Sažetak
Computers and technologies as teaching and learning tools are now rapidly expanding into education. Mechanical engineering generally focuses on the creation and evaluation of physical things, but covers a broad range of technical, informatics and management areas. Through modeling and simulation, students not only learn a lot more about the subject, but also often have to resolve some real problems in industrial applications of the virtual technology and thus gain valuable experience. It is a challenge to the engineering education in universities which traditionally tend to lack the integration of knowledge and skills required for solving real world problems. This rapid transformation of industry into a globally interconnected enterprise has not gone unnoticed in academia, especially in engineering education. Our paper (supported by the literature review) indicated that students’ understanding of the subject matter was problematic, and that the conventional teaching strategies and resources were not up to the challenge of the very complex content being taught.
