First,students individually scored their projects for a subset of the criteria - teams divided up criteriaamongst their members so that at least two people would score each criterion. Next, studentsdiscussed their individual responses with team members to arrive at a set of consensus scores,with written justifications, for all 14 criteria.

whether that is simply sketching a deflected shape or describing failuremechanisms. Rather than passively experiencing structural element or system behavior throughpictures, videos, simulations, and small-scale projects, full-scale testing provides students with afirst-hand, lasting understanding of fundamental behavior. Additionally, students also gaininvaluable perspectives often difficult to glean from traditional classroom instruction such asconstructability and tolerance issues. Full-scale testing is essential for student understanding ofstructural engineering concepts and there is a significant need for well-organized experientiallearning opportunities with appropriate scales that successfully illustrate structural behavior.
