The refinement of an existing internet multimedia tool to support teaching/learning activities concerning GRAFCET is reported here. The tool called e-GRAFCET resulted in an updated and improved version called e-GRAFCET+. The overall objective of this internet-based tool is to provide fundamental aspects regarding GRAFCET presented with animated examples, promoting students self-learning. While originally this tool was developed to be used by Portuguese speakers, now it is also available in English.
