Computer aided interactive learning package for engineering education

Abstract

This paper introduces an interactive learning package which was developed for electrical engineering courses at the University of Wollongong, Australia. Computer assisted learning methods are increasingly used by educational institutions to support their conventional teaching methods. With the development of new information retrieval technologies and advancement in multimedia development tools these learning methods have become very effective. The application of the authorware in conjunction with on-line documentation and help files and other educational software is demonstrated for supporting laboratory and tutorial classes.
