Very interesting lecture
Hoping for the full course. I know its been a while but its never too late. I would really enjoy and appreciate this and any other new courses on engineering.

Good pilot!
This is a good pilot! Professor explained well in layman terms this engineering subject and appreciate the style and delivery. I hope Wondrium would do a full course.

Keeping us informed...
It would be appreciated, and helpful, when viewing a "Pilot" if Wondrium/Great Courses clearly indicated on the episode page the status of the Pilot. Eg, let us know if a full course version is under consideration or is in production; estimated release date or queries for feedback and interest in a full course. This episode is copyrighted 2020…. It is mid-2023… Is the “Pilot” simply available so that you have content to offer? (If so… you are such a tease.) Or as a subscriber, is it important that I review and declare an interest in a Pilot before you will commit to funding a full series? When viewing “Pilots” how do subscribers declare their preferences for priorities to assist you in allocating budgets for content development? Let me know if I can be of service in this matter, or if my input has no impact. Thank you.

It is time to make it
I have been waiting for this course for so long. Can't you guys make it a full complete course? The lecturer is great the topic is the one that missing from library.

It seems substantial and well done
The more technical topics like this the better. I love the idea of "Engineering for Everyone" as a series.

Can't Wait for the Series
I look forward to the complete series. This is an area which is lacking in much of our population. A basic understanding of engineering will benefit everyone, and motivate some to seek a deeper understanding.

Overview
01: Engineering School for Everyone: Statics
Join Professor Haden to deconstruct a simple system—the pulley—and through this project, gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for the machines and structures in your everyday world. As you dive into simple machines, you’ll see how learning the foundations of mechanical engineering—such as the laws of physics and conservation of momentum—can lead you to accomplish more complex tasks and systems. With this lecture, you’re taking the first step toward greater capabilities in the analysis of mechanics.
