, assignments, exams, notes, and samplesof student work.1. IntroductionEffective teaching has always been a primary goal of engineering departments. TheAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) ensures a department’s overallteaching product and program content. However, the department is made up of its faculty, andevaluating teaching effectiveness of individual faculty has historically been troublesome. TheDepartment of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) at the University of Missouri-Columbia (MU) has recently adopted a new policy for evaluating individual faculty members’teaching contributions to the department and college. The impetus for the new policy is toreaffirm a commitment to undergraduate education, improve teaching in

More importantly, the laboratory provides students with practice inrecognizing and managing uncertainty in these engineering problems. While homeworkproblems allow students to practice the computations involved with probability and statisticsconcepts, the laboratory allows students to use the concepts to design civil engineering systems,making decisions based on performance and cost.
