Project Duration

Nov 2004 - Jun 2005

Project Description

The objectives of this project were to identify the appropriate subject matter (e.g. stress, deformation, collapse, pollutant movement, landfill) that could be taught by using models and video clips, and to fabricate models and video clips for civil engineering courses in order to enhance teaching quality and performance. These products were used for classroom teaching.

Project Outcome

  • Fabricated models and video clips for engineering course as to enhance teaching quality.

  • Video clips were used in Spring 2005 in CIVL141  and CIVL344 with 165 students.
