Design software has become so powerful that a novice can conduct sophisticatedanalyses without knowing very much about the details or limitations of the analysis process.While it is important for engineering schools to educate students about the use of computer-aideddesign tools, they must also ensure that the students have an understanding of the underlyingmathematical models upon which these computer programs are based.

Courses in the early part of their educational experiencepresent the necessary prerequisite material for upper level courses. However, the students neverrealize the importance of this material since it is taught without any real-world, practicalapplication. Thus, the student has no initiative to retain the material and try to integrate it intotheir knowledge database.
