hours in mechanics ofmaterial course are allocated to a traditional in-class lecture with limited numbers of laboratoryexperiment. Due to the limitation of budget, space, and time, even laboratory experiments areoften limited to a simple testing, such as tension or torsion tests conducted on samples withsimple shapes.With the advancement of computation technology, instructors of engineering courses canimplement low-cost and quick hands-on experience by using a numerical simulation methodsuch as Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Today, many commercial FEA software are availableand used in the education of mechanics of material course3,4. In mechanics of material course,instructors can also utilize FEA built in the in Computer-Aided Design software

iteration.This training is necessary because video is a different medium than typically used in engineeringcommunication (i.e. technical reports or diagrams) and the medium is temporally linear with lessability to provide supplementary information. Thus the choice of content and how it is presentedare key to clear communication. Furthermore multimodal communication is becoming moreimportant in the engineering workforce as customers and others increasingly use videos to accessneeded information.Video projects were supported by two faculty.
