In addition, the instructor and students discuss how using non-calibrated instruments can lead to incorrect measurements, which in turn can have a significant impact on engineering projects, such as monitoring of engineering structures with implications to the community and safety.Discussion and ConclusionsIncreasing student motivation and confidence to participate in class activities is important formathematics and statistics classes that are aimed to build strong knowledge foundations inengineering students. Average grades from previous years indicates an average 75% to 78%,which reflects that there is room for improvement. For instance, in 2019 the number of numericalmath problems in math 140
