"Recently, off-campus delivery of university courses has become popular. There is an opportunity for delivering engineering courses using a blended learning approach where the best possible components of face-to-face and online delivery can be combined to offer flexible and dynamic engineering courses. This edited book will focus on curriculum development, preparation of course materials, new assessment tools and delivery platform that are needed to make blended and online delivery of engineering and technological courses viable. This book will also cover issues on the development of shareable resources across institutions to make blended learning more effective in engineering education"-- Provided by publisher.
