“…Perhaps the most important aspect of a good learning environment that is required by the student is a set of tools that are interactive in nature. Many examples are available in the literature, such as the use of the Web in teaching engineering management [1], a human patient simulator to teach residents emergency management [2] and other computer packages aimed at educating the user in a particular physical event [3,4] or subject [5,6]. Several authors have discussed the usefulness of computers in education.…”

The authors have developed a computer package in Spanish for university students to help them learn physics; it is called APREFIS 1.0 and may be used with Windows 9X/2000/NT. The program helps students learn with ease, to practise the acquired knowledge and to evaluate themselves in the following topics: vector algebra, electrostatic fields, electromagnetic fields, direct and alternating current circuits, waves and an introduction to the theory of semiconductors. This software package consists of four modules: theory, problems, simulation experience and an evaluation test. These are useful as a guide for students from the start of their course to the final exam. APREFIS 1.0 has been used for more than two years by the students in La Laguna University (Spain) and its efficiency is positively evaluated.
