Description
Summary:The manuscripts included herein introduce common learning theories and methods in engineering education that can be specifically applied to the topics of reinforced concrete and concrete materials. The papers focus on the application of these theories to specific concrete-related topics and suggest ways to implement these methods in university classrooms. The primary goal of this Special Publication is to provide pedagogical resources, ideas and techniques that can be implemented by anyone that accepts the challenge of teaching reinforced concrete and concrete materials, from a new instructor to an experienced professor. To disseminate effective teaching methods among a global group of educators and learners, ACI Committee S802 organized two sessions entitled "Best Practices and Lessons Learned for Teaching Concrete Materials and Reinforced Concrete" at the Spring 2021 ACI Virtual Convention. The first session was focused on best practices teaching concrete materials and the second session was focused on best practices teaching introductory reinforced concrete. The manuscripts in this Special Publication are organized in the order in which they were presented at the ACI Convention.
