Teaching Strategy
• Lectures: given on topics as class progress, with especial consideration within the class to link the existing topic with students' existing knowledge and further with the general overview. • Review: review the content of each lecture and clarify any matters not understood. •Assignments: groups of students up to 3 are assigned to join in a team work; which includes solving problems in various structural members and submit reports (the work, which should be completed by week 14, involves look up of reference materials and websites). Tutorial: Students are invited to take a full part in discussion (each student raised a prepared question for class discussion)
Assessment Methods
As class/topics progress, exercises/homework are assigned. Short quizzes (20 minutes) in class are given; in addition, true/false, multiple choice item on the midterm and final exams are given
