A multimedia centre in the School of Engineering has been established to provide a central resource for the use of computer graphics to support research and teaching. The objectives and philosophies behind this development are discussed and examples of the kinds of applications which have already used the centre are described.<>

A key component of the learning process in most engineering subjects is the solution and submission of set problems (assignment) followed by quick and accurate assessment and feedback. However, there are difficulties that can cripple the teaching, learning and assessment process, especially in very large classes. A new computer based system of individualised assignments is presented with details of its various components, student and staff responses and some of the results achieved. The new system fosters motivation, ensures minimum participation by all students and virtually eliminates plagiarism. Student attitudes towards tutorials, assignment work and their studies in general can be significantly improved. There are benefits for teaching staff also. The main cost is in the setting up of the system.<>

Recently, interactive multimedia has been introduced in many institutions to improve the quality of teaching and learning. Using new authoring computer programs, graphics and sound can now be integrated into tutorial packages. The Hypercard tutorial package "MUBEAM" was developed by the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Melbourne to teach flexural design of reinforced concrete beams and has been used successfully during the last two years. The program consists of 12 cards covering different aspects of design. A brief description of the program is given in this paper.<>

Hyperbooks, computer-aided schoolbooks, are developed for use in distance education. The learning material can be structured and linked together in a computer, so it will be easy to use for self-studies. Animations are used to visualize systems and abstract models. Simulation programs are used in examples and exercises. They will give the students quick feedback on their learning progress. The authors consider applications of hyperbooks in distance education, including engineering education.<>

Pneumatics has played an important role in the development of pneumatic technology for automation. The paper describes a system that uses icons to represent the components of the pneumatic system and CAD techniques to solve component-placing and routine design problems. Pneumatics components can easily be placed, copied and moved with this new CAD system. The software is menu-driven and the drawing and editing is done at the click of a mouse button. The drawing can easily be loaded, saved, edited and printed. There is also a text routine that allows users to add texts to the drawing.<>

This paper describes the use of multi-media in developing modules for an electromagnetics laboratory. Through the use of video and computer graphics visualisations of the invisible fields that are the object of study in the course are presented to the students in a manner that they find enjoyable and that greatly aids their understanding of the topic. The computers that can display and create these animations are also used to ease the mathematical burden that the subject presents to the students.<>

The advantages of incorporating software tools, other than simulation packages, in electrical engineering laboratory experiments are discussed. This approach supports the prerequisite lecture material and allows study and understanding of some practical issues which are best handled through a laboratory experiment. It is also shown that only through software can feedback be easily integrated in the students' work. Time and effort are optimised and difficulties in assimilating the material and correlating the results are minimised. A detailed laboratory experiment, namely performance analysis of an induction motor, which is significantly enhanced with the support of a software package called Mathcad, is provided as an example.<>

Visual Electromagnetics is a project that aims to visualise and bring forward the physical phenomena of Electromagnetics. A first product of the project is a demonstration engine called IDA. The demonstrations in IDA are self-contained interactive animations of high graphical quality, which are intended to be used at lectures and problem sessions. A simple and powerful technique to generate field images is presented.<>
