Using Working Model Simulations in a First Statics Course Shari J. Klotzkin (Cincinnati, Ohio) Howard S. Kimmel (NJIT, Newark, NJ)IntroductionIntegration of computer activities into the engineering classroom enables students to gain hand-on activelearning experiences without the expense of laboratory experiments. In addition, they can gain valuableexperience with exercises that are closer to practical real-world problems than those that can be solvedwith pencil, calculator and paper. These kinds of problems enhance the students’ understandingcomplement the textbook problems because students would focus on analysis and interpretation of theresults. Students feel

Overthe past several years the authors have been developing methods that effectively represent thedesign process. This work discusses how four different representations were implemented in thefirst semester of a one year capstone design course to allow student teams to self-manage aproject in the second semester. The four representations are: 1) A functional abstraction that
