civil engineeringcurriculum. For instance, students in the Introduction to Civil Engineering course are exposed tothe design process and prepare group projects that demonstrate their understanding. A servicelearning project could have the students develop educational tools for high school students thatdemonstrate fundamental concepts of science and/or engineering. Junior and senior level coursessuch as Water Resources Engineering, Transportation Engineering, and Senior Design (I and II)require design projects. These projects have generally focused on specific community needs.The integration of service learning into the curriculum is also consistent with the EducationalObjectives of the program.

IntroductionWe address a pressing issue in engineering education – how to develop a comprehensive,integrated industrial engineering curriculum that thoroughly prepares graduates not only forindustrial practice or graduate school, but also trains students to readily recognize and apply theirengineering background to solve problems, both locally and internationally.

Scrap CDs were chosen as the primary building material for the CD-Robot due to theireasy availability and inherent need to be recycled. A picture of the CD-Robot is shown in figure 1 Page 8.1255.1below. The cost to build a CD-Robot is approximately $65.

Secondly, it is also suggested that the students associated with the course appreciatedand respected the instructor’s attempt at using a non-traditional method of engineeringinstruction. Finally, an attempt will be made to determine if the use of poetry actually assistedstudents with reinforcement of learned civil engineering concepts.It is anticipated that this paper will be of interest to any civil engineering educator with thewillingness to go out on a limb.BackgroundThis manuscript presents the result of a personal introspection on the subject of intentionallytaking myself out a comfort-zone in the class.

She struggled with achieving the feltexpectations of performing with excellence (“I make good grades . . . people know that”) while alsoremaining socially connected to others (“I still want to have friends”).We define shame to mean the socio-psychological interaction between cultural expectations andindividuals’ internal evaluations of how they are meeting these expectations.1-6 This definition is informedby literature in psychology and sociology.
