The tools within Collaboration Suite make it far more than an online document repository. Collaboration Suite includes a full project management module that allows students to learn important skills such as scheduling, task tracking, accountability and reporting. Instructors or industry sponsors can choose to be as involved in student projects as they wish, easily tracking the progress of students or groups. Other powerful features include:

• Document management for tracking any kind of documents related to the project
• A CAD viewer so that students and industry sponsors can view and markup CAD files
• A message board to house all e-mail communication.

With a little help from ENGINEERING.com’s Collaboration Suite, instructors can now provide their students a real world interaction experience without burdening campus IT staff or the course instructor.
