Short Description

This study will investigate the impact of a system modeling (SM) instructional strategy on mechanical engineering students’ conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills. Specifically, the current study will explore the effect of SM on students conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills in a mechanical engineering course. This research study will utilize a qualitative method using students’ artifacts and focus group interview to collect data on students’ experiences and perceptions of SM approach. Open-ended questions and problem-solving survey will be employed in the study.
