Grades are based on a weighted averageof two statics exams (40%), one dynamics exam (26%), six quizzes (18%), and two projects(16%). Students must earn a minimum grade of C in the course and at least a 70% exam average tomove on to follow-up courses that require Engineering Mechanics as a prerequisite. Over the pastfour years, the overall passing rate for this course is 72%. The average passing rate was 70%,78%, 70%, and 68%, respectively, from 2017 to 2020.For the fall semester of 2020, the enrollment in the two sections of the course were 45 and 33.

The feedback provided throughonline corrections also enabled more clarity for students as a well-developed, detailed responsetextbox could include a complete demonstration of a challenging algebraic manipulation requiredto solve for an embedded variable within an equation.

This hindsight led to the development of a questionnaire that could be used in thefuture.1.IntroductionWhetton [1] rightly states that most important professing of a professor, involves histhoughtful choice of reading materials, assignments, activities and most of all learningobjectives. This is even more pronounced when the instructor has to choose few experimentsand a project from a wide variety of mechanical engineering applications. The choice has tobe further developed to meet the learning outcomes called the student outcomes defined byABET [2]. Outcomes are descriptions of the end product of

Theengineering-as-lifestyle perspective is differently shaded here, when compared to the unalloyedversions from Max and Jake, but our interpretation is that it is the same basic belief about theleading value of engineering—that it provides for a high salary and a comfortable lifestyle.
