Approximately690 students and 20 faculty members comprise the department including 360 Civil Engineeringmajors, 290 Construction Engineering Technology Majors and 40 graduate students.Current BSCE CurriculumAmong the degree programs offered by the department is the Bachelor of Science in CivilEngineering, which has been continuously accredited by ABET since 1936. Significantcurricular redesign was completed in 2007 and implemented in the 2008-2010 course catalog.With these changes, the faculty attempted to modify the curriculum to be consistent with theexpectations of BOK1.

One example quote from a student is,“While reading through I did notice that the BOK could be expanded to include… technologicalproficiency. Technological proficiency goes almost without argument in this day and age. As theworld moves from paper to computers it would be in the engineering world’s best interest tohave a good handle on technology.” A similar comment from another student was, “There aremultiple skills that could be added to the list, including general computing abilities.

Additionally, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET) currently requires the evaluation of student outcomes that rely on the higher levels ofBloom’s taxonomy [5]. In a traditional classroom environment, students are typically introduced to coursecontent using methods associated with the lower levels of Bloom’s taxonomy as the instructorstates, repeats, describes, and/or discusses factual and conceptual information in person.Consistent student feedback indicates

benefits of active learning, the nextquestion may be, “How do engineering faculty incorporate active learning in the classroom giventhe constraints of time and the amount of material that needs to be covered?” One potentialanswer to this question is the flipped or inverted classroom. The flipped or inverted classroomcan be defined as one where students obtain content from technology and apply that content withhelp from the instructor in class (Margulieux et al. 2014). The flipped classroom provides ameans of enabling the same amount of material to be covered by having students first interactwith the content outside of the classroom and then spend class time actively engaging with thematerial they were introduced to prior to attending class.With

From an assessment standpoint, thepretest and posttest question responses did not clearly distinguish whether it was the real systemdata or the real-time availability of the data that students found to be beneficial. Futureassessments will be designed to distinguish between these categories.
