A. S.M.A.R.T. (Self-paced, Mechanics, Algorithmic, Review, Tutorial)

    • Developed by George Staab and Brooks Breeden of The Ohio State University, S.M.A.R.T. brings engineering mechanics to life through the development of free-body and kinetic diagrams and the use of animation. The tutorial also offers algorithmically generated quizzes that differ from many algorithmic quiz banks by offering clearer graphics, suggested solutions, and by actively engaging students in the learning process rather than offering only rote problem solving. S.M.A.R.T. can also be used as a classroom presentation tool and is ideal for online courses.
