INTRODUCTION
Manufacturing is increasingly important to the balanced education of engineers in all disciplines. While specific operations and processes can often be taught in the classroom, it is difficult to convey a broader understanding of the interrelationship among design, manufacturing, and marketing, and the coordinated effort required to meet the demands of a global marketplace with high product variety and rapid response requirements. Engineering education is an art of knowledge accumulation, discovery and skill building, to ultimately guide learners in turning ideas into reality. Because engagement is crucial for the process of learning, computers utilizing the expressive forms of human interactive experience can have great impacts on effective dissemination of information. Humans have an exceptional interactive analog communication capability while computers have accuracy, consistency, fast digital data processing, and enormous number crunching pavers. Current multimedia technology allows computers to incorporate human's world of sensory experience by simulating, manipulating, and presenting it accurately and on demand. Multimedia has the ability of integrating text, graphics, still images, animation, motion video, special effects, and sound in diverse frameworks. With its nonlinear interactive instructional technology, multimedia education dynamically offers learners a sense of true interaction and self motivation. Unlike the traditional computer assisted instruction approach, use of interactive multimedia courseware modules for engineering education, which contains effective instructional strategies for skill development, aids in the building of discovery-based approach. This process gives learners more responsibilities or their own learning and emphasize on real-world applications to help them establish a solid foundations of skills. Furthermore, multimedia puts educators in the role of navigators and facilitators to help transform learners from passive recipients of information to active participants by providing the capabilities of individualized instructions and therefore excites the process of learning [1, 2]. Now our research is concentrating on a new develop technology known as Cybertronics interactive simulation game.
