Abstract: Exploring the Efficiency of Teaching "STATICS" OnlineDevelopment of an online course in "Engineering Statics" is reported in this paper.In an attempt to explore the possibility of offering "Statics" as an on-line course it was offered as a hybrid course during the Fall 2012 semester at Kansas State university.The course was a combination of traditional class lectures and online lectures.Quizzes on the material taught during traditional class lectures and the online recorded lectures showed no major difference in students' performance.Students preferred online lectures due to their flexibility.Success of the hybrid course encouraged the author and the department to offer "Statics" as a completely web-based course in summer 2013.All of the course resources were designed and provided to address students' need for a good learning experience.Various parts of the online course, opportunities and challenges are discussed in this paper.Success of the course will be assessed during and after the completion of the course and will be reported in the final paper.
