departments aside from civilengineering to gain a broader perspective on learning community facilitation in universityengineering classrooms.Another variable that could be considered are the differences between core mid-level engineeringcourses (200- and 300-level) and capstone and design courses (400-level core courses). Designand capstone courses are typically meant to equip students with skills to undertake differentdesign projects and work collaboratively with their peers in small groups, oftentimes outside ofthe classroom setting. Student teams are also required to meet regularly with their instructors'giving students and faculty more opportunities for communication and camaraderie, whichallows for increased learning community facilitation.

coursework outside of the capstone that integrate multiple concepts, experimentation, and problem-solving approaches.MethodsThe blast load laboratory is one of ten labs offered in a course that is cross-listed as a senior andgraduate elective at a small public polytechnic institution. Course enrollment is usually aroundten students. The instructor has offered this course five times in the last ten years and this is thefirst year a lab devoted to blast loading was offered. Prior labs at this point in the course hadbeen devoted to comparing theories and methods: Duhamel’s integral, Newmark’s Method, andother time-stepping procedures to solve for structural response to arbitrary loading, a prerequisitefor further study of seismic ground motions

, modeling, simulation assignments,laboratory procedures, field activities, and capstone projects [11]. A primary purpose of hands-on activities is to provide learners with actual experiences that allow them to apply engineeringskills to reinforce knowledge and directly observe the outcomes of their efforts, which leads todeeper learning.In this study, a hands-on approach called, the Experiment-Centric Pedagogy (ECP) wasimplemented. This pedagogy has been found to actively engage learners by utilizing affordable,safe, and portable electronics in various educational settings (classrooms or laboratories). ECPcombines problem-solving exercises and constructive learning methods with a hands-on,portable multifunction tool that can be used in place of

Courses such asdynamics, engineering economics, surveying, thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, electricalcircuits, were listed in the three Fundamental Engineering (FE) elective courses where studentscan choose which they wish to take from a prescribed list. The is also an ARCE TechnicalElective which has a much larger list of courses from which a student can choose.The ARCE quarter program had four culminating experiences to include the three design labsand a separate senior project. The concrete/masonry lab becomes the senior capstone project andthe independent senior project is now an elective

[11, 12] introduced knowledge surveys (KS) to develop self-assessment skills instudents. Rather than requiring students to provide answers to learning prompts, KS requirestudents to rate their ability to perform the specified skill tied to a learning objective. Pre-courseor pre-unit of instruction KS allow faculty to discern prior knowledge students may bring to thecourse while serving as a cognitive “heads up” for students of learning objectives and material tocome [10]. KS completed in close proximity to an assessment event (e.g., exam, design project,or writing assignment) allow faculty to compare students’ self-assessments of learning with theirown assessments of student learning (i.e., the grade on the assignment). Such comparisons

sustainability offers the only viable path to human safety, equity, health, andprogress” [21, p. 6]. There are strong synergies between ideas of generational equity andsustainable development, for example [22], [23]. Within civil engineering, the infrastructuresustainability rating system Envision [24] is commonly used. Envision has been integrated intoengineering education as a method to educate students about sustainability [25], [26], [27]. DEIissues are included within the Envision credits including the following examples: • QL1.2 Enhance Public Health and Safety [24, p. 32] • “Measures taken to increase safety and provide health benefits on the project site, surrounding sites, and the broader community in a just and equitable
