However, as pointed out in recentpublications, 1, 2 the topics, methods and audience of this enterprise requires ongoing assessmentand revision to ensure relevance, efficacy and accessibility for local and global consumers. Inkeeping with this concept, the authors believe that the fundamental discipline of classicalmechanics with respect to the current

TheCMML is a fully networked facility with a bank of high-speed workstations and PCs. Thelaboratory at Richmond Field Station consists of a water basin 68m long, 2.6m wide and 2mdeep. Physical models are tested in the basin in simulated wave environment of the properscales. The facility has both low-speed and high-speed tow carriages, a computer-controlledwavemaker, and a hydraulic oscillator. Instrumentation capabilities include some of the latesttechniques, such as systems for laser fluorescence imagery and digital-particle image

interactiveexercises described below.Since Statics is a subject that requires solving problems as well as understanding concepts, largertasks have been carefully dissected and addressed as individual procedural steps. To helpstudents learn such procedures, the procedure is first explained in straight text, often with aworked-out example. Often, the application of the procedure is demonstrated with a“Walkthrough”: an animation combining voice and graphics that walks the student through anexample of the procedure. Students themselves engage in problem solving procedures first informative assessment “Learn By Doing” exercises and later in summative self-assessment “Did IGet This?” exercises.

In contrast,virtual models employ computer-based animations and simulations, augmented reality tools, andvirtual reality tools [7], [8], [9], [10], [11].Sometimes both tangible models and virtual models are used in tandem [3]. They describe thisapproach as using “virtual and physical manipulatives” (VPM). Students “touch and play withreal-world PMs [physical manipulatives] in their hands but also students can see how thecorresponding VMs [virtual manipulatives] (i.e., computer graphics) simultaneously change inreal time” [3].We posit that augmented reality (AR) provides another kind of middle ground between virtualmanipulatives and

Second, we demonstrate the application of theprocedure with a “Walkthrough”: an animation combining voice and graphics that walks thestudent through an example of the procedure. Such an approach is viewed as particularlyeffective, since it engages both aural (hearing) and visual pathways, diminishing the mentalload on each. This is particularly the case when we want the student to make appropriateconnections between words and evolving graphics.Students themselves engage in problem solving procedures first in formative assessment “LearnBy Doing” (LBD) exercises and later in summative assessment “Did I Get This?” (DIGT)exercises.
