Nicholas O. Awuor; Cathy Weng; Isaac M. Matere; Jeng-Hu Chen; Dani Puspitasari; Khanh Nguyen Phuong Tran – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Engineering drawing is valuable in capturing geometric features, conveying engineering ideas, and creating a blueprint of the intended product. Engineering students usually perform orthographic projections, imagining a 3D situation and sketching its 2D representation. That requires imagination and mental visualization, determined by the learner's…

Kok, Petrus Jacobus – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
Over several years, first-year pre-service education students regularly experienced difficulty with engineering graphics activities. Research has already established that these activities require the use of well-developed spatial visualisation which is, for the most part, determined by a persons' spatial experience. The importance of this study…
