This new change in teaching traditional vector statics courses will precipitateconcomitant revision in offering other traditional engineering courses as well.Introduction Engineering education is under considerable pressure to include more and new materials,to restructure the course content using new approaches and technologies and to manage aspectrum of students with diverse backgrounds in spite of the reduced total number of credits forgraduation. Most engineering curricula have become more intensive and thus students arerequired to spend more time for each

We wanted to see how well each environment would work for teaching each conceptand programming in general.We assessed the students' grasp of the chosen concepts and experiences through a pre-survey anda post-survey with quantitative and qualitative questions. Both surveys also asked the studentsabout their computing background and attitudes toward computing.
