engineeringthinking. The visual representation of physical ideas allows engineers to manipulate the ideasand meaningfully add increasing levels of detail. Consequently, facility in interpreting thesevisual communications is a fundamental skill for most engineers.Typical engineering documents are visual, however simply seeing the document is not enough tobe able to interpret, reason, and communicate with it. The engineer must be able to internalizethe information into a mental map of some sort and appropriately interpret the features.This case study examines how a blind mechanical engineering student was taught and learnedbasic concepts of engineering graphical representation. Assistive technologies replaced theubiquitous computer and paper visual interfaces

succeed and “need to begrown via in-house training or experience” [Adcock et al., 2015]. For example, NASA developedthe Systems Engineering Leadership Development Program (SELDP) to provide “developmentactivities, training, and education” to more quickly cultivate systems engineers [Ryschkewitch etal., 2009].Universities have responded to the growing market demand for systems engineers in a range ofways, from adding or further emphasizing elements of systems engineering to existing courses(e.g., capstone design courses; see Chaput [2016]), to creating entire programs in systemsengineering (e.g., Stevens Institute of Technology). How effective are these efforts, how can theybe improved, and, can we identify a set of best practices in doing such
