C2P2 Oriented Laboratory Instruction in Geotechnical Engineering using Digital Videos and Evaluation of its Impact on Students' Learning

土木工程-土木工程(54)几乎所有的土木工程结构都由土壤或岩石支撑，设计工程师在很大程度上依赖于通过现场测试和实验室测试确定的土壤和岩石特性来确保结构的完整性。因此，土木工程专业的学生必须彻底了解土壤的特性以及通常用于确定各种土壤性质的实验室技术。该项目正在开发数字视频，旨在提高学生对岩土工程中常见实验的理解，并帮助学生为土木工程师的专业实践做准备。正在开发的数字视频的内容包括关于如何进行常见实验室实验的说明，以及这些实验如何与实地实际工程项目相联系的演示。材料中包含了关于实际数据的简化和分析的说明。这些视频还包括关于已经发生或可能发生的故障的信息，这些故障直接适用于所讨论的实验。这些数字视频对学生学习的影响正在得到严格的评估，这些视频正通过商业企业和专业团体广泛传播。

Engineering - Civil (54)Nearly all civil engineering structures are supported by either soil or rock and design engineers rely significantly on the soil and rock properties determined through field tests and laboratory tests to ensure structural integrity. For this reason, it is important that civil engineering students have a thorough understanding of the behavior of soils and of the laboratory techniques commonly used to determine various soil properties. This project is developing digital videos designed to improve student understanding of experiments commonly performed in geotechnical engineering and to help prepare students for professional practice as civil engineers. The content of the digital videos being developed includes instructions on how common laboratory experiments are performed as well as a demonstration of how these experiments are linked to real-life engineering projects in the field. Instruction on the reduction and analysis of actual data is included in the materials. The videos also include information about failures that have occurred or that may occur that are directly applicable to the experiment in question. The impact of the digital videos on student learning is being rigorously evaluated and the videos are being distributed broadly through commercial ventures and professional societies.
