  • Abstract
    With information technology ever growing, there has been an upsurge in the higher level technical and engineering education. In addition, several companies continuously upgrade their hardware and software products and the associated engineers, programmers, and scientists need to be retrained on a regular basis. This leads to an ever growing requirement for a continuous education and learning scheme. This scheme can be applicable not only in colleges and universities, but also in industry and government organizations. The authors have been conducting investigations into Web based education applicable in the academic and industrial environment. While the web based education concept has been practiced for quite some time, the interactivity between the end users and the web host is very limited, especially if there are multiple client students at different sites. One possible and cost effective solution would be to send an email or chat message to the web host and convert that into a voice message to the person acting as the web host. The team has chosen some of the popular engineering modules such as C, C++, Java, VHDL and Matlab to be candidates for the web based voice interactive system model development. In this article, the authors present the system architecture, the implementation scheme, and the results of the (WBIEL)
