AB  -          Work in Progress: Challenges to Developing Online Homework for                        Upper-Level Engineering Courses        Although online homework is frequently used for larger freshman-level math and sciencecourses, the presence of commercial online homework in sophomore-level and higherengineering courses is virtually nonexistent. From the perspective of a company that producesonline homework, the effectiveness of and need for upper-level, online engineering homeworkare not the obstacles to creating such a product. Rather, the cost of developing effective onlinehomework is hard to justify given the smaller market size of these disciplines.        The experiences and outcomes of creating commercial online homework for theintroductory chemical engineering course, Material and Energy Balances, will be discussed as acase study. In addition to analyzing this product from a profitability standpoint, student andinstructor survey data will be presented, indicating the reactions to using online homework in acourse that traditionally has not had this resource.        Finally, a collaborative solution to bringing quality online homework to smaller-marketdisciplines, such as thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, will be proposed. This approachdrastically reduces the up front development cost of a product and allows student access to aneffective product that would otherwise not be created.
