Our graduates need to know not only how to use the tools of ourprofession, but when to use the most appropriate tools for the particular problem they areattempting to solve. IE majors are introduced to these tools in the IE introductory sophomorecourse.Industrial engineering has a broad range of applications, in a variety of industries. This web-basedsystem allows students to interactively control their learning pace across these application areas,and progress through them at their own pace.

In general,applied, rich problems, found in most engineering contexts, are likely to have a similarpropensity to involve a diverse set of mathematics.As a result of this study, we have a number of possible ideas that will help guide our futureresearch with this curriculum and with other engineering curricula intending to teachmathematics. For instance, it may be more appropriate to use the engineering design activity as acapstone activity after the prerequisite mathematics knowledge has already been learned in amore traditional way. The engineering activity might then serve to strengthen and reinforceunderstanding of the mathematics ideas rather than
