A project has been undertaken to establish the effectiveness of a student-centred learning approachto teaching students applications of Critical State Soil Mechanics taught more transmissively inlectures, and to determine whether such an approach significantly enhances learning of the theoryitself. The project was undertaken as part of the new Postgraduate Certificate in AcademicPractice at Nottingham University. A teach-yourself handout has been created, whereby students`teach themselves' applications of the fundamentals, and it is found that by this approach, the studentsappear to learn better both the theory and the applications, developing high-level cognitive ability
