educational experience we hope toprovide?”. This decision was driven principally by equivalency concerns, since the course wasto be listed in the student’s transcript as if the course were taken at USMA. Thus, it was decidedthat the content and workload must be similar to that of the students at the home institution. Thelaboratory component posed a problem, but it was judged that the lab load was relatively light,with only 4 laboratory periods (one of which was principally a demonstration), and could thus bewaived. Further, the principle laboratory experience for the student within the major wouldcome in the follow-on semesters.The second driving decision was “How will we evaluate the student’s work?”. This was aparticular problem at USMA, since the

Some teams did, but in the end, most of the discussions were ad-hoc (e.g. discussion with people around you). • The result of the first vote was always hidden from students before they entered into discussion. There did not seem to be a lack of interest in discussing the topic further without seeing the original results and it avoided students voting for the most popular answer when asked the second time. • The correct answer was not indicated on the slide after

duringclass and many steel design courses do not require a laboratory component. The following paperwill describe how the author uses trash bags with bolt holes to describe the concepts of yieldingand fracture, while also introducing a little bit of comedy into the classroom. Answers to themost common student questions are also provided.MotivationFor the first two or three times the author taught an introductory steel design course, he noticedthat many students were not able to clearly describe yielding in materials. From previous coursesin mechanics of materials and structural analysis, the students recognized that yielding, alongwith fracture, were both limit states to be checked, but they struggled to differentiate between thetwo failure modes and

All the testingtime for the students was outside the class time. To ensure that the students get the most of out oftheir hands-on experience, the experimental protocol was vetted thoroughly. The civil engineeringtechnician also assisted the students in testing. For each of the materials, the objectives was thefollowing:1) Determine whether the material is linear viscoelastic?2) Determine if time-temperature superposition is applicable?3) Develop a rheological model, and4) Explain impact of the above results in practical applications.The scope and depth of testing was discussed with

The issue with the former arises since students viewprescriptive, code-based design as an exercise of plugging values into equations disregarding thatthese analysis/design approaches are based on actual physical phenomena – flexure is foundedon strain compatibility and shear on the results of countless experimental tests. On the otherhand, visualizing structures is typically a problem for students who have not been exposed to thedesign and construction of reinforced concrete members via laboratory, work-site, or design-office experience. They have no 3-D reference to help them make sense of the many two-dimensional (2-D) figures shown in textbooks, course notes, and the concrete building code.The question
