Abstract :
The broad objective of the project was to use computer aided tutorials (in addition to conventional tutorials) to improve learning and assessment in fluid mechanics for civil engineering students studying open channel flow. In particular, the computer aided tutorials are intended to correct common student misconceptions and ensure that students have prerequisite knowledge. students are also able to develop problem solving skills
