I've taught at least one section of statics or mechanics of materials almost everysemester for the last 18 years, a combined total of over 60 sections of statics and mechanics ofmaterials.

seems to be a match between the needs of engineering education for the21st century and female preferences for learning when it comes to the importance of teamwork.Team or group work (the two are used interchangeably in this paper) is supposed to be apedagogy that women prefer, since it involves collaborative rather than competitive learning,interactional negotiations, a peer setting for confidence building and a safer environment forerror correction for those unsure of their skills. It also provides the opportunity to learn fromeach other’s strengths. Presumably, the emphasis on teamwork will thus make engineeringeducation more palatable for female students, and has been recommended as a strategy to makeengineering (and other math and science
