• Systems Thinking for Knowledge Transfer in Organic and Mechanistic Organizations: State Government Transportation Research Organizations
  Abstract: State government transportation agency research units exist within traditionally hierarchical or mechanistic organizations. They manage and conduct research studies and ensure the successful transfer of knowledge through both inter-organizational and intra-organizational relationships, and knowledge transfer activities. These activities may entail the transfer of knowledge at the local, state, federal or international level. Improving knowledge transfer will ultimately improve organizational performance. Use of Burns and Stalkers’ dualism: “mechanistic” and “organic” management systems, to describe government organizations, will aid in recognizing the current condition, and identify the characteristics of an environment that will be more conducive to efficient knowledge transfer. This information will help decision makers within these organizations to select the appropriate organizational structure, or processes, to enhance knowledge transfer. Increasing amounts of information and growing organizational complexity require a “systems thinking” approach to identifying opportunities for improvement within these organizations. This paper describes how systems thinking can aid in exploring knowledge transfer within organic and mechanistic state government organizations. It offers contributions to the body of knowledge concerning government entities and intentional knowledge transfer.

• Expanding Transportation Education Across the Academy: The Sustainable City Year Program
  Abstract: Transportation agencies are grappling with new and unfamiliar issues from addressing big problems like climate change to focusing on accessibility, where land use, urban design, and active transportation modes are more important. These challenges come at a time when the resources necessary to meet them are scarce and many agency staff members are reaching retirement. At the same time, Universities continue to attract a new generation of students who are not only comfortable and familiar with these new concepts, but are eager for a workplace that embraces this multi-disciplinary environment.A multi-disciplinary approach that includes fields not normally associated with transportation would seem to be critical to making sustainable transportation thrive in the complex environment of the city. The Sustainable City Year Program (SCYP) at the University of Oregon addresses this complexity head on by annually connecting twenty-five courses across ten or more disciplines with transportation and other sustainability projects identified by city staff of a different city each academic year. Each year, about 25 faculty and 500 students give over 80,000 hours of effort to help local cities move forward on vexing issues. Students gain professional hands-on experience, an opportunity to learn from multiple disciplines, and an understanding that complex transportation issues require a diverse set of skill sets and perspectives to solve. This paper describes SCYP, highlights a few transportation-specific projects that “non-traditional” transportation students take on, and presents a new model for higher education across the country that can help train the next generation transportation workforce.

• Outsourcing and Its Impact on Knowledge Management: Case Study of Kentucky Transportation Cabinet
  Abstract: Outsourcing various governmental functions has been a popular trend among state agencies for the last few decades for numerous reasons. For transportation departments, like the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, the responsibility to provide a wide array of services and functions has led to the outsourcing of a number of functions traditionally done in-house. Once an agency has determined which functions will be conducted in-house and which functions will be outsourced, further thought must be given to the level of knowledge retention within the agency. As functions are outsourced and older workers retire, the amount of tacit knowledge contained within the organizational diminishes if there are not systems in places to capture and disseminate such knowledge. The primary goal of this assessment is to determine how outsourcing is affecting the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and what trends may be emerging regarding future outsourcing. The secondary goal of this assessment is to determine if the Cabinet has any mechanisms designed to capture critical agency knowledge that may be lost when specific job functions are outsourced to the private sector. Some recommendations are offered regarding the implementation of knowledge management systems as knowledge management systems are integral for tapping into the collective intelligence and skills of employees.

• Assessment of Introductory Transportation Engineering Course and General Transportation Engineering Curriculum
  Abstract: Transportation engineering is a critical sub-discipline of the civil engineering profession as indicated by its inclusion in FE exam material, its overlap in most other specialty areas of civilengineering, and as recognized by the Transportation Research Board, Institute of Transportation Engineers, and the American Society of Civil Engineers. With increasing transportation workforce needs, low numbers of students entering the ‘pipeline’, and limited hours within undergraduate civil engineering programs, it is important to ensure civil engineering students receive adequate preparation and exposure to career opportunities in the transportation engineering field. As such, investigations into the status of transportationengineering within civil engineering programs and specifically the introductory transportation engineering course are essential for understanding the implications to the profession. This paper first presents a review of relevant literature and findings from a new survey of ABET accredited civil engineering programs (n=84 responses). The survey indicates that 87 percent of responding programs teach an introductory course, and nearly 80 percent require it in their undergraduate programs. There is significant variation in the structure of the introductory course (number of credit hours, lab requirements, etc.), and common responses regarding improvements that could be made include adding labs, requiring a second course, and broadening course content. In addition, nearly 15 percent of faculty teaching the introductory course did not have a transportation focus area. This finding should be investigated further, given that this course may be a civil engineering student’s only exposure to the potential in the profession.

• Exposing Minority Students to Transportation and STEM-Related Careers Through Summer Education Programs
  Abstract: The aging of the American workforce will lead to shortages in skilled workers throughout the country in the near future. Minorities are already underrepresented in the transportation industry, and without immediate intervention the conditions will not improve. To address the anticipated shortfall in skilled minority labor, the Federal Highway Administration, in coordination with the South Carolina Department of Transportation and the South Carolina State University, developed the Summer Transportation Institute (STI). In the Texas Gulf Coast region, the Center for Transportation Training and Research at Texas Southern University has introduced the transportation industry to minority high school students while emphasizing the importance of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) skills in tomorrow’s workplace through summer education programs for nearly ten years. This study examines the core curriculum of those programs and discusses their potential applicability’s in other regions of Texas.

• Adult Learners: Principles, Barriers, and Best Practices
  Abstract: Abstract:The practice of teaching and educating adults, commonly known as andragogy, touches many areas of workforce education. Programs such as the Tribal Technical Assistance Program (TTAP) and Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) and others have adults as their primary audiences. Bringing 30+ years of experience as a practitioner and a researcher, the author will give valuable information about adult education and its basic principles, barriers and best practices as well as the impact of societal and generational changes on adult education. This session will provide summit attendees current valuable and practical practices which could be implemented in their next training sessions or classes. With a continued “Graying of America” and increased emphasis on learning throughout one’s life span, all educators, both formal and informal would benefit from knowing more about the topic of adult education. Scholars such as Knowles, Merriam, Brookfield, and Mezirow have contributed valuable research in this field. Adults are different from youth with different needs or reasons for pursuing education as well as differing levels of motivation. Adults also seek to learn what they have identified as important, look for immediately applicable learning as well as focusing more on problem centered learning rather than subject centered learning. Generational theory in relationship to adult education will be discussed as it relates to tailoring of educational approaches. This paper will provide best practices to increase the effectiveness of the teaching/learning process.

• Transatlantic Dual Master's Degree Program in Transportation and Logistics Systems: First Two Years of Implementation
  Abstract: In August 2010, The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), Czech Technical University (CTU) and University of Zilina (UNIZA) jointly launched the Transatlantic Dual Masters Degree Program in Transportation Science and Logistics Systems. Under this program, a graduate student will spend one a year study at UTEP and another year at CTU or UNIZA. Upon the completion of the two-year program, the study will earn two master degrees. This project requires two years of preparation that lead to a successful proposal submitted to the funding agencies in U.S. and the European Union, followed by one year of administrative preparation before the actual student exchanges began in August 2011. The first cohort of eight students has successfully completed the program in June 2012. This article reports the sequence of events that led to proposal submission and award, major issues surfaced and challenges overcome during administrative preparation phase. This paper also documents the experiences of the professors and students who have participated in this program, and shares the key factors that have led to the successful implementation in the initial years.

• How Service Learning is Integrated with Transportation Curriculum to Support Career and Education Development
  Abstract: The Transportation, Logistics and Cargo Security (TLCS) Program at Anne Arundel Community College (AACC) was created to provide new students and incumbent workers with a broad understanding of the transportation industry. The success of the program has led to continued educational offerings for students interested in industry credentials. The program focuses on professional education and ties these concepts to current workforce needs, career awareness, and career preparation through many methods. Delivered content provides career opportunities through professionally created program videos, classroom content, guest speakers, and local field trips. Students learn industry skills and knowledge through the participation in service learning and engaged learning projects. Service-learning, which provides applied learning experiences by linking community service, curriculum, and reflection are effective educational tools used in the TLCS Program. Active and engaged learning activities are also used to provide students hands on experiences to tie classroom material to workforce activities. TLCS program students apply supply chain and transportation concepts though participating in specialized activities. This example of utilizing active learning activities supports growth in industry education and career knowledge.

• Knowledge Management as Part of Strategic Workforce Development in Transportation Agencies
  Abstract: Organizations facing turnover of employees due to retirements, new demands, budget constraints, and other unforeseen circumstances are at risk for large amounts of critical knowledge walking out the door unless steps are taken to preserve it within the organization. Organizational support of knowledge transfer mechanisms that address both the tacit (unwritten experience) and explicit (codified) knowledge is vital to avoid this loss and to quickly on-board new employees. This submission provides a synopsis of NCHRP Project 20-81 and resulting Report 685, entitled: Guide to Implementing Strategies to Attract and Retain a Capable Transportation Workforce as it relates to implementing successful KM programs within transportation agencies. This paper also highlights the importance of KM programs in larger workforce development efforts while providing supplemental KM research and lessons learned. Finally, we provide a detailed description of the Virginia Department of Transportation’s award-winning knowledge management program.

• Estimating Workforce Needs for High-Speed Rail in California and the U.S.
  Abstract: This study assesses the overall impact of job creation associated with the anticipated construction of a high-speed rail (HSR) network in the US, particularly in California, which is scheduled to begin construction as early as September 2012. Using variations of a “bottom up” estimation technique, this study provides estimates of the quantity and type of workers needed during the design, construction, and operation of high-speed rail infrastructure, and attendant education and training needs. Given the high profile of national and state commitment to the project, as well as its potential as an employment generator, a comprehensive analysis that discusses the education, training and related needs created during the build out of the HSR network is timely. By using a more accurate “bottom-up” approach to estimate the labor, education, and training needed to complete the California HSR network, this report seeks to identify the magnitude of the workforce development challenges that lie ahead in the implementation of the national HSR system.

• Professional Development Summer Institute: Curriculum Development Using Technology Application and Student Experiences in STEM
  Abstract: Not every student in the United States receives the math and science education which will enable them to achieve the skill needed to interact and progress within 21st century transportation professions. This is especially true for positions in transportation and logistics, an ever-growing field that attracts academics and professionals with significant expertise in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Reflective of this, the Mid-America Transportation Center and the Nebraska Center for Research on Children, Youth, Families, and Schools, both located at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, have partnered together, since 2006, to create the Professional Development Summer Institute, which helps teachers revitalize their expectations of math and science education. An interdisciplinary team of faculty with expertise in transportation research and education collaborate with teachers to design innovative lesson plans, using multimedia tools and state-of-the-art transportation research. As a result, teachers return to their full-time classrooms, ready to strengthen students’ achievement and to fuel their interests in transportation career pathways. To date 79 teachers and over 3,500 students have been positively impacted by the program in the development of 77 engaging STEM lesson plans. One of the most significant long term outcomes was the establishment of a new culture of collaboration among educators, engineers, and industry professionals. In addition, the results from the summer institute have and will continue to contribute to the growing body of STEM literature on effective teacher professional development practices and effective instructional practices for students.

• Meeting The Needs – What Does The Railroad Industry Need And Expect From Higher Education?
  Abstract: Rail transportation and engineering education in the United States (U.S.) was neglected for decades, due to lack of demand for graduates in the field. However, an increase in freight rail transportation volumes combined with a growing interest in passenger rail development has re-energized the academic community. Currently, several universities are either investigating or implementing rail-related activities. Because of the long disconnect between the industry and academia, several challenges have arisen regarding what the rail industry needs and wants from graduates and universities. Some of the challenges include the quantitative and qualitative demands placed upon graduates by the industry as well as industry preference for types of education and the perceived benefits from university education and university-industry collaboration. The educational background of current industry employees and its importance on their career selection are also of interest. This paper utilizes the outcomes of two on-line surveys of industry employees to bring light to the questions presented above. Over 1,000 industry employees participated in the surveys that were conducted in 2006 and 2010. The second survey was conducted as part of a collaborative study between the U.S. and the European Union, allowing direct comparison of opinions between the U.S. and international workforce.

• Multiagent Route Choice Game for Transportation Engineering
  Abstract: In undergraduate transportation engineering courses, traffic assignment is a difficult concept for both instructors to teach and for students to learn, because it involves many mathematical derivations and computations. We have designed a multiplayer game to engage students in the process of learning route choice, so that students can visualize how the traffic gradually reach user equilibrium (UE). For one scenario, we employ a Braess' Paradox, and explore the phenomenon during the game-play. We have done the case-control and before-after comparisons. The statistical results show that, students who played the game improve their understanding of the Braess' Paradox more than those who did not play. Among game players, younger students benefit more in their learning; while those who are not comfortable with exploring a phenomenon on their own think this game not as effective as those who prefer hands-on learning experiences.

• Evaluating Impacts of the U.S. Domestic Scan Program’s Technology Transfer Model
  Abstract: The U.S. Domestic Scan program creates opportunities for face-to-face information sharing and knowledge building among transportation agency professionals on selected timely topics. Its goals are broad information dissemination and accelerated implementation of new transportation technologies and best practices. A companion to this program, described in this paper, was a study to formally assess how well the program was meeting these goals. The study employed different collection instruments, including online surveys, telephone interviews, and webinars, to learn the extent of follow-up activities for six early scans conducted through the U.S. Domestic Scan program. Investigators reached out to a range of stakeholders: scan participants, the project oversight panel, and, notably, nonparticipants--those individuals who learned about the scan secondhand through formal or informal channels. Results confirmed that the scans were achieving their core missions: Participants were making critical professional connections, sharing scan findings across a wide network of audiences, and making use of the findings at their home agencies. Nonparticipants were also found to use findings to support their own implementation efforts and to share the information with others, further propagating the ripple effect of information dissemination. Additional insights from the scan participants and oversight panel inform recommendations and best practices for technology transfer and accelerated implementation for any research program.

• An Application of SHRP2's Transportation for Communities Advancing Projects through Partnerships (TCAPP): A Case Study in Colorado Springs
  Abstract: In 2011, the MPO for the Colorado Springs region volunteered to test an innovative web-based approach to planning called Transportation for Communities Advancing Projects through Partnerships (TCAPP). This tool was developed and launched by Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP2) funding. The process of learning, testing, planning and assessing the TCAPP for long range planning allowed PPACG staff to gain insights and recommendations on advancing TCAPP. PPACG also integrated a set of land use, conservation, and decision support tools with the TCAPP. Since the SHRP2’s TCAPP is transferable to other MPOs and regions, the information gathered in this report can extend the reach of this important web-based tool.

• Measuring the Impact of Technology Transfer Activity on Transportation Agencies
  Abstract: The Kirkpatrick training assessment model is the prime method of assessing the impact of training events. This method was primarily developed for execution in a corporate environment and researchers may encounter difficulty employing it to assess the impact of non-compulsory technology transfer events. Complications of applying the Kirkpatrick method in these types of events can result from the following for factors: 1) the inability to predict likely behavior changes in participants, 2) the widely varying and sometimes unknown backgrounds of participants, 3) the lack of a control group for learning assessment tests 4) unavailability of participants to be observed for behavior changes. This paper discusses a number of techniques that have been developed and have undergone field trials to supplement the Kirkpatrick assessment method and overcome these complications for non-compulsory technology transfer events. The techniques include; using personal information of participants to provide context in the analysis phase, the use of a crossover design in developing learning assessments; and the use of ethnographic research and data analysis techniques to provide a framework for Level Three and Level Four Kirkpatrick assessments.

• What Engineers Want: Identifying Transportation Professionals as an Audience for Research
  Abstract: With billions of dollars dedicated to transportation research, university faculty and graduate students across the nation are discovering solutions and products that will make our infrastructure safer and more efficient. Little research exists, however, regarding the best way to communicate these answers and advances in the state of the practice to transportation professionals in the field. Further, the available research does not treat transportation engineers as information consumers. The nation's infrastructure depends on an effective way to place vital findings into the hands of the users. This project included a preliminary literature review as well as an unprecedented survey of 175 transportation professionals. The survey explored the respondents' preferences for receiving transportation engineering research, ranking current methods such as hard and electronic copies, live transmissions, national transportation resource libraries, and social media networks. Results revealed that among professionals surveyed, the technical brief-typically a two-page summary was rated the most desired and effective research product. Conversely, respondents reported the technical brief was only the fifth most common way of receiving information. Other findings suggested that greater attention should be paid to search engines as access points for research results and succinct supplementary materials, such as PowerPoint presentations. Findings also suggested that funding agencies could easily adjust reporting requirements for transportation research to promote the creation of more effective informational products for working professionals. Future studies should continue to acknowledge transportation professionals as consumers to ensure this vital information can be transmitted into practice.

• Exploratory Model of Student Performance in a Geographic Information System Laboratory for Transportation Engineering Undergraduates
  Abstract:

  The focus of this paper is to identify and validate an exploratory model that links students’ performance in a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) laboratory based learning system to major predictors based on students’ perceptions and beliefs. The instructional process in the laboratory was similar to a short-term training course, therefore, first, academic self-efficacy and its determinants, perceived motivation and perceived task complexity, were examined as significant predictors of students’ performance outcomes. Second, the interest was to determine if the major change in the instructional process during the last two semesters of the laboratory, the link of the laboratory topic to the semester long highway design project, produced significant difference in students’ self-efficacy. The results indicate that both perceived motivation and perceived complexity are significant predictors for students’ academic self-efficacy. Higher self-efficacy produced the desired outcomes as a result of better alignment of the complexity of the laboratory activity with the level of expectations of students possibly based on their experiences in other similar courses. Higher self-efficacy typically results in higher chances that students will successfully engage in similar future activities. This outcome is of high interest as the GIS laboratory was set as a distributed learning activity implemented as stand-alone laboratories in several courses throughout the civil engineering curricula. The model confirmed that the instructional design interventions over the semester increased students’ motivation. Structural equation modeling approach was adopted in this study. The data used for the analyses were obtained from a longitudinal study of student performance in a GIS laboratory over four semesters.
