givenapproximately three assignments throughout the semester that required them to sketchorthographic projections and isometric views of objects. These assignments were designed tohelp improve spatial visualization ability. However, the class was generally focused on 3Dmodeling skills and SolidWorks operation, and not on spatial visualization ability.A survey was also administered to assess self-efficacy and to ask the students about how helpfulthey found the different learning activities in the course. We measured self-efficacy regarding 3Dgraphics topics using the three-dimensional modeling self-efficacy scale described by Densenand Kelly [21]. We will refer to this scale as the 3DM-SES in this paper. Agreement on eachitem of the nine items of this survey

and their impressionsof the app. Students found the app engaging, easy to use, and something they would do wheneverthey had “a free moment”. 95% of the students recommended the app to a friend if they arestruggling with spatial visualization skills. This paper will describe the implementation of themobile Spatial Vis™ sketching app in a large college classroom and highlight the app’s impactin increasing self-efficacy in spatial visualization and sketching despite the small screen size.IntroductionThe use of mobile devices and specifically touchscreen technology in education has increasedtremendously over the years due to their increase in ubiquity and computing capabilities.

, including student scoreon the pretest three-dimensional modeling self-efficacy (3DSE) assessment, gender, age, andwhether or not the student had a parent with professional engineering backgrounds. The three-dimensional self-efficacy instrument consisted of nine questions, each being a 7-point Likerttype item, designed to measure students’ self-efficacy related to modeling three-dimensionalobjects [11]. Logistic regression could not identify for which subgroups of students the variableswere most significant. For these reasons, machine learning analytics software was used toexamine the predictors, and their interactions, that led to persistence in engineering degreeprograms. Machine learning has gained popularity over recent years due to its ability

canbetter devise pedagogical strategies targeted at improving self-efficacy and retention of femalestudents.The objective of this study is to determine if women do in fact put more effort into anintroductory engineering graphics class, and to determine if this extra effort can compensate fortheir lower average spatial visualization ability, resulting in equal course outcomes such as examand homework grades. We hypothesize that: 1) female students put more effort (measured asquiz scores, time spent on homework, attendance, and homework scores) into engineeringgraphics courses; and 2) that this greater effort by female students results in roughly equalaverage course and exam grades for men and women. While other studies have observed

-improvement and personal growth were found to be highly valued. In comparison with extrinsicgoals from the same study, further differences were found between intrinsic and extrinsicmotivation. Other studies have found that student motivation is directly linked to seeing valueand meeting goals and beliefs about the importance of a given task or subject.The value of motivation can be conceptualized through various approaches (e.g., learning vs.performance goals, intrinsic vs. extrinsic orientation, and interests); this motivational componenteffectively concerns students' motives for the completion of a task7. Self-efficacy has a majorrole in student motivation at both intrinsic and extrinsic levels. Students’ perceived self-efficacyinfluences as the

courses have noticed a marked increase in students’ confidencelevels over the course of the spatial training. Could a student’s confidence (and therefore theirspatial skills) influence their success and their career choices?Studies have shown the impact of confidence or self-efficacy on student success. For example,Lent et al. (1984)7 found that students reporting high self-efficacy (confidence in their ability to Page 22.1314.2successfully complete various scientific and engineering degrees) achieved higher grades andpersisted longer in scientific and technical programs than those that reported low self-efficacy.Additionally, Towle et al

Similarly, a determination of student intrinsic goal orientation, extrinsic goalorientation, task value, control of learning beliefs, self-efficacy learning performance, andtest anxiety was conducted and paired with abilities of students to visualize rotated three-dimensional objects to highlight associations/relationships among student motivation andlearning and mental rotation ability.

using an online testing toolthey developed. They found there was no significant differences in performance, howeverstudents spent more time on the online test.Other studies have found some differences in on-line versus paper exams. Deutsch, Herrmann,Frese, and Sandholzer4 found gender differences in students taking online exams. These genderdifferences were attributed to differences in computer-self efficacy, but they found thedifferences were reduced considerably after students had a single experience taking an onlineexam. McDonald5 considered score equivalence between paper and computer-based assessmentsand concluded that individual differences in computer experience, computer anxiety, andcomputer attitudes could impact the potential of some
