This paper describes the underlying pedagogy and initial first year activities of a three year NSF-funded collaborative project, involving Tufts University and the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. The project is utilizing complementary institutional strengths in thermal manufacturing research and engineering education to deliver curricula to a wide spectrum of students from pre-college through practicing engineers. One category of deliverables for the project is a set of WWW-based, interactive multimedia curricular modules which will be integrated into several existing and new courses.
