Mechanics CoursesAbstractStudents often find it tempting and expedient to rely on input from outside sources to completehomework problems which, unfortunately, bypasses the type of engagement required for reallearning. Current brain science informs us of the importance of the retrieval process and spacedrepetition. When students passively observe others solving problems, or merely re-copy lecturenotes and solutions, they are not engaging in the necessary retrieval process for their learning toenter long-term memory. And, when students do six to eight hours of homework just one night aweek, they know they are exerting a lot of effort, but may not realize their study practices don'tprovide the necessary spacing to cement new connections in their

Furthermore, with greater emphasis being placed on understanding the social,economic and environmental impacts of engineered solutions, another essential competency isthe cognitive flexibility to think about the whole system at different levels of fidelity and indifferent time scales [3, 4]. Undergraduate education must train students to not only solveengineering challenges that transcend disciplinary boundaries, but also communicate, transferknowledge, and collaborate across technical and non-technical boundaries.
