Student Reactions To a Problem-based, Fourth-year Computing Elective in Civil Engineering.
Hadgraft, Roger
European Journal of Engineering Education, v22 n2 p115-23 Jun 1997
Describes how a fourth-year computing elective was introduced at Monash University in 1995 with the goal of allowing students to pursue their own computing interests in a project-based subject. The course demonstrates student-directed learning and the pride resulting from such ownership. Shows how the subject can use a wide range of resources including the Internet. (AIM)
