Throughout the semester-longprojects, students work collaboratively with their groups and individually to generate a range ofpotential solutions to their ill-structured problems.

The authors are exploring the use of interactive digital tools as away to present large-scale concept maps that organize information and show connections acrossthe curriculum without overwhelming the user visually. As an exemplar, the authors havechosen the content in an engineering statics course.

This author firmly believes that physical models are an essential part of a balancedengineering curriculum. The expense both in terms of finances and time in devloping the modelscan be daunting, however. Indeed, the “cost”of the traditional laboratory is one reason the authorhas heard for justifying the development of computer simulation/animation programs. Apersonal concern for the author develops, though, as to whether students retain or even developan understanding of the real physical behavior of such “computerized” models. This authorasserts that computer models are best used as a supplement
