Abstract
This paper describes how several commercial software products can be integrated into teaching the Kinematics of Mechanisms and how technology can be transformed into an advantage for the student. The authors advocate increasing the educational use of existing software while balancing the student experience with a healthy skepticism of all computer products and a wealth of hands-on activities
