The same board has been in use for over adecade and is still fully functional, with the monetary investment rapidly approaching $0.50 perstudent and falling each time the course is taught. The power demonstrator board is a relativelylow-effort, high-payoff, educational tool that can be used with other existing laboratory andworkshop equipment to create a meaningful learning experience. It is easy to use and maintain,and it provides flexibility for instruction. The board can also be updated with new componentsand materials as technology changes and codes are updated.Integrated into a carefully designed learning experience, the power demonstrator board canprovide active learning for

previous knowledge of mechanical-based engineering concepts [4].Even though the field has been prevalent for decades, research into its educational aspect islacking. Research that does exist reveals course requirements for similar degrees vary acrossdifferent universities in the United States and abroad [2],[3],[4]. While unsurprising, this bringsup a question of how we can best prepare the next generation of transportation engineers from aneducational standpoint. A recent study from 2013 provides a broad overview of the current stateof students’ introduction to transportation engineering via a survey of 84 of the 224 civilengineering programs accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET) [3].

engineers understand andaccount for a myriad of evolving social issues (including climate change, sustainability,resiliency, and social equity), along with advances in technology that change our understandingof the problems we face, as well as the tools we use to solve them. It is not adequate for civilengineers to simply find workable engineering solutions. Society expects civil engineers todevelop the best solutions, to protect and advance public health, safety, and welfare – theirprofessional duty.Civil engineers must have a much broader and deeper understanding of these factors than everbefore, while the pace of change continues to accelerate.
