topic was question D4, in which the students’ appeared to understand theimportance of effective communication on the job site. There was also improvement in allobjective questions, with three questions scoring a 100% in the late semester showing ofthe video. This is likely due to the fact that these topics are covered extensively throughoutthe semester. The question that scored the lowest was question D9, which was thedefinition of the USCS acronym. The lower than expected result was due to strict gradingadopted by the professor. All four words had to be identified, spelled correctly, and in thecorrect tense. If a student defined the first “S” as Soils, then the answer was incorrect as thefirst “S” is not plural (i.e. Soil). After the

prerequisite for ENER 340. ENER 240 covers single-variable calculus and particle dynamics. For example, ENER 240 covers (i) trajectory ofa particle moving in air under gravitational force and (ii) friction force. ENER 240 shouldprovide the students with an opportunity to review applied mechanics course(s) they hadtaken in their two-year diploma programs. Both ENER 240 and 340 are designed with theidea that polytechnic students would be able to learn mathematics better if they are alsolearning simultaneously their applications.ENER 340 is delivered in 6 weeks during the Summer term, and each week has 6 hoursof lectures and 6 hours of tutorials. The course load per week (pacing) is twice as that inregular Fall (September-December) or Winter (January
