![]() The approach adopted here flows from the unifying theme of MS&E: the relationship between processing, structure, properties and performance (Figure 1). It is visual (almost all the charts in this White Paper were made with the package) and it is backed-up with down-loadable “science notes” and teaching and learning resources from which many of the schematics shown here were exported. The package includes a set of 41 micro-projects that stimulate discovery. They stimulate discovery and pose questions: why does this property change in that way when the material is processed? Why is this other property unchanged? The package includes data for the elements, data for structural, functional and biological materials, for processes for shaping, joining and finishing, tools to aid understanding of phase diagrams and resources that focus explicitly on the process-structure-property relation. The CES EduPack Materials Science and Engineering (MS&E) Package is a set of resources that allows students to explore the relationships between Processing, Structure and Properties. Experience suggests that learning is better achieved by discovery for oneself than by passive listening. ![]()
