The solutionto the second obstacle, however, lies in the further transformation of the structure of engineeringcourse and curricula models—an ongoing activity in most engineering schools.Self-Assessment SystemThis paper describes a Web-based system for learning how to construct shear and momentdiagrams. The system consists of three main steps, as shown in Figure 2. The system presents tothe learner a series of shear and moment diagram construction problems. The learner responds byinteractively constructing the diagrams; the system generates meaningful feedback, which isdisplayed to the learner

However, this understanding is not widespread amongst engineeringstudents, and the perception of neutrality can have perilous societal consequences.
