| Abstract | We initiated an NSF-sponsored workshop of Faculty and a few representatives from industry to investigate methods to increase student expectations and performance in the fundamentals of undergraduate fluid mechanics education. We originally planned to build a pool of fluid mechanics exam problems and a consortium to provide feedback on evaluation of these problems. We examined ways to initiate, maintain, and assess this process consistent with ABET. We report here our deliberations and findings from the workshop and subsequent feedback and effort. The participants, drawn primarily from the active research community in fluid dynamics, evolved a consensus “path forward” in which shared instructional resources were to be the primary outcome of an organized, new collaboration among university and industrial colleagues. The present communication details the issues considered by the participants and it presents the suggestions to enhance instruction in basic fluid mechanics. |
