In the fall 2021, many students returnedto face-to-face instruction. After the two face-to-face exams, nearly 60% of the class was failinga heat transfer class that is significantly higher than pre-pandemic semesters. The instructor offeredto meet one-on-one with each student and two-thirds of the class did meet with the instructor.

Fluid Mechanics is divided intofive modules: Hydrostatics, Internal Flow, Pump and System curves, a discipline specificmodule, and Reynolds Transport Theorem. In each of these modules, students are given threeonline quizzes on video lectures, three homework assignments, three online proficiency quizzes,and an exam. Figure 1 shows the student view of the Hydrostatics Module in Canvas.

.).At the same time, many courses have a list of student learning outcomes or course objectives,often presented in the syllabus. These are used for program assessment, for ensuring consistencyacross instructors and over time, and for informing students of the overall course goals.Frequently, however, there is not a direct connection between the learning outcomes and the“points” earned in the course. For example, partial credit relevant to one outcome might becombined with full credit on another, masking whether a student actually met all outcomes (orwhich ones were met). “Extra credit” points for participation can further cloud this. Likewise,high scores (for example) on a hands-on, laboratory portion can mask shortcomings in otheraspects such

a relatively recent innovation, as forced by COVID 19, online education guides the use ofnew technologies in developing alternative methodologies for student learning. While the learningprocess, at present, requires self-learning and the ability to deal with activities autonomously, thissits well with the stated need to introduce virtual learning strategies and skills into universityeducation.In this context, we sought to design a course that facilitates assimilation and aims for interactionbetween students and instructors that may deliver dynamic learning activities. Under this analysis,the AutoCad General Training elective course was offered to generate skills that may allow forunderstanding the importance of drawings. For example, the
