Lecturer-student interaction is important for practical classes in Engineering Graphics that have specific features, e.g., working with graphical documents and individual assignments. Learning Management Systems (LMS) commonly do not offer appropriate tools for related tasks. As a result, students have to process their assignments outside the LMS,…

Direct linkLeland, Robert P. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2010
Pair programming was introduced into a course in engineering graphics that emphasizes solid modeling using SolidWorks. In pair programming, two students work at a single computer, and periodically trade off roles as driver (hands on the keyboard and mouse) and navigator (discuss strategy and design issues). Pair programming was used in a design…

Connolly, Patrick E. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2009
There has been a significant history of research on spatial ability and visualization improvement and related curriculum content presented by members of the Engineering Design Graphics Division over the past decade. Recently, interest in this topic has again been heightened thanks to the work of several division members on research such as the…

Cobos-Moyano, Alfonso; Martin-Blas, Teresa; Onate-Gomez, Carmen – Computers & Education, 2009
In this work, we analyze the results obtained by a group of freshmen students in a test of prior knowledge on technical drawing carried out before and after attending an introductory course on this subject. The aim of this course was to help students to gain knowledge necessary to take full advantage of the CAD software that is regularly used to…

Potter, Charles; Van Der Merwe, Errol; Kaufman, Wendy; Delacour, Julie – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2006
We have previously reported in this journal that spatial ability influences academic performance in engineering. We have also reported that spatial ability is trainable, and can be increased through instruction focused on using perception and mental imagery in three-dimensional representation. In this article, we present the results of a…

Glyer-Culver, Betty – 2002
In fall 2001 staff of the Los Rios Community College District Office of Institutional Research collaborated with occupational deans, academic deans, and faculty to develop and administer a survey of former Drafting and Engineering Design Technology students. The survey was designed to determine how well courses had met the needs of former drafting…
