effort in recent years focused on implementing newtechniques to the teaching of engineering mechanics. This work has included combiningtraditional statics topics in a heavily design oriented backdrop (Russell 7, Condoor 8, Klosky etal. 9), focusing on application to real artifacts (Seif and Dollar 10), and combining statics conceptswith those from mechanics of solids and machine design (Chaphalkar 11). Recent effortsdocument successes with utilizing an inverted classroom (Papadopoulos et al.12) and otherinnovative pedagogies. The goal of improving educational outcomes via a highly interactiveclassroom has been shown to be successful in formats where lectures and laboratories arecombined and problem-based active learning techniques are

it wascompared to a traditional classroom course; at the end, it was determined that even though theonline course could be useful to help students understand fundamental concepts in Statics, itbecomes less effective than the face-to-face course when teaching students to solve a diversity ofpractical problems7. Kim et al.8 developed a hands-on mechanics laboratory, with online accessto some experimental setups. The laboratory was a co-requisite for ME students in the Staticscourse, but, it was optional for other majors. Such mechanics laboratory allowed students tounderstand Statics concepts better through instructor demonstrations and cooperative learninghands-on activities, group projects, and discussions; as a result, the failure and

In most cases,the primary candidates for reduction were the multi-disciplinary / cross-disciplinary courses andelective options. This created further segregation of the disciplines and disconnected majority ofthe student groups even when they are within the same organizational unit.Considering the fact

The course consisted of two hours of lecture andthree hours of laboratory time each week with content divided into three topic areas eachincorporating a multi-week lab project. The final weeks of the course were devoted to large-scalefinal projects where student teams monitored actual structures on the university campus.The course was assessed in comparison to two other courses offered concurrently: a graduatecourse in networking for ECPE/CS students and a mixed course in water resource engineeringfor civil engineering students.
