Engineering education is being recognized to be more important to maintain high position in Japanese technology advantage. However, the technology detachment becomes serious among young people. In order to avoid such circumstances, appropriate engineering education systems are being searched. We are designing a CAD/CAE education system with an attempt of combining real and digital mockup concept into an exercising schooling. As a background, we have introduced a new CAD/CAE system including solid modeler (SolidWorks), structure analysis with FEM (DesignSpace) and mechanical analysis system (DDM) for every student. After learning the operation with exercises for 1.5 years, this final exercising lessons are to be learned. As a real product base, we choose LEGO block. The aim of this exercise is to make the student to know the importance of real and digital consideration for any mechanical design.
