Engineering - Civil (54)This project is collaboration among California Polytechnic State University, Michigan Technological University, and Yale University. It is working to integrate sustainability into engineering education by creating effective learning materials and teaching strategies that enable engineering faculty to incorporate sustainability approaches into their courses. They are working to test the value of Fink's significant learning taxonomy and the accompanying assessment methodology as they develop their educational design and assessment tools. The key elements of this project include a textbook in environmental engineering, adaptable course modules on sustainability for science and engineering disciplines, engineering courses with team-based, open-ended, inter-university projects, faculty workshops to disseminate these innovative teaching and learning practices, and an assessment study including the development of new assessment tools to measure the effectiveness of these approaches. Although the curriculum is specifically targeted at the civil and environmental engineering community, it can be generalized to other engineering programs. They will be disseminating their material and results by publishing their textbook, by promoting their instructional modules, and by providing several faculty workshops on their material and instructional strategies. In evaluating their project, they are using an assortment of existing and new assessment tools to determine the effect of their new materials and strategies on student learning and retention. Broader impacts include the dissemination of the material, primarily through their textbook and workshops, and the increased awareness of engineering graduates to sustainability issues.

工程-土木（54）这个项目是加州理工州立大学，密歇根理工大学和耶鲁大学之间的合作。它正在努力通过创建有效的学习材料和教学策略，使工程学院能够将可持续性方法纳入其课程，将可持续性纳入工程教育。 他们正在努力测试Fink的重要学习分类法的价值，并在开发他们的教育设计和评估工具时使用相应的评估方法。该项目的关键要素包括环境工程教科书，科学和工程学科可持续性的适应性课程模块，以团队为基础的开放式大学间项目的工程课程，传播这些创新教学和学习实践的教师研讨会，以及评估研究，包括开发新的评估工具来衡量这些方法的有效性。虽然课程是专门针对土木和环境工程界，它可以推广到其他工程项目。他们将通过出版他们的教科书，推广他们的教学模块，并通过提供关于他们的材料和教学策略的几个教师研讨会来传播他们的材料和结果。在评估他们的项目时，他们使用各种现有和新的评估工具来确定他们的新材料和策略对学生学习和保留的影响。更广泛的影响包括主要通过教科书和讲习班传播材料，以及提高工程毕业生对可持续性问题的认识。
