Yasmany García-Ramírez – Advances in Engineering Education, 2024
Due to its positive results, active learning has spread to most areas of knowledge of Civil Engineering. Many of these studies used only one technique, which is limiting given the diverse learning styles that the students may have. The road geometric design is the area that has been the least explored in Civil engineering. Therefore, the objective…

William H. Collinge – Journal of Civil Engineering Education, 2024
Civil engineers and project managers must control and manage the project management discourse with the client and other stakeholders or risk slippages to time, cost, and programs. This paper explores how communicative choices and the representation of project requirements and engineering issues are intrinsic to effective civil engineering work.…

McCord, Kieren H.; Ayer, Steven K.; Perry, Logan A.; Patil, Karan R.; London, Jeremi S.; Khoury, Vanessa; Wu, Wei – Education Sciences, 2022
In civil and construction engineering education research, a focus has been on using 3D models to support students' design comprehension. Despite this trend, the predominant mode of design communication in the industry relies on 2D plans and specifications, which typically supersede other modes of communication. Rather than focusing on the…

Edmondson, Vikki; Sherratt, Fred – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Universities face the challenge of developing undergraduate structural engineering students' design judgement. This study evaluates whether introducing 'learning from failure', centralised around 'real-world' case studies, serves to facilitate the development of engineering judgement in structural design. The study identifies the use of three…

Mihret Dessie, Wondifraw; Kassahun Bewuket, Haile; Esubalew Tariku, Mekonnen – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
The prevailing civil engineering graduates' technical writing and oral presentation-related drawbacks have necessitated the design and implementation of demand-driven courses applying interdisciplinary pedagogy. This study investigates civil engineering academia-industry interdisciplinary contents, methods, and situations needed to design…
