An innovative digital tool for materials-related engineering education

In this paper, we demonstrate how a comprehensive digital tool for materials-related teaching can be used to promote engineering knowledge, skills and understanding in an accreditation-friendly way. We consider CES EduPack, originally developed at Cambridge University (UK). A description of important features and how it is introduced in a first year class of Materials Science and Engineering at a Swedish University during 2012/13 is given. It appears suitable for flipped classroom teaching and project based learning in student groups.
