I'm trying to combine traditional reading comprehension exercises with the use of Internet to teach technical English, namely English for engineers.
Do you know of any sites on the Web?
Do you know of any bibliography I may consult? Because most of the papers & sites are Internet & ESL.
Thank you for your help.

I don't teach engineering students, but I do know of this British Council page:

I also like to use Rube Goldberg cartoons when teaching about technical processing sequences (you can find the link on my website below - look under 'W' for 'writing'.
