students to establishsuch a mental model using solid mechanics concepts is a reasonable approach, which may benefitstudents in their entire engineering career. As shown in Figure 6, fundamental concepts inmechanics can be completely separate in students’ mind before they have a firm understanding oftheir meaning. The M3E approach is expected to help students connect these abstract concepts anddevelop their mental model to represent a network of such complex concepts. A well-developedconcept map, externalization of the mental representation, will show the fundamentalunderstanding of these concepts. Once students have such capability, they can easily adapt it forother engineering applications. The effectiveness of the proposed M3E approach will be
