changes to requirements of accreditation [19] andprofessional formation development [20].Giacomin [16] citing Von Hippel [21], discusses the economic benefits of human-centreddesigning, however, Niles et al. [22], [23], have found that engineering students seem tostruggle with and resist social context and engagement with public welfare concerns andsocial consciousness in engineering– which are factors relevant to their engagement withhuman-centred designing.This paper stands with these ongoing calls for the engagement and integration of such notionsin a civil engineering curriculum, and so we propose a psychology-informed approach. Thisis to facilitate these integrations, but with the intention of bypassing the possible resistance –by

The results from studentsurveys indicate fairly strong support for the quizzes over homework and the use of a websiteover a more tradition format for the course. However, almost 25% of the students prefer a moretradition course format of weekly homework and writing on the board. IntroductionThe ultimate skill to be learned in an undergraduate engineering curriculum is “problemsolving.” Since essentially all engineering (and science) classes are limited to a narrowdiscipline
, civic organization or environmental authority. The practitioner(s) proposesa specific project with relevant work efforts that will complement their real-world assignmentsand can be completed by undergraduate environmental science and engineering capstonestudents. Faculty members work with the practitioner to refine the proposed capstone project tomeet the educational objectives of the capstone course. These mutually beneficial relationshipsresult in positive “community engagement” which is an increasingly important factor touted byuniversities. The positive community engagement aspect of capstone projects is especiallyimportant to state-funded universities for student recruiting, promoting programs to non-localalumni and for interacting with
styles. Research thatsupports efficacy of online education [19, 20, 21] highlights important features such as teacherpreparedness, clear guidelines, and structured coursework. These online courses typically arearranged in advance with planning and thorough organization about six to nine months before thecourse is delivered [17]. Another study found that aspects of online education that are integral tolearning virtually include staff's readiness and confidence, student accessibility and studentmotivation [23].This past March 2020, Universities across the U.S. experienced an emergency shift to remoteteaching almost overnight [24]. This sudden shift caused courses designed for face-to-faceinstruction to be moved online for “remote learning

consensus was to redesign the camp asa hybrid learning program where participants worked their way through a daily online curriculumthat resulted in the design and build of a model rocket that was then launched as a part of theculminating experience for the camp. The camp was designed so that students logged into NicheAcademy, an online learning management system, to complete 4 days of sequenced curriculum thatincluded lessons on the physics of flight, engineering design, and model rocket building skills. Eachday included rocket design or building activities. On day 3, participants submitted their designsimulations for review and approval. Once the designs were reviewed for stability and approved,participants could complete their rocket builds for

SCRUM: Scrum is an agile framework that promotes test-first and continuous integration in order to meet customers’ needs efficiently [17], [24]. Scrum framework promotes producing products faster by breaking large development projects into smaller pieces that can be completed in short timeframes. Examples of Scrum meetings include daily standups, sprint planning sessions, and sprint retrospectives [24]. Both XP and SCRUM emphasize continuously communicating with the users or clients in meetings [17], [24]. Students would meet with people affected by
