More specifically itusually refers to any instructional activity that engages the student in learning, perhaps ratherthan in being taught. There are two fundamental challenges to embedding active learning in aStatics classroom. The first is coming up with the format for an activity that is appropriate forthe class and learning objectives and the second is in identifying content that can be effectivelycast in this format throughout the course.In this work, Graphical Statics is suggested as an

In the classroom, the abundant access and ease of use of MicrosoftExcel make it an excellent instrument to perform engineering calculations. Integration of Excelinto thermodynamics courses requires finding a suitable method of finding properties on steamtables.

Rapid changes in the nature of work, education, technology, workforce demographics, and international competition have led to the National Science Board (NSB, Board) to conclude that our competiveness, security, and research enterprise require this critical, but often overlooked segment of our STEM-capable workforce.
