This paper deals with a web-based approach to teamwork-based learning in 3D CAD exercise class (CAD-EX) in Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Tokushima. CAD-EX class plays a key role in creative education of the Department and teamwork learning has been emphasized in the class so far. To further enhance the teamwork-based learning, a new web-based education system has been developed and introduced to the class in 2004, from which we have obtained several significant results. This paper addresses an overview of the class including its brief history, showing the solid models created by the student teams. Reviewing the results of evaluation questionnaire given to the students who took the class, this paper discusses the educational effects of our teamwork-based approach.
