He states that “the greater the level ofintegration desired, the higher the level of collaboration required.”4 The course being discussedin this paper is team taught by professors from three separate disciplines - electrical, computer,and mechanical engineering. The changes to the course requirements are designed to increasethe level of integration. This paper will discuss results supporting Davis’ proposal that greaterlevels of integration achieve higher levels of interdisciplinary interaction. Furthermore, thepaper will test the hypothesis that a change to the

used these surveys to measure how the demonstrations affected the students’application of concepts beyond identification of the concepts. Another key aspect of this work isthat we focused our efforts on students in engineering majors (such as industrial, chemical,biological, agricultural, petroleum, nuclear, and so on) who do not have as much exposure tomechanical systems as mechanical engineering majors. The key difference between such majorsand mechanical engineering majors is that for many of the students, there are no follow-onclasses beyond the freshman physics mechanics course, so many of them take this statics classseveral semesters later.Our technique was implemented in several class sections with approximately 400 total students.In
