Abstract:
A new Product Development course has been established within the introduction of Bologna framework scheme at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, University of Zagreb in year 2002. E-learning support tools have been introduced with the new course. Expectations from new technology are always high, but evaluation of efforts, resources and prerequisites needed to utilize technology and maintain the benefits through generations of students are often underestimated. The proposed paper will illustrate practical experience gathered so far in an attempt to systemize and organise lessons learned. Particular attention is drawn to the learning outcomes which could suit this multidisciplinary and multicultural academic enterprise. Learned lessons will be applied to improve future courses.
