Defining graphicalcapability and ultimately its relationship with visual literacy becomes essential whendefending its position and purpose in formal education. The evolution oftechnology/engineering education from vocationalism to a design driven neo-vocationalismor even transferable education begins to blur the boundaries of the definition of a graphicallycapable person.Specifically in engineering and technology education there is a growing need to developtransferable skill.
