledge (CEBOK). Although civil engineering and public policy curricula are moreprevalent at the upper level graduate programs, effort to integrate public policy at theundergraduate level provides value in
) demanded the least average number of tries (1.07)to approve it. Notice that 12 out of 26 modules required more than 1.5 attempts on average forthe students to master these topics. Arithmetic is associated with critical misconceptions aboutnumbers and their operations [13], so errors are often constant and unnoticed by students.Unit 2 - Algebra: Figure 7 shows that Topic 2 (Definitions of Monomials and Polynomials) isone of the most complex topics in the course for our students since it required almost sixattempts on average for the students to succeed. In our experience, high school mathematicscourses put much emphasis on operative exercises, neglecting the conceptual ones, asdemonstrated by the excellent results obtained in Topics 5 (Notable

Aprogram was selected from every state and approximately 20% were private institutions. Thetype of degree offered at the reviewed institutions ranged from Bachelor of Science degree (B.S.)only, B.S and Master of Science (M.S.) only, and B.S. through Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.)degrees. Approximately 75% percent of the programs offered a doctoral degree in civilengineering and 91% offered some form of graduate degree.The list of 25 courses shown in Table 1 was compiled for use during data collection; this listincluded 10

Numerous authors and researchers have documented the need and benefits ofengaging students beyond the “traditional” lecture approach to improve learning in theclassroom. Lowman [1] in Mastering the Techniques of Teaching states: “Listening andthinking activities are the primary activities by which students learn during class, yet studentslearn most from what they see.” Similarly, Freeman and Walsh [2] identify engaging multipleintelligences, including spatial intelligence, as one of “ten brain-based

In the formstudents simply selected their name and submitted it. Over the duration of the program,attendance form responses were compiled into a master attendance sheet that tracked eachstudent's daily attendance. It was also noted in the master attendance sheet if a student came tooffice hours for additional help or clarification. As the program progressed, attendance ratesfluctuated, but overall trend lines indicate that as the program went on, attendance decreased, asseen in Fig. 2.Finally, after the last day of instruction, we sent the program participants a Google Form surveyto evaluate their
structure ofassessment in higher education. In addition to a rising awareness of the mental health impacts of high-stakes assessment, questions have arisen around accessibility and equity in our assessment practices.From this conversation, the practice of competency-based or mastery-based education has become ahot topic in pedagogically minded circles. To summarize, competency-based assessment is the practiceof developing targeted assessments and standards of performance for each individual skill or outcomepresent in the course and building an assessment scheme based on how many of those outcomes aresufficiently mastered in the allotted time. A defining trait of these schemes is the ability to repeatindividual outcome assessments as needed to

As they progress to each new experiment, we dedicate in-class time to highlightthe type of information they discussed for each element in the past and how that would translateto the new experiment.

Theauthors (who were also the instructors) focused this first-year course on helping students under-stand the importance of connecting technical and nontechnical skills and intelligence, combinedwith their knowledge of the world, to solving engineering problems [20]. They combined STEMand non-STEM instruction to connect engineering thinking to a broader set of intellectual skillsand interests. Focusing solely on the ability to master technical material fails to address this andproduces engineers with limits and blindspots, rather than the intellectually and socially diverseworkforce necessary to solve 21st century engineering challenges.

Highscoring students achieved similar exam scores regardless of the style of instruction. In addition tolearning more, students receiving competency-based instruction spent less time outside of classthan students receiving lecture-based instruction.1 IntroductionCompetency-based learning is a teaching practice in which (1) instructors define unit skills, orcompetencies, that students need to master; (2) students are formatively assessed on thosecompetencies; and (3) students are given an opportunity to re-learn material from a failedcompetency
