Mathematica scientific computing environment is now recognized as the tool of choice at the frontiers of scientific research in engineering analysis and modeling, and it also provides a unique capability for interactive learning in technical education. Mathematica main capabilities and features can be extended to external programes via Math-Link such as NetLogo. NetLogo, one of the most widely used multi-agent modeling tools today, is a user-friendly environment for simulating complex scientific phenomena and includes 3D visualization, a Systems Dynamics modeler, a Robotics extension, and many more. This paper attempts to discuss the potential of delivering engineering mathematics instructions and explore teaching methods making use of NetLogo-Mathematica for the topics of Modelling & simulations. Learning strategies that include simulations, visualization and explorations could improve the students’ level of interest and ultimately improved learning outcomes. 2010-12-03T14:56:41Z 2010-12-03T14:56:41Z 2010-06-02 Working Paper Vol.5(2), p.464 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/10374 en Proceedings of the 1st Regional Conference on Applied and Engineering Mathematics (RCAEM-I) 2010 Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) Institut Matematik Kejuruteraan
