United States Army.The Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering is one of 11 departments at the Academy,and both the civil and mechanical engineering programs are ABET accredited. The mission ofthe Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering parallels the Academy’s mission, whilefocusing on educating and inspiring students in the fields of civil and mechanical engineering2:To educate cadets in civil and mechanical engineering, such that each graduate is acommissioned leader of character who can understand, implement, and manage technology; andto inspire cadets to a career in the United States Army and a lifetime of personal growth andservice.The civil engineering program established 16 student outcomes to achieve the mission and meetthe

The other group seems to experience great difficulty with the open-ended learning and the independent problem solving that is needed for successful project completion. Sometimes they struggle greatly to carry their part of the work for the team to completion. This group does not necessarily correspond to the lower GPA students. The department hopes to explore further how to facilitate better open-ended problem solving earlier in the students’ careers. Perhaps this reflects the need for a combination of the triplet of Knowledge, Skills and Attitudes necessary for successful civil engineering practice. • There continues to be some confusion with the multiple

My consulting career provided a broad range of experience on mostly public works projects. Over the last 10 years I have managed the geotechnical laboratory which served more than 5 offices throughout the state for domestic and international projects. I have been teaching mostly geotechnical laboratory courses at Cal Poly for over 10 years.

This paper describes the creation andcomponents of a hybrid learning environment in a Statics course where a variety of pedagogieswere implemented. Notable activities included the use of an interactive online textbook, peerinstruction, in-class group problem solving sessions, video examples, and instructor led numericproblems. To investigate the effectiveness of the course, and where applicable the individualcontributions of unique activities, a number of feedback mechanisms were implemented over theduration of the course. These mechanisms included isomorphic questions to measure theeffectiveness of peer instruction, the use of
