Abstract
Today, information and communication technology (ICT) plays a crucial role in our lives. Devices taking advantage of the rapid development of ICT are increasingly used to ease and provide comfort to our daily activities. This has also affected the way young engineers prefer to learn and how they are taught. Traditional methods, proven to work, may not be so attractive to students anymore, in comparison to all the widgets, apps and knowledge in various forms available over the Internet. To make courses and topics more attractive, young system engineers need to be educated taking advantage of the rapid development of technologies young are accustomed to use, including e-Iearning and interactive tools to assure their good skills and increased interest towards studies. Intelligent learning objects clearly demonstrating a topic area and allowing students to explore problem domain without restrictions in time and space will provide support for any type of course, enliven studies, and clearly serve the goal formulated here in before.
