                              One notes that while the author recommends studying the living examples before
                              working home problems, they may be bypassed, as is the case with all the enrich-
                              ment resources if time is not available. However, class testing of the enrichment
                              resources reveals that they not only greatly aid in learning the material but they
                              may also serve to motivate students through the novel use of CRE principles.

                                  F.2.  For the Practicing Engineer

                                  Practicing engineers may want tQ first review the CD summary notes or
                              the summaries at the end of each chapter to refresh their memories as to what
                              they have previously studied. They can then focus on the topics that they want
                              to  study in the text using  the  web modules,  solved problems,  and interactive
                             computer modules as tutorials. They can also learn more about specialty topics
                             by using the CD reference  shelf. The flow diagram is shown in Figure P-4.


                              G. The Web

                             The Web site (http://www.engin.umich.edu/-cre) will be used to update the text
                              and the CD-ROM. It will identify typographical  and other errors in the  1st and
                             2nd printings of the 3rd editian of the text. In the near future, additional mate-
                             rial will be added to include more  solved problems as well as additional Web
                             Modules.
