Thinking Like an An Active Learning Approach helps you develop the skills new engineering students need to prepare for upper-level courses. Sections on surviving engineering, time management, goal setting, and study skills are integrated throughout to assist on topics where students often need them. It helps you move beyond “plug-and-chug” and memorizing problem-solving methods, encouraging you instead to ask if your approaches and answers make sense in the physical world. An emphasis on reading and practice helps you to arrive prepared for class. The 6th Edition utilizes MATLAB® 2024 throughout, incorporates a new problem-solving framework, discusses AI in ethical engineering, and much more.
