Results show that climate perspectives do not necessarily increase or could possibly decrease whenactive learning is deployed. While much of the data was inconclusive, due to small sample sizes and a lackof statistical evidence, there were several observed trends that provide rich insights for educators. First, thesteel course had several unique instances compared to the modeling class. In steel design, four psychosocialdimensions can best predict grades while for computer modeling only two psychosocial dimensions predictgrades. Additionally for steel design, the most important climate characteristics for success are

learning styles in engineering, the majority of engineering educationliterature that relates to learning styles focuses on students [13,14]. For example, a study ofengineering students in Malaysia suggests that engineering students were more strongly Active,Sensing, Visual, and Sequential learners [15]. The same finding of learning style preferences wasfound in a research study that included students in computer science, civil, electrical, andmechanical engineering in India. These more recent studies are consistent with prior studies aswell. Among these studies, a key finding to note, however, is that while overall the populationswere more inclined to be Active, Sensing, Visual, and Sequential learners, the reported learningstyles across students

Thisconcept comes from the neuroscience literature that follows learning studies that have shown thatoptimal learning occurs when the average person in a cohort is being challenged at the edge oftheir competence – not so hard that they are discouraged, but not so easy that they get bored.This concept has been applied widely to machine learning and computer

Several lab activities are used as in-class activities while others that require more intensive calculations and reporting are assignedoutside of class. Additional course components include homework problems, a researchpresentation, and unit tests.Adjustments were made to the schedule and assignments to improve student learning andincorporate three teaching practices as described below. Throughout the course planning, carewas taken to rearrange the student workload, not increase it. Table

For this purpose,we plan to integrate this game module as a learning activity in an introductory structural analysiscourse. We also are developing a computer-based version that will support lower-costwidespread dissemination and implementation potential.

While civilengineering has also ventured into 3D printing [12], machine learning for infrastructuremanagement [13], and exploring materials for habitats on other planets [14], students are unawareof these innovations unless they pursue postgraduate studies. Thus, learning about these researchopportunities in a first-year undergraduate class may influence enrollment and counter the effectsof civil engineering being a discipline of the past [15].This paper aims to propose possible implementations of high technology in civil engineeringcurricula, such as
