Problem-based learning is a concept where students
face context of multifaceted, complex and realistic problems. It trains the
students to be more interactive in their learning, independent on what they do
and how do they do it. This competition is focus on 1st year UKM
Civil Engineering students. It is also evaluated as their final marks.
The goals of this competition is :
- develop flexible knowledge and skills
- effective problem solving skills
- effective collaboration skills
- intrinsic motivation
For the competition, the students will apply what they
know, what they don't, how and where to acquire the data and information to
achieve their objectives in completing the tasks given. There will be options
of problems to be solved, generally associated with Civil Engineering course (E.g.
flood, earthquake, material, structure or other relevant related problems). The
students will propose their projects through poster presentations and the
organizer encourages them to present graphical presentations (videos, slide
shows, software designs or mini models) to attract crowds and make their
presentations more interesting and interactive.
