Web-enhanced tools for an engineering economics course

This paper describes the development of instructional materials for a course on Engineering Economics. The course is broken down into modules, sessions and activities. Modules cover material such as "Evaluation of Independent Projects". At the session level, the learner may do any of the following: read from text, participate in instructor-led classroom learning, or pursue an e-learning activity. E-learning activities were designed to allow the student to explore the relationship between aspects of a given concept, and to readily ask "what-if" type questions.
