such assenior design. At the University of Toronto, Rottmann and Reeve [50] have developed a three-hour ethics workshop that introduces students to five different ethical frameworks and fourdifferent equity concepts. In an ongoing effort, Riley et al. [49] are studying the lessons learnedfrom social movements to bring about equity-oriented changes in engineering education andhave collected teaching resources at engineersshowup.com. The Partnership for Equity (P4E)project has sought to incorporate diversity, equity, and inclusion lessons in requiredundergraduate engineering and computer science courses on four different campuses bycollaborating with engineering and computer science faculty [13]. Many of the P4E activitieshave primarily focused

teaching effectiveness is inherently problematic for a number of reasons, includinginability to disaggregate increases and decreases in performance in different areas, year-to-yearvariation in what the students enter with, difficulty insuring exams test the same thing and at thesame level each year, and possible instructor bias that leads to grade inflation. The absence ofstandards at the university level is unfortunate, as they have substantially enhanced formativeassessment and descriptive feedback in K-6 education [1].Since the present study was not (at the outset) intended as a formal educational research project,many of the methods used by educational researchers to document teaching effectiveness, suchas tracking individual student

Some of the errors identified suggest misconceptions; a future research project will bedesigned to help identify why some misconceptions may exist.INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUNDEngineering mechanics provides foundational concepts that students apply in advancedengineering courses. For example, structural analysis requires a strong knowledge of staticequilibrium. Confidence calculating flexural stress and strain through the depth of a cross-sectionis critical when learning structural steel and reinforced concrete design. Ideally, prerequisiteengineering mechanics concepts are mastered and retained as

Strong completed her doctorate in aerospace engineering at Georgia Tech in spring, 2014. While a doctoral student, Strong was a National Science Foundation graduate research fellow and a member of the Cognitive Engineering Center. The goal of her doctorate research was to improve students’ abilities to think more broadly about complex systems design and to take into account stakeholder-related considerations within their design projects. Prior to attending Georgia Tech, Strong received a bachelor’s degree in

semester was another especially challenging one for our students. Providingmultiple low-stakes assessments, team projects, and in-person lab experiences helped ease thetension: “I enjoy working with people in groups for low stakes assignments. It helps me learnwithout pressure”. Our survey results indicated that almost 40% of our students had mentalhealth issues, 17% had medical issues, and another 11% had financial stress to cope with whiletaking challenging courses. Team activities, hands-on experiences, and multiple assessments ofthe key concepts are all proven methods that help with comprehension and retention, whilereducing the pressure of high-stakes exams. As one student noted:“Before exams, we saw the same information multiple times in
