Keywords: assessment, mechanical reasoning, mechanics of materials, undergraduate engineering educationIntroduction:As professional engineers, the concept of torsion is crucial. Across hosts of disciplines, whetherstudents specialize in mechanical, biomedical, civil, nuclear, or geological engineering, orengineering physics and mechanics, the concepts covered in theory-based or lab courses ontorsion are foundational to understanding how physical systems behave and how to adequatelydesign systems given torsional loads. For example, torque is experienced in transmission shaftsin

Qualitative and quantitativeanalyses focused on four students (two dyads) from a Mechanics of Materials lab course thatoffered a hands-on environment to observe, physically experience, and mathematically modeltorsional loads. Data was obtained from videos during a pre-lab assessment as well as acollaborative torsional testing lab activity. Within a grounded and embodied cognition framework, we applied ENA to students’collaborative, multimodal discourse about the mechanics of torsion. We hypothesized (H1) thatanalysis of students’ collaborative discourse will reveal frequent use of gesture alongside speechthat describes the underlying structures that give rise to functions and behaviors during torsion.We also hypothesized (H2

general population [1]. Theincidence of mental health conditions is linked with financial concerns, poor mentorship,discrimination, and lack of work life balance [1], [16].While it is generally believed that mental health is an aspect of wellbeing, research [17] suggeststhat both have separate causes and psychological mechanisms. Kinderman et al. [17] argued thatanxiety and depression are associated with negative life events, influenced by individuals’thinking, while low levels of subjective well-being are related to material deprivation and socialisolation, mediated by an adaptive coping style. Thus, making mental health problems andsubjective wellbeing the opposite ends of a single spectrum. However, in this study we do notadhere to any
