particularly those deemed at-risk.Research QuestionsThis study consisted of two overarching research questions related to learner preferences in apost-secondary classroom. The primary research question was: What are the learningpreferences for college students taking a fundamental engineering design graphics courses? As afollow-up question to the primary question the investigators explored: Do students taking acollege engineering design course and categorized as “at-risk” have different learningpreferences than students categorized as “not at-risk?” The primary research question wasinvestigated and analyzed through frequency-based ordinal data pertaining to student learnerpreference(s). The second research question was evaluated through data analyzed

Thediscussion of the philosophy and the intent of the sustainable design should be added in thelecture to help address the importance of the IBL in which some students may not realize. Moreactive learning activities should be included in the class time to help students get familiar witheach other and help build a better and stronger team with better communication.

Per toETAC of ABET, student outcome (f) requires that the program must demonstrate students’ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in both technical and non-technicalenvironments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature.Structure of Computer Graphics Course The first year computer graphics course at UALR is a traditional engineering drawingscourse and the course incorporates the use of modern tools such as AutoCAD. This course is forthree semester credit hours with 30 contact lecture hours and 45 laboratory contact hours in asemester. The

work: Gantt chart visual method choice for book chapterGantt Chart: Typical Development in an F1 Season(Graphic #15)31 Two distinctive race schedules are performed in each F1 season. While the race team desperately tries to win points for the overall championship, development of next season`s car is taking place simultaneously. With the new car being completed only weeks before the following season. Since engine design takes about 18 months two power engineering teams are required, with each leapfrogging the other, providing one engine per every 9 month car development cycle.

models and reduce or eliminate grading time. Automatic grading can be used toassess many different modeling criteria, including but not limited to the proper selection andplacement of features, feature order, and use of constraints to capture design intent. The criteriaused to check the solid model can be selected to assess both procedural and strategic knowledge.Future work will involve implementation of automatic grading for quizzes, homework exercisesand/or online tutorials. We will design a range of skills assessments using the Precision LMSsystem and evaluate improvements in the students’ modeling skills. Grading of dynamic systemsmay also be investigated.Bibliography1 Lieu, D. and S. Sorby (2008), Visualization, Modeling, and Graphics for
