This beautiful resource is an artistic presentation of engineering set in a context of modern-day materials and construction techniques
with a classical approach to historical influences.
It has been meticulously planned and assembled to includes images and video clips,
which are not only educational but inspiring. It is supported by a colourful wall chart (below).
The content, images and video clips, in this resource followed the building of a Bridge over the M5 Motorway to the airport and the city of Sydney, a major suburban Bus Transit way and the construction of the massive M7 Orbital Highway on the outskirts of Sydney. Other features include:
Most have ‘mouse-over’ hypertext features revealing special Animations, graphics, additional text, definitions, formulae etc.
(Many with worked solutions). One click of the Print button launches a .doc file.
Bridges, historical sites, construction processes, materials testing, environmental contexts, machinery etc.
One ‘click’ launches a Web browser for direct connection.
Most have ‘mouse-over’ hypertext features revealing special Animations, graphics, additional text, definitions, formulae etc.
using images of real bridge components.
based on relevant bridge building procedures and materials.

This DVD contains the entire 30 hour program and registration for the Engineering studies application module ‘Personal and public transport’.
It is a teacher-focused, strategy-based working classroom program with five ‘learn about’ sections that are supported by hyperlinked topic content and ‘learn to’ question files.
A Laptop Computer and Data Projector or Interactive Whiteboard allows the teacher to introduce topics, display and discuss content then reveal student assignment worksheets.
Prepared copies can be issued to students, worked on in class and answers displayed for group discussion, marking and correcting.
That’s right; for the student too! This is an approach to Teaching and Learning, which allows your students to be proactive in determining their learning outcomes. Since the students have their own copy, the teacher can have them plan ahead for future lessons.
