through a follow-up study that had been used in previous years to collect data oncurrent trends and issues related to the field. This paper will discuss the overarching issues andtrends currently in technical/engineering education and one significant area within the surveythat dealt directly with new instructional strategies for graphics education (i.e. distanceeducation). One section of the survey explored distance education in technical/engineeringgraphics education; as prior research suggested that changes had occurred in the instructionaltopics and practices of the field. Previous research also shows that instructors wondered if thesame topics were being taught and the same technology was being used by graphicsprofessionals as a part of their

One of the strategies used to accomplish this goal is to embed design intothe computer graphics course sequence.According to the Merriam Webster’s Online Dictionary the definition of the termembedded is to make something an integral part of the topic, which is the objective in allthree of the courses in the computer graphics sequence. The theoretical basis for usingthe embedded approach in these courses is illustrated in an article by Sutton, (2004) 5, atPurdue University involving problem-solving research outside of technology education tohelp examine the relationship

andexploring topics, and electronic document sharing, to name a few. The devices that can beutilized for education also are shifting. Students and instructors have access to information andinstruction not only from a desktop or laptop computer, but also digital tablets, smart phones, anddedicated readers. However, the form of delivery is not as important as the design of theinstruction. Technology does not automatically improve instruction unless the instructiondelivered through the technology is designed to be better. A number of studies havedemonstrated that the technology alone does not improve students’ learning and has nosignificant impact on student achievement. Researchers insist that these studies are asking thewrong question8. They state

Figure 1 clearly demonstrates the breadth of impact of adopting a cloud- based platform on the program’s curriculum. Though faculty have the option to choose the CAx tools that best suit the learning outcomes of their courses, practicality often dictates that it is easier to work with the system that students are already familiar with from earlier CAD instruction. Adopting 3DExperience would require each of the classes illustrated to re- structure experiences using the new platform. For example, MFGE 333 and 463 utilize Model-Based Definition
