activities are essentially nolonger possible. Mechanical Engineering Design (i.e., Machine Design) at California StateUniversity Chico normally facilitates a semester-long design and fabrication project to givestudents a real-world engineering experience. As an alternative, this paper considers theeffectiveness and benefit of focusing on the documentation and presentation of engineeringanalysis and design work rather than hands-on projects. In a series of activity assignments,students are required to compose short technical reports which document their engineeringanalysis in professional form. Each subsequent assignment had an increased level of analysiscomplexity and documentation which related to the course material. A mid-semester survey
