In both approaches, the main objective is to improvestudents’ visualization skills, and both courses are offered with the use of software packages.Traditional projection drafting material is referred to as 2D material, and solid modeling materialis referred to as 3D material. The reason for the study is that the trend in the past couple ofdecades, across engineering and engineering technology programs, has been to move from thetypical 2D (drafting) course content to a 3D (solid modeling) course content. Some institutionshave completely switched their approach, and some other institutions now have a hybrid offering(i.e., drafting and solid modeling in the same course). Results from this

The capstone students are required to identify aneducational need within the mechanical engineering technology program. This need is discussedwith the faculty for the development of a hands-on laboratory instrument that will facilitatelearning in the program. The results from these discussions determine the design requirementsfor the capstone project. These capstone students must also learn the design process that hasmilestones with deliverables
