In order to graduate engineers with such skills,instruction must take all aspects of learning into consideration1,2,3. Consequently, instructors facechallenges such as  How to engage students in deep learning?  How to strengthen the link between theory and practice?

The capability of the computer to interact with its user, to compute and then display theconsequences of that interaction in a dynamic form provides an avenue for learning that is simplynot available in the classroom or textbook.

But thefundamental premise that engineering education should provide students with the abilityto solve engineering problems as an exercise in applied sciences has not changed. Thisnotion has, however, come under increasing scrutiny in the last several years, and anumber of educators, employers and government officials have called for extensivechanges in the undergraduate engineering curriculum (1).
