potential areas of improvement.The remainder of this paper will summarize the physical models that were developed and utilizedin Spring 2015 to clarify challenging concepts in the introductory reinforced concrete coursetaught at the University of Illinois. The description for each physical model includes: targetconcept(s), suggested instructional activities, construction materials, as well as photographs. Thepaper will conclude with student feedback on the effectiveness of the models based on mid- andend-term course surveys. The overarching objective of this work is to provide other civilengineering educators with sample teaching tools to enhance students’ understanding ofreinforced concrete analysis/design theory and ability to visualize

because all the free response (long answer)questions received input from most of the students. Students provided constructive feedbackwhich faculty have found to be very useful in modifying the course content for future offerings.Table 2 gives a complete list of the categorical questions along with the response means. Over90% of the questions had a response average of 4 or more and nearly 75% of the questions had aresponse average over 4.5 or higher. Three questions received 5’s from all 11 students: • How studying this subject area helps people address real world issues; • How doing hands-on classroom activities helped learning; and • How the Design Charrette helped learning.Table 1 Springer 1 Course Student Assessment of

civilengineering faculty have sought to develop their program appropriately along a set of commonlyaccepted educational taxonomies; that is, Bloom’s Taxonomy. These widely known taxonomiesare based on the seminal work of the 1950’s educational committee chaired by Benjamin Bloom.The committee established a set of taxonomies in three domains of learning: cognitive, affectiveand psychomotor. The cognitive domain taxonomy is widely accepted in many fields and hasbeen identified as, “arguably one of the most influential education monographs of the past halfcentury.”3 The taxonomies are a language that describes the progressive development of anindividual in each domain and are defined as follows4:  Cognitive: of, relating to, being, or involving conscious

Alumni with this degree have reportedsatisfaction with the content of their education and enjoy successful careers. However since fewof the other college of engineering programs embraced the degree, the degree was terminated inthe late 1990’s. At this point, the department created an Engineering Management Option withinour program by securing an agreement with the College of Business to provide two MBAcourses that could be taken by our students. These two courses provided finance andmanagement instruction to engineering students but did not require prerequisites normal to otherMBA curricula. Ensuing retirements and budgetary issues

For engineers alone, this value has risen from 2.11% of the U.S. population in 2005 to2.71% in 2018 [17]. Additionally, the number of people connected to technology continues toincrease, as previously cited herein. It is therefore the authors’ assessment that the size of thepopulation of those involved with or affected by technology has both increased and become moremultidisciplinary.A study of the diversity portion of this prediction indicates that diversity has increased slightlyamong the U.S. science and engineering (S&E) workforce, although women and

With the correct mix of cement, water, aggregate, andadmixtures in addition to “Stamina, Teamwork, Strength, Imagination and Commitment,” yes,it will!The use of concrete to make a canoe is an unusual application of a common building material.In the 1970’s when some civil engineering college students decided to build a canoe usingreinforced concrete, concrete boats were not an entirely new idea. In 1848, Joseph Louis Labotof France built the first concrete dingy. The first ocean-going concrete ship was an 84-footlong boat constructed
