Still, many institutes have encouraged faculty members topursue the development of online courses to meet the rising demand for quality online education.The key terms here are “quality” and “education”.

safety education and safety culture should be pointed out. Thereis an extensive literature on “safety culture”, its constitutive elements, and the important roles itplays in accident prevention8,14,28. Safety culture earned its recognition following the Chernobylaccident, when the International Atomic Energy Agency identified the poor safety culture at theplant as the primary cause of the accident. A commonly accepted definition of safety culture isthe following: “the product of individual and group values, attitudes, perceptions, competencies, and patterns of behaviors that determine the commitment to and the proficiency of an organization’s health and safety management”.1It is fair to assume that teaching engineering students

education. In the hopes of filling the void, Gavin [11]suggests that “problem based learning should be used as a partial solution to developprofessional problem-solving skills through the application rather than the acquisition ofknowledge” and as such uses project-based learning in his capstone design course. Gavin’s [11]review of project-based learning was in context of a capstone design course that is focused onstructures engineering; however, the pedagogies described can be easily transferred totransportation engineering design. In the course, learning is directed by the problem itself andstudents are required to guide themselves toward a solution.
