teaching experience ofengineering faculty. The core problem is seeing technology as a way to do more of the samerather than as an opportunity to do something much better. This paper attempts to paint a visionof what can be for engineering colleges that dare to use technology to reinvent teaching in waysthat research tells us work best for students and instructors.The Opportunity Page 23.1224.4Fundamentally the opportunity is using technology to help us recreate engineering rather thansimply doing more of the same to more people. This is not to say that technology itself is theanswer. In fact, infatuation with the bells and whistles of technology too
