surprising that the retention rate of undergraduateengineering programs can be adversely affected. As a result, a Statics instructor may facesubstantial pressure (whether real or perceived) to minimize the attrition rate yet still preparestudents for subsequent higher-level engineering coursework.Various pedagogical approaches to teaching mechanics have been attempted with the intent ofimproving student success. Some approaches include supplemental instruction [2], interactivetutoring [3], recitations [4], virtual laboratories [5], online courseware [6], and gaming [7]. It isimportant to concede that even the most well-intentioned and passionate instructors may nothave access to the resources to implement these unique approaches. Thus, traditional

A second recommendation outlines the need for students to makeconnections between theory and practice and to develop the thinking skills required forengineering practice. This requires an inductive, as opposed to a deductive, approach to teachingand learning.The integration of professional identity, knowledge and skills requires that students have anopportunity to experience engineering practice, through so-called approximations to practice.Often this means exposing students to laboratory or design project teaching methods (they aredifferent).

However, it has been suggested thatvisual simulations alone may not be fully supportive for some students learning these concepts(Chi, 2008). In addition, most of the currently available simulations focus on the sense of sightand hearing, and very little on the sense of touch, which is one of the most common ways forpeople to interact with physical objects (Thurfjell, McLaughlin, Mattsson & Lammertse, 2002;Han & Black, 2011).

. Faculty members often expose students to standards in laboratory exercisesthroughout their college careers. These subtle opportunities are documented in the paper.ABET criterion and outcomes used to evaluate engineering and engineering technologyprograms now emphasize the use of standards, especially in the design process. This is a newchallenge for the engineering educator. Given that new engineering educators teach theirstudents about standards, it is necessary to become familiar with available information that mayhelp students as well as typical best practices for academic libraries. Acquiring access tostandards is the first step in using standards. The next step is to acquire skill and learn how tocritically read and apply them.The literature
