elements of the course that have fosteredhigher levels of intellectual development and thereby critical thinking skills.Felder and Brent6 suggest that there are five teaching conditions that correlate with students tak-ing a deep approach to learning. The first condition, “Student-perceived relevance of the subjectmatter” is obtained by the industrial involvement and real-world problem solving. Since thiscourse was co-developed by industry, it has received the “industry stamp of approval” whichgives the students incentive and enthusiasm to learn the course material. The second condition,“Clear expectations, practice, and feedback” is obtained in the laboratory exercises (labs). Thecritical thinking process is modeled by the professor in the early

Current solid mechanics education, however,mainly focuses on theoretical analysis with limited experimental demonstration. In mostengineering programs, the theoretical analysis is delivered to students via a series of courses, suchas Statics, Dynamics, Materials of Mechanics. The experimental demonstrations are only includedin one laboratory course related Materials

The authors of this paper also surveyed STEM students majoring in engineering,chemistry, mathematics, physics, computer science, which indicated that the students recognizedthe effectiveness of collaborative learning, and believed that their understanding can be betterimproved and it was necessary to provide support to facilitate their collaborative learning. Recognizing the importance and effectiveness of collaborative learning, more and moreSTEM faculty or instructors have utilized this learning mechanism in their teaching practice.
