Deeper levels of learning can be gained as they work together and impact each other. • Analysis and Reflection: This is a key component and vital to connecting the service to the academic content, in order to really gain the most benefit. This extends from relating the academic content to the service, the implications of the social context of the work, all the way to seeing the role of engineering in society.The learning benefits are also discussed in the book by Lima. “The connection to the communitycan provide

Similarly,knowing how forces are represented visually in diagrams is a skill that successful engineeringstudents have. However, many college students have difficulty understanding how physics-basedprinciples are represented visually. As a result, the types of problems assigned in courses likestatics and thermodynamics that utilize these visual representations may be one reason theseclasses are perceived as difficult.
