2 Computer Lab with Engineering Science and Basic Engineering Principles Classroom This general purpose classroom can be used to deliver an wide range of courses of study in Engineering Science and Basic Engineering. A comprehensive package of elearning instructional materials are available to support the instructor and the trainee. These are delivered using a local server, reducing the need for continuous access to the Internet. If required the computer systems can be used to deliver additional supporting theory materials that underpin the technologies covered in other classrooms and laboratories in the training facility. Innovative and intuitive elearning We supply the complete ICT infrastructure which includes 12 student workstations and an instructor s station. This connects to a large touch-screen interactive LCD display which allows the instructor present a comprehensive series of theory support materials to the whole class. Students are able to undertake a individualised learning using the student workstations. Student desks and chairs are included as well as a desk and chair for the instructor. These easy to use theory lessons include a wide variety of presentations, animations, assessments and interactive simulations for realistic experimentation. The Virtual Motor Control Lab provides simulated control experiments for a wide range of electrical machines. 2
