The course content matches very wellwith the knowledge needed to produce a geotechnical report such as required at the Minka site.From the faculty members prior experience teaching the course, it was desired to have the lab bea more dynamic and formative experience for the students. To do this, the Soil Mechanics classincorporated the Minka site soil into the laboratory portion of the class. A formative approachwas taken to the individual labs that would all come together to produce a summative project of ageotechnical report of the Minka site.For the first lab and before ground was broken at the Minka sites by the contractor, studentscollected soil samples at various depths to determine the

Teachingtechniques such as project-based service learning (PBSL) could increase a student’s awareness ofsocial responsibility due to the community engagement (typically with underserved populations)and the reflective aspect inherent in PBSL.
