of engineering students has been a known problem and still affectsinstitutions today. Due to the significance of this problem, there have been many studies onengineering students’ knowledge retention and its causes [4], [8],[11], [14], [19]. More recently,links have been drawn between engineering student retention and a feeling of community with afocus on problems relevant to the students' current engineering practice [20]. It has been said, that for any science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) class,teaching methods aimed at improving knowledge retention should expose students to real-worldproblems that highlight potential career opportunities [5]. In most statics classes, the problemsare heavily focused on concepts that are
