engineering coursework and/or advanced coursework, students will learn how tovisualize objects in 3D and communicate that same object on 2D medium by developing theirspatial thinkingCourse Learning Objectives: Students will learn how to do the following:  Create isometric and orthogonal sketches based on given data  Create sketches of solid objects by combining them with other solid objects or revolving Page 24.699.7 them about one or more axes  Represent a 3-D object by “unfolding” it and sketching a flat pattern on paper or computer screen  Create the sketch of an object reflected and shown as a “sectioned

instructed to use good modelingstrategies for a robust part model, and to minimize the number of features. No additionalinstructions are given; students must select appropriate features, order of feature creation,constraints and dimensioning schemes.A variety of methods will produce the correct geometry, but only some of these approacheswould reflect best practices in modeling strategies, which the students must demonstrate to getfull credit for the assignment. For this part, it was expected that the model would be createdusing a single revolve feature for the body of the elbow, two extrusions for the flanges, adiametrally placed hole as the leader for a patterned hole set on each flange, and a single roundfeature. The internal diameter of the elbow

consistency and the level of detail in custom blocks and the overall final assembly. Include Independently Graded Individual Activities in the Project: Team projects are often carried by one or two individuals who do the majority of the work. While this may be a true reflection of what happens in the real world, it is important that students are taught the importance of full participation and contribution to a project’s success. To achieve this goal several deliverables of the team project will require individual effort that will be graded for each student. These are: o Concept Generation and Sketching: Each student will be required to generate three concepts of his or her own based on the theme agreed upon by the group

It reflects a good workingrelationship between the instructor and students, as well as the result of a clear majority ofstudents in the course with a long range, mature view of the situation. As a class they deliveredsuch an unrealistically high evaluation as an affirmation regarding future potential of the course.A number of students wrote comments in the sections reserved for them on the author’s survey.Two students wrote comments that, in the author’s opinion, seem to capture the overallimpression received when reviewing the survey results. One student observed, Dr

Upon completion of the project,students then “raced” each other to determine whether their prototype functioned as appropriate,and wrote a final report that reflected upon their design and redesign process. An example photoof students racing their wheelchair lever arm drivers is presented in Figure 1 below, along withthe students’ resulting assembly design.Figure 1: (left) Image of students testing their prototype on “race day”, (right) resulting assembly model of a student team’s prototype design.Learning Outcomes Measured:Students were provided with individual lap-sized whiteboards (12” x 18”) and markers at thebeginning of

SolidWorks Sustainability accounts for both the distance and mode oftransportation used to deliver the product throughout its supply chain: air, truck, rail, and ship.In addition to distance and type of transportation, consideration of the quality of the fuel usedmakes this model detail oriented. The fuel that is used during transportation differs with fuelsource and refining technology, and has different acidification potential from the exhaustemission16.In comparing different environmental impacts to each other that reflects a comparable scale ofeffects SolidWorks Sustainability has formulated a sequential computation plan.

It is remarkablethat the highest level is in anxiety, possibly as a consequence of insecurity caused by the lack ofexplanatory material for the proposed activities. The training is made so students can acquirebasic knowledge about orthogonal views through their own finds and intuition.Table 6.
