Hands-on interaction with machinery is a possibility to enhance engineering design education. Based on the existing approach of an interactive machine part exhibition [1], a concept has been created to improve a first year drawing course by the use of functional mock-ups. These mock-ups are didactically prepared to teach students typical machine element setups. The machine part exhibition and mock-ups are used to create a framework that integrates hands-on education with the traditional teaching approaches. A preview of the currently performed evaluation by integrating the new concept into the design teaching is given.
