This is an early prototype of a wiki-based online learning system for simulation technology.

This wiki-site will make it easy for users to collaborate on developing, upgrading, and maintaining curricular materials related to simulation technology. Contributors can easily create and edit tutorials. The wiki-site also enables users to upload related curricular materials such as homework problems and PowerPoint presentations, making it easy for the community to share these materials.

We are developing a [template] that contributors can use to create new tutorials for the site. This template will incorporate the best practices in using simulation. The use of a template will ensure that the tutorials follow a similar structure and are informed by sound pedagogical practices even though developed by different authors.

Currently, we have sample modules for learning:

• Finite-element analysis (FEA) using ANSYS
• Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) using FLUENT
• Programming using MATLAB
