Learning Management System (LMS).While Mentor TAs are welcome to attend the larger presentation classes, they are utilizedprimarily in the smaller class meetings. These classes begin with a short 5 – 10 minute topicoverview, followed by a 15 – 20 minute discussion using a think-pair-share approach. Theremaining class time (45 – 60 minutes) is devoted to team meetings. During these sessions,Mentor TAs take attendance, facilitate course logistics, and ensure that each team receives atleast two visits from different individuals during the “team meeting” portion of the class. In thevirtual environmental Mentor TAs provide feedback to students on individual and groupsubmissions, many of which are foundational for the semester-long group project. For

The primary purpose of the introductorypresentation was to provide students with an understanding of the magnitude of the excavation.The students were then shown a demonstration where moist sand was transferred from one cupto another of identical size. Despite fitting perfectly into the first cup, the soil overflows from thesecond cup, due to particle rearrangement and a change in void space

With a decline in both the engineering enrollment and graduationrate, the U.S. government, industry, and academia have become more dependent on the foreignengineering workforce16. As a result, the National Science Foundation (NSF) has fundednumerous projects with the goal of recruiting and retaining students in this field10,11. Whileattracting students to engineering majors requires an increase in outreach and an improvement inthe overall perception of engineers in society, retention can be enhanced by increasingengagement in engineering curricula11.

This paper providesresults from an initial study evaluating the prior implementation relative to the enhanced versionof the course. The primary focus is to determine the impact of using small challenge projects toincrease the effectiveness of learning and instruction with second year civil engineering students.BackgroundChallenge-based instruction engages learners in complex problem spaces that require thecoordination of multiple concepts to define an effective solution[1,2,4,5].
