Doug explained howhe modified his syllabus to clarify expectations for specific aspects of his course: I went from one line to a whole page, very, very clearly spelling out for the different aspects of the courses. And these courses that I teach have laboratory work, they have lectures, they have homework, they have exams, they have everything. I carefully spelled out what the expectations were

Feedback fromstudents showed that the simulations can help visualize and understand mechanical systemsdynamic behavior.However some of the approaches mentioned above can sometimes be difficult to implement.Some of the reasons for that could be software availability, difficulties integrating software andweb tools into an already long syllabus, class size and lack of laboratory time for the discipline.For these cases, a

However, thetraditional method for teaching science and mathematics has been rote memorization offacts quantified by student achievement based on multiple choice or fill-in-the blanktests. Science and mathematics were not integrated but, rather have been taught asseparate subjects. Current research suggests that science and mathematics be taughttogether to students prior to college1. An effective strategy for the integration of scienceand mathematics is the incorporation into the instructional strategies of topics thatdirectly apply both disciplines, such as engineering and technology topics. Althoughstudents are taught about mathematics and science, most students are relativelyuninformed about technology and

DBR differs from laboratory experimental research in that DBR is situated inreal-world contexts where confounding factors are difficult to control, whereas laboratoryexperiments aim to control for such factors6.
