-directed study outside of class — is absolutely essential. The educational delivery requirements outlined above — (1) the need to adapt presentation of coursematerial to students with different backgrounds and abilities, and (2) the need to teach in the "visual arena" —have motivated the push for use of "multimedia" in education. For multimedia instructional delivery to makesignificant inroads in higher education, though, systems must be developed that possess the following charac-teristics: (1) utilize low cost, high density, incrementally recordable audio/visual storage media; (2) utilize ubi-quitous, low-cost PCs or workstations; (3) provide a high degree of extensibility; (4) provide tree-like as well ascross-indexed access to

InterfaceIntroductionFor students to succeed in engineering design (and engineering practice) they must be able tomake design decisions that are grounded in data and analysis. The potential danger, however, inintroducing analysis and calculations too early in the design process is that this may lead thedesigner to become “fixated” on the current design idea and not explore other, potentially betterideas1, 2. This can be problematic as engineering education endeavors to teach students to bemore innovative. Thus, while it is important to teach students how to support their designdecisions with analysis, it is likewise important to help them engage in analysis without leadingto limited exploration of alternative ideas. The overarching goal of this project is to
