The HPL teaching framework presents the learning material as a series ofchallenges that are posed through a “Legacy Cycle.” Three VANTH modules, covering sevenchallenges, were tested in an undergraduate Mechanical Engineering course in Fall 2003. Theclass (N=32) was divided into two groups, control and trial, based on a random assignment.The control group performed the challenge in a traditional way (pencil and paper) while thetrial group solved the challenge using the VaNTH material located at a website. For eachgroup, a pre-test, post-test, and affect ranking were administered. The students were alsosurveyed on the learning effectiveness of the various components of each

Thus, it is becoming more difficult to performresearch work in two or more related topics. At the same time, industry is placing morerequirements upon engineering graduates in order to face the new challenges imposed by a verycompetitive (world) market. One of these requirements is that engineering graduates shouldcarry out relevant projects in an independent manner within a short period of time after theirgraduation dates. The “over-crowding” and “down-sizing” of the engineering curriculums aremaking it difficult to teach the skills required to successfully carry out projects independently.At most
