This project, entitled "Integrating Educational Software and Active Learning is sponsored by the US Department of Education's Fund for the Improvement of Undergraduate Education (FIPSE). The primary focus is the development of rich-media courseware, integration of this media into classes, and systematic iterative evaluation of the courseware. The LITE laboratory is responsible for the latter.

See examples of the engineering media created for this project at the best mechanics web site.

A number of publications, which include LITE, have been generated from this project, for example:
