National agencies have called for more widespread adoption of best practices in engineering education. To facilitate this sharing of practices a web-based system framework used by transportation engineering educators to share curricular materials and methods was developed. A research-based, action-oriented approach was taken where iteration occurred between the usability and adoptability of the system and the material-sharing and decision-making process of its content providers. The results of this study suggest that managing the size and content of the materials provided in the repository and establishing an effective and efficient means to access the material are of critical importance to the long-term success and sustainability of the system.
