Past research has indicated that compared to traditional instructionalmethods, student-oriented instructional methods such as multi-media case studies that encouragestudent participation and active involvement in learning are better ways to accomplish theseobjectives.

The VRML technology used in this research isan open standard and inexpensive. However there are a number of limitations to the use ofVRML. The main drawback of VRML is that it is a polygon based surface representation, anddoes not allow solid data such as mass, density etc required by modern 3-D CAD systems to berepresented.
