example, Arlington will continue todevelop high school projects and curriculum on the benefits of recycling. Other benefits tostudent learning include:1. Students are forced to recognize that engineering and non-engineering aspects in solving societal problems are important.2. Students are forced to “think outside the technical box” to develop appropriate and realistic solutions.3. Students come to realize that professional and social responsibilities go together.From the perspective of the course or program administrators, inclusion of CSL projects providesa successful way to have students recognize the importance of soft constraints in developingsolutions to what is perceived a technological problem. This is important since engineers

transform teacher education programsthat prepare K-12 teachers in the areas of science, engineering and mathematics (SEM). The titleof the NSF sponsored project, InGEAR (Integrating Gender Equity and Reform"), suggested itspurpose: To promote equal access to quality science and mathematics education for boys and girls across Georgia. Equal access includes encouragement to explore and discover, intellectual challenge, and success that is born out of these opportunities. Access also includes awareness of career opportunities associated with science, mathematics and related technical fields, such as engineering.4The Georgia Institute of Technology was designated the lead institution in the consortium due toits reputation

educational experiences that are more meaningful. However, given the constraints ofthe modern classroom and available resources (budgets, technology, time, staff support, etc.), amajor challenge for engineering faculty is to create learning experiences that address multiplestudent outcomes. This challenge is especially critical when experiential opportunities Page 9.999.1(internships and cooperative employment) may not be as available as in the past.

The three-week Program Curriculum started from macro-level down to micro-level, fromdrawing a big picture to gradually introduce various modern design tools. It started from a transportationsystem overview (day 1) to transportation planning (day 2), to transportation management (day 3), thento each transportation mode (day 4: water; day 5: air; day 6: railway). From day 7, we came back to focuson highway mode and then zoom in to each specific technical area: traffic safety (day 7), highwayconstruction and management (day 8, day 9), Building Information Modeling (BIM) (day 10). From Day 11to 14, we spent four days looking into the modern technologies offered by geospatial engineering

Recently, wehave used a quantitative method to assess the amount of time a student studies materialassigned on the web as homework. The technology now enables us to measure the time spenton
