This article discusses how a popular application software, Asymetrix COM-PEL, can be used to design a few slides for presentation with a large group lecture; the discussion is based on the second-year engineering mathematics core subject in the School of Engineering, Nanyang Technological University. The current practice in mathematics lecture is reviewed first, followed by personal reflections on the teaching procedure. The ASSURE model is mentioned; its application enables the product to match the students' learning style and helps in accomplishing the instructional objectives. Elements considered to be important to enhance motivation, such as exemplary moving pictures, are included in the presentation. This computer-based approach will allow the student to gain valuable computer experience, which has become indispensable in engineering and other jobs. Also, it may give the student additional help, motivation, and insight into theory and applications, in classes, laboratories, tutorials, homework, and projects.
