mechanics education as well as to identify its potentiallimitations.IntroductionEffective engineering education relies heavily on the capability of instructors to elicit connectionsbetween external representations of physical phenomena and the underlying laws of physics thatexplain them. For instance, teaching structural mechanics courses which are foundationalcomponents of civil, mechanical, aerospace, marine, naval, and offshore engineering sub-disciplines, relies on the ability to demonstrate the physical configuration of a structure (e.g.,geometry, connections, supports, loads, etc.), as well as its deformation behavior under externalloads. These courses are traditionally delivered by a primary lecture component usuallycomplemented by

For example, one project leader becamefamiliar with a particular student who was interested in aerospace engineering. Throughparticipation in the various MSTI activities, this student was able to make the connectionbetween aerospace engineering and transportation. Another leader reported that many of theparticipants really did not know what they wanted to do prior to MSTI but the various activitieshad helped them develop a clear understanding of civil engineering profession and transportationopportunities.ConclusionOverall, MSTI met its objectives.
