Project Description |
The objective of this project was to evolve the common core course, CIVL1140, from a conventional large-class classroom into an interactive learning environment by integrating team projects, experimental learning, service learning and peer learning into a flipped classroom. |
|
Project Outcome |
Step-wise inclusion and integration of team project-based experimental learning and flipped classrooms to CIVL 1140. An innovative teaching and learning approach that integrates flipped classroom learning, peer learning, team-project bases experimental learning, and service learning. A set of real-world practical problems that ask students to tackle these problems from identifying problems, acquiring knowledge, formulating and analyzing strategies, to the end of project delivery A few sets of environmental quality control gadgets made by the student teams, with multidimensional considerations of social constrain, science and engineering, cost-effectiveness, etc. This course is successfully reinvented to become an adventure to develop students' passion and interest through continuous exploring knowledge, overcoming properly-planned challenges, and making achievements in "saving-the-world" projects beyond their anticipation. |
