Six apps, Bending,Deflection, Stress, Torsion, Axial, and Pressure Vessels, will provide students the opportunity toset up their own practice problems and get instant feedback on the solutions. These apps allowstudents to explore and master the concepts covered in the course by giving them ampleopportunity to practice outside the classroom.

Courses which require more that eight to ten chunks should be realigned to fit the eight-ten chunk model, or reassign remaining chunks to a next sequence course. Courses of more thaneight chunks could roll into a longer course time-period but this would require a rethinking ofcredit hour assignments and curriculum wide modifications. Concept chunks would further bebroken down into lessons and with one evaluation per chunk. If concept chunk scaffolding is thecourse goal, it could require that chunks be mastered in sequence (see Figure 1). If concept

Those who pass the exam earn the degree of“Licenciado en Ciencias de la Ingeniería”. This degree does not license them for professionalwork, but allows them to enter directly to graduate programs (Master and Doctor).
