Some aspects of computer support in learning and assessment in engineering education are discussed. It is emphasized that the use of computer support, like e.g. simulations, computations, visualizations, has to be closely connected to the formulation of the expected learning outcomes and the assessment methods. Some examples of computer support are related to the CDIO Syllabus. Some experiences from more that two decades of computer aided learning and assessment within the Division of Automatic Control at Linköping University are presented
