. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024 Link Element Design for a Landing Gear Mechanism in a Statics and Mechanics of Materials CourseAbstractIn this work, we describe a project involving a link element design for a landing gear mechanismas part of our Statics and Mechanics of Materials I course. During this project, students are askedto design a safe and lightweight linkage that will allow the landing gear to safely and slowlyretract from a vertical position to a nearly horizontal one without breaking or stretching more than10% of its original length. This project is introduced at the halfway point of the 10-week term, atwhich point students are familiar with the 2D equilibrium of rigid bodies and the concepts

strong source ofmotivation to learn by increasing the students’ understanding of the relevance each topic has torealistic design problems, and thus to becoming better engineers. Educational benefits of thesecase study projects include: 1. The students immediately see how the information they learn applies to tasks they might be asked to perform in the workplace. 2. Almost no practicing engineers work alone. Case study project work is conducted in teams. This means the students will have to learn to communicate their ideas effectively without neglecting human factors such as conflict, envy and ego. Such experience is both invaluable and conspicuously absent in the current chemical

As pedagogical methods continue to evolvetowards project-based and open-ended experiences, opportunities to engage students in theiterative revision process are becoming increasingly advantageous. Many professors rely ongrading systems focused primarily on evaluative criteria, resulting in scores which are used todetermine course letter grades. Students may accept the feedback offered in
