Teaching engineering online is more problematic because of the technical nature of the field. This pilot study used qualitative research to evaluate student satisfaction with an eight-week accelerated statics class which used intensive lecture and sample problem videos and was taught during a summer session. Overall, students found the videos to be crucial to the online learning experience. Students also felt these videos would be helpful even if the course were completed in a traditional face-to face class. The final exam scores from a previous semester statics class taught by the primary researcher face-to-face was compared with a t test. There were no significant differences between students in the online course and in the face-to-face classroom. The next semester the videos were used in a control and experimental group model in two face-to-face classrooms. Overall, students in the experimental group performed better than those in the control group but the differences were not statistically significant. These findings indicate online learning can be a viable option in the teaching of undergraduate engineering statics.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Online Engineering Education}, author={B. W.
