thecognitive and emotional benefits of social learning, group work is considered an importantstrategy for promoting the development of the teaming and communication skills needed forprofessional engineering practice [4]. Based on these contemporary instructional practices inengineering, new understandings of a) how engineering students interact with peers and usecourse-specific resources and b) how peer interactions and resource use correlate with courseperformance are essential for supporting engineering instructor decisions as they select anddesign course resources, develop group work activities, and implement new interaction strategiesin engineering courses.To investigate potential relationships, we employed Social Network Analysis (SNA

within specifications, the data showed that the flatness was out of control. This is likely dueto uneven shrinkage that occurred due to a poor distribution of colorant. The flatness of all thediscs are shown in Appendix B in a control chart. Weight consistencyWeight consistency is important to watch when starting a process, as a machine should produceparts that have a consistent weight. The weight of the discs was inconsistent once colorant wasintroduced. When colorant was added to the material, the weight increased a few gramscompared to the material without colorant, then it started to fall back down, as the colorant wasprocessed. The difference in weight based on color is shown in Appendix C

The 90 degreecorners 7 and 12 in Fig 2 had been manufactured without the vanes. To add the vanes, two brand newpieces need to be made from scratch. It is technically challenging to custom manufacture eight perfectlysmooth and angled vanes inside the channel as shown in Fig 5. The university machine shop does nothave the machine to manufacture them. It will be much more costly and take a much longer time tooutsource it to other big manufacturing firm.

knowledge to that of the facilitator who provides a context for self-discovery. Asfacilitators, teachers deepen student knowledge through: a) framing how a specific set of behav-iors leads to problem solving and b) bridging how certain processes look across contexts and dis-ciplines [18]. However, the empirical work on Logo calls into question the possibility of enactingeither camps’ goals. In spite of the rapid acceptance of the constructionist technology by educators and par-ents, early critiques of Logo stem from the lack of conclusive empirical results to support tradi-tional school expectations [19], [20], [21].

To shift engineering education,multiple ways to present concepts can aid student understanding and learning in science andengineering. Using case studies to enhance civil engineering education is not a new concept [4-5]; rather, both the student and instructor can learn new insights through this process regardingstrategies to improve learning and teaching. Case studies can be an effective way to teach
