MCC is utilizing DELMIA's IGRIP(R) product for kinematics and robotic simulation in one of its engineering technology automation courses.

The use of these visual software tools, the college believes, will help students more effectively grasp complex theoretical concepts. "I think that the introduction of simulation into our traditional teaching methods for automation and manufacturing processes allows students to experiment with and see computerized results for themselves," said John Schneeg, assistant professor of mechanical engineering technology at Monroe Community College. "People tend to be visual learners, and we have found that simulation emphasizes these points better than solely relying on mathematical formulas." "Seeing is believing Seeing is believing is an idiom first recorded in this form in 1639 that means "only physical or concrete evidence is convincing".[1] Seeing is Believing may refer to:
