Summary/Abstract: In this paper we will present e-learning implementation of one of the course from the new product development stream that has been awarded as the best e-learning course at University of Zagreb in 2013. The general conclusion to be drawn is that this type of learning was perceived as very different for the students compared to earlier courses enhancing engineering students’ interest for product development, increasing understanding for noncore-engineering aspects of product development (innovation, eco design, ergonomic, etc.) motivate self-learning and increase students’ communication and presentation capabilities.
