To address these issues, we developed a two-pronged approach using OEP-based strategies: implementation of a common project platformthat students will develop and solve throughout their undergraduate civil engineering experience,and implementation of a framework to help students scaffold ambiguous problems so that theycan tackle them appropriately and with confidence.In the current civil and environmental engineering curricula at RHIT students are exposed toPBL
