Few universities offer undergraduate degrees in thediscipline of Mechanics.[2] In introductory Statics and Dynamics, bodies of interest are often assumed rigid. In suchcases, only pillars (1) and (2) are applicable, although pillar (3) is implicitly applied if one viewsrigidity as a limiting case of constitutive behavior.[3] Physics educators have long perceived the tendency for students to follow their own intuition,rather than the actual dictates of the mechanics.

Several researchers have investigated how students’ preconceptions interfere with theirability to learn mechanics. Two early works are Clement [14] and McDermott [15]. As this research developed, theForce Concept Inventory (FCI) emerged as a tool to measure students’ understandings or misunderstandings of howforces act on bodies (see Hestenes, et. al., [16]).

educational goal may be achieved by using different methodsand means.The teachers of engineering graphics today tend to use, if not overuse, CAD/CAM software inthe educational process. Sometimes it is assumed that computer graphics software is the primarymeans that will enhance a student’s spatial visualization ability. On the contrary, recent research[8] provides data to prove that the influence of computer graphics on the enhancement of spatialability is not so direct and straightforward. Electronically created tutorials on web pages,instructional movies and CD interactive media are nowadays produced to the advantage ofengineering graphics students.

Finally, faculty members’ reflect on theirexperience working as part of a multidisciplinary team and offer recommendations forimplementation.BackgroundThe field of engineering demands collaboration to solve today’s complex problems. Gone are thedays of working alone in a lab. Today’s engineer needs to be able to function as a productiveteam member, and to accomplish this objective, the engineer needs to be a competentcommunicator. As a result, much of the focus of communication instruction within theengineering disciplines emphasizes effective informal communication within teams. In fact, agreater focus has been placed on “teaming” in the engineering education literature.Engineering teaming research, in general, encompasses the following
