Students valued skills/abilities mapped to the Entrepreneurially Minded Learning(EML) Framework.To increase participation in ICPs, higher education institutions may consider organizing ICPswith a limited time commitment and targeting students at their institutions early in theireducation when they typically have more time available. For example, low-stake ICPs could be apart of students’ first-year engineering experience. This intervention can also introduce studentsto engineering skills across the whole spectrum of the EML Framework early in their

Interestingly, this state of affairs has changed little in the more than 40 years since the publication of the first editions of Meriam 1952, Shames in 1959, and Beer and Johnston in 1962 changed the way engineering mechanics was taught. In this paper, we present a formal procedure that we are using in the statics and dynamics texts we are writing. The procedure we are using is not new in that it derives from the approach used in more advanced mechanics courses in which the equations needed to solve problems derive from three areas or places

Bythe end of the class the students have developed subroutines for numerous mathematicalfunctions that they could apply to other problems that require programming.Course GoalsThe instructors of the redesigned course had three primary goals in mind with the new course: • To increase retention of the course material. • To integrate the material with the rest of the civil engineering curriculum. • To improve the overall “usefulness” of the course.The instructors believe that the new format will improve student comprehension and retention ofthe material.
