The engineering/technology field is changing ata staggering rate and in order for educators to keep pace, connections with industry areabsolutely necessary. Industry, also, is looking at ways to stay competitive, not only in thedomestic market, but internationally. There are two very strong arguments for

, 2006 Immersive Collaborative Laboratory Simulations Using a Game EngineAbstractThis paper discusses the possibility of using a commercial game engine, such as the “Source”engine used in “Half-Life 2”, to implement an immersive and collaborative virtual laboratoryenvironment that will enable multiple students to perform educational laboratory experimentsimulations. These simulations will involve real-time student interaction through a computernetwork, and they will benefit the students by stimulating the different modalities of learning, i.e.visual, audio, read/write and kinesthetic.By using an existing commercial computer game engine, the need for creating from the groundup the components that are combined into an interactive virtual world

Page 11.626.9Conclusions and SuggestionsWhen we started preparing this paper, we realized that we would not be able to providedefinite answers to all the questions without further research, especially to answer thequestion what we can do as engineering educators. Not only because of the complicatednature of the question, but also due to the fact that collaborative efforts of engineeringeducators are needed to tackle this issue. We set our premise of this paper to raise theissue, and to give the following suggestions.In this paper, we use China as an example to explore the exportation model from anengineering education perspective. Our research shows that the export process is a stagedprocess of knowledge transfer based on the market demands
