Students often develop the ability to plug numbers into equations and get ananswer without understanding what the answer means, and they are not able to apply equationsto new or different scenarios2,3. Practicing engineers must be able to apply multiple fundamentalconcepts to various design problems, and conceptual understanding is the first step in developingthis ability2,4,5.

The main goals are to improve students’ awareness about the causes and effects ofstructural failures in engineering, and to help them develop skills on conducting failureinvestigations.To achieve this, the present research develops a computer-based learning system, in whichstudents learn on structural failures by performing in a simulated environment

Traditionally, engineering schools havedone a superb job of educating their students on the fundamental laws of naturegoverning their fields and on the application of these laws to engineeringproblems.
