Enhancing Diversity in the Undergraduate Mechanical Engineering Population through Curriculum Change

A series of booklets providing ‘Real Life Examples’ in the form of lessons plans is being produced as part of this NSF project (#0431756). The first three in the series: ‘Real Life Examples in Mechanics of Solids’ (40 pages); ‘Real Life Examples in Dynamics’ (54 pages); ‘Real Life Examples in Thermodynamics’ (54 pages) and ‘Real Life Examples in Fluids’ (54 pages) are available on this website. See sample lesson plans (no.8 of 12 from Mechanics of Solids, no.7 of 12 from Dynamics, no.2 of 12 from Fluids or no.4 of 11 from Thermodynamics).

Single copies of these booklets are $14 including packing and postage (US only)

Multiple copies can be purchased at a discount:

10 copies for $120 including packing and postage

50 copies for $400 including packing and postage
