Abstract
One critical element of civil engineering is the ability to visualize the economic, social, environmental, and political consequences impact that design decisions will have. Geographic information systems (GIS) enable users to visualize some of these factors and are ing a critical tool for the civil engineering design professional. In an effort to enhance students’ learning experiences not only by actively engaging them in the learning process through a design-based approach, but by also providing the opportunity for students to e proficient in state-of-the art software applications typical in the civil enginee
