Abstract
A computer-based deep learning environment is described which aims to enhance the engineering science understanding of young engineers. Interactive computer simulations enable students to explore the structural behaviour of a range of generic components in a way which combines elements of play and experimentation. Graphical feedback is used in order to establish connections between abstract concepts and physical reality. Links to underlying science concepts are provided by on-line explanatory notes and "concept maps".<>
