Transportation Engineering Education for Undergraduate Students: Competencies, Skills, Teaching-Learning, and Evaluation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)In general terms, engineering education at the undergraduate level should be based on at least three aspects: the definition of learning outcomes aligned not only with theoretical contents but also with competencies and ... -
Application of Problem-Based Learning to Teaching the Critical Path Method
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)This paper investigates the application of a problem-based learning (PBL) teaching methodology to a course on engineering project scheduling, which introduces the critical path method (CPM). During this course, students ... -
Using a Problem-Based Learning Approach to Incorporate Safety Engineering into Fundamental Subjects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Safety is considered as an important area of engineering education, but it is often not addressed adequately in an engineering curriculum. Contents of safety engineering were incorporated in an introductory statistics ... -
