The goal of the material provided here is to explain Stokes' theorem in a way that is suitable for students in Engineering, Physics and Mathematics. It follows the outline that was discussed in the JEM Lisbon workshop

The learner will find:

• What it means and what is it useful for.
• Its significance in Mathematics, in Physics, and in other application areas.
• Insights about why is it true, and in particular the realization that the main root for its truth is the fundamental theorem of calculus.
