Abstract

AbstractAn Interactive Multimedia E‐Learning System (IMELS) is developed to provide a comprehensive problem‐based learning environment for the discipline of industrial engineering. This article gives an overview of the design of this interactive multimedia e‐learning system that facilitates the interactive, web‐based teaching and learning of industrial engineering via a problem‐based learning paradigm. To demonstrate the functionality of the system, one of the case problems that is incorporated in the system—the performance of system analysis of a production operation of a “virtual company” is presented. Through this example, the article highlights the characteristics of the system provides and discusses the significance of the features delivered by the IMELS. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
