Abstract

Computer based learning and computer networking can cooperate in providing a flexible and cost effective approach to engineering education problems. Our work presents a methodology for reengineering material originally developed for standalone use in view of two requirements. The first is to allow the reuse of the same material for different pedagogical scenarios. The second is to make the courseware suitable for delivery in a computer network, optimizing telematics resources use. We discuss restructuring criteria, showing their practical application in our courseware for digital electronics
